Cigarettes fraud prevention knowledge

1. How to prevent cigarettes from being switched

Tobacco Online reported the case according to "New Tobacco": Some time ago, the monopoly inspectors of the Tobacco Monopoly Bureau of Zhouzhi County, Shaanxi Province received reports from consumers. They claimed that the "Furong King" sold by Qiwayan Hotel on Nongshang Street in the county was fake.

The monopoly inspectors immediately rushed to the Qiwayan Hotel to investigate and collect evidence. They found two counterfeit "Furong King" cigarettes on the spot, one of which had been dismantled. The "Furong King" cigarettes sold to the reporter were from This was taken from an opened counterfeit cigarette.

The store has always been law-abiding and upright in its past operations. Not only does it have no bad records of illegal operations, but it also actively cooperates with various tasks of the tobacco department. Looking at these two fake "Furong King" items, shop owner Wang Qiwa was confused. She kept emphasizing that she did not purchase goods through random channels, nor did she sell cigarettes for others. Based on the recent cases of cigarette repackaging in the county, the sales staff initially determined that these two counterfeit cigarettes may have been repackaged.

According to Wang Qiwa's recollection, an old man did come to buy cigarettes and alcohol that morning. He first asked for two "Furong King" cigarettes, and then asked for two bottles of wine. When the wine was brought, The old man also said that alcohol was too expensive, so he stopped smoking and drinking. He didn't think much about it at the time, but in the afternoon he was reported for selling fake cigarettes.

Comment and analysis: After investigation and analysis, we came to the conclusion that these two "Hibiscus King" items were indeed subcontracted by someone, and it should be the work of the old man. However, this old man's "transfer package technique" is actually not new. It is a common method of "first want this, then that, and then don't want either, and take the opportunity to adjust the package." The old man probably made the switch when Boss Wang turned around to get the wine. Boss Wang probably relaxed his vigilance when he saw that the customer was an old man.

Reminder: Specialty sales personnel in various places often publicize subcontracting cases to merchants to make merchants more vigilant. We have also reported many times on subcontracting methods, but some merchants are still deceived. Here, we remind the majority of cigarette retail merchants to be more vigilant in daily operations to prevent cigarettes from being repackaged:

First, be vigilant at all times. Don’t think that all the people who come to buy things are customers, and they may be thieves. Don’t let down your guard because the people who come to buy things are “kind-faced” or old people with kind-hearted faces. You should be more vigilant when dealing with customers who come to the store, even if they are regular customers. It is essential to be “on guard against others”. Especially for those customers who have just received the goods and then return them for various reasons, we must pay attention and carefully check whether there are any problems with the returned goods.

The second is not to let the goods leave your sight. Whether the perpetrator is one person, two people or even more than one person, the person who ultimately implements the subcontracting must be the person holding the goods. When business is busy, it is best to have helpers to prevent fraudsters from taking advantage of you.

The third is to frequently read magazines such as "New Tobacco" to learn the knowledge about preventing cigarette fraud and package manipulation. It is best to post this knowledge in a conspicuous place in the store, so that you can always remind yourself to strengthen safety precautions. Awareness is also a warning and deterrent to fraudsters.

Fourth, stores with conditions should install monitoring equipment. Monitoring equipment can record the "tricks" of fraudsters and provide evidence for the public security organs to detect cases. Some fraudsters will feel guilty when they see that there is surveillance in the store, thus giving up the idea of ??"taking action".

4. How much do you know about anti-fraud speech?

As the New Year is approaching, all kinds of scammers have become rampant, all trying to get some New Year goods. Whether it’s the clichéd “winning text message”, relatives and friends who need money urgently for something, or the pitiful life without money, poor fellow villagers, children... etc. are flocking to us. These true and false information often leave people at a loss as to what to do, and they may fall into a trap if they are not careful.

This morning, my grandma and I went out to buy rice. When we reached the intersection, a white car passed us quickly. I was about to complain, but the car suddenly stopped and a middle-aged woman got out of the car and walked straight to us. He greeted his grandma: "Excuse me, aunt, do you have an old Chinese medicine doctor here who specializes in treating paralysis? My son has been paralyzed since he was six years old. I heard from others that this Chinese medicine doctor is very skilled in medicine. I came here because of his reputation. Please You can get in the car and show me the way, okay?" After hearing this, grandma shook her head and said, "We just moved here not long ago, and we haven't heard of such an old Chinese medicine practitioner. Please ask someone else!" The woman listened and said, I had to leave disappointed.

In the afternoon, I listened to my grandma chatting with several elderly people in the community, and I learned that the woman was actually a liar, specializing in deceiving those confused elderly people. She took advantage of the elderly people's warm-heartedness, tricked them into getting into their cars, and then kidnapped and extorted them. I breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this: Fortunately, grandma didn't know about this old Chinese medicine doctor, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Scammers take advantage of people's sympathy and kindness and design various scams. Many people often fall into traps because they are unable to react at the moment or have poor awareness of fraud prevention. But as long as you stay vigilant, stay calm, observe, use your brain, and adapt to circumstances, scammers will have no chance to take advantage of you.

Let’s join hands to master the knowledge of anti-fraud, be flexible in seeing through scams, and make our lives full of sunshine!

5. Is there any simple common sense that can identify the authenticity of cigarettes?

How to distinguish the authenticity of cigarettes? Since there are many fake and inferior brand-name cigarettes on the market, ordinary consumers can distinguish them from the following ten aspects.

1. Take a look at the package. The transparent paper of the authentic famous cigarette packs is flat, and the seams are sealed with a soldering iron to make them smooth and smooth; the seals of the packs are mechanically glued.

Fake strip bags are often packaged with defective old crystals, which are uneven and smooth; the edges and seals are often bonded with glue; the strip bags are loosely packed and have uneven softness and hardness. 2. Look at the cigarette box.

The small packets of famous cigarettes are packaged in transparent paper. The pull cords are in the shape of a small platform and are firmly and flatly bonded. The transparent paper of fake cigarettes is uneven and loose, and the pull-tab is usually flat-shaped, and most of them have no head; the pull-tape and the transparent paper are not bonded; the transparent paper of the cigarette box is uneven after being pulled apart.

3. Look at the trademark three times. The trademarks of famous cigarette packages and packets are the same, with clear patterns and writing; fake cigarettes have rough printing patterns, different colors, unclear handwriting, some incomplete letters, and errors and omissions in Chinese pinyin and English.

4. Look at the mouth flowers four times. The mouthpieces of famous cigarettes are usually printed with the same manufacturer name as the bars and boxes, and the width is the same.

The joint is a combination of two thin strips, which is easy to open without breaking. The fake cigarette's mouth decoration is inconsistent with the manufacturer's name on the strip and box, and the width is different. The mouth decoration is sealed with glue or paste. Not easy to open. 5. Look at the eye of the needle five times.

Pinholes are left by the mechanical packaging of cigarettes. The two scratches at the corners on both sides of the bottom of the horizontal packaging box, and the scratches on one side of the vertical package after the seal is opened, are pinholes. But the fakes are hand-packed, with no needle holes and obvious scissor marks.

6. Look at the cigarettes. The cut of the famous brand filter tip is neat, without stubble, the rolled cigarette is even in thickness, moderately soft and hard, the steel seal, machine number, and month are clear, the position is neat up and down, the surface of the cigarette is clean, and there is no cigarette powder at the overlap; the opposite is true for fake cigarettes.

7. Talk to Qikan. Famous cigarettes have a full spout and no air leakage. Fake cigarettes generally do not have filter paper in the tip, and the spout is loose and easy to leak.

8. 8. Look at shredded tobacco. Famous cigarettes have fewer cut tobacco stems and have been expanded to make the cut tobacco oily and shiny.

Fake cigarettes have many tobacco stems, and there is even a mixture of tobacco in the tobacco, which is dull and greenish brown. 9. Nine smells.

Famous cigarettes have a natural fragrance unique to tobacco, while fake cigarettes are overly spiced or use low-quality flavors, which may have an unpleasant flavor smell or have a bland aroma. 10. Ten burning breaths.

Famous cigarettes have a pure smoking aroma. The strength is appropriate, the *** is small, the aftertaste is comfortable, it does not automatically extinguish after ignition, the ash is gray-white, and is not easy to scatter; fake tobacco leaves are generally not fermented, have a pungent throat feel, and an unpleasant aftertaste; they are easy to extinguish after igniting, and the ash is gray-black. The soot explodes outward and falls easily.

6. What are the basic strategies for preventing and identifying fraud?

There are five basic strategies for preventing and identifying fraud: Strategy 1: For criminals who lie about helping, transfer them directly to the relevant units The police remind you about the tricks of the phone: The telephone numbers of the public security, bank and communication operator systems are not a switchboard, and calls between each other cannot be transferred directly.

Strategy 2: "Seeing is not believing", don't believe the number on the caller ID easily. Scammers often use "arbitrary number display" software to cover up their real numbers and falsely display the phone numbers of state agencies to defraud citizens' trust.

Police remind: Citizens should not be gullible when receiving similar calls. If you have any questions, you can hang up the phone and call back to confirm (the "any number display" function of the gateway phone is a single call, and the number displayed when the customer calls back will be Dial the real phone number being impersonated and ask on the spot to find out the problem). Strategy 3: When handling cases, the police will never charge fees in any form, nor will they require citizens to transfer money or open online banking for fund operations. If you encounter such a situation on the Internet, do not do it. Call the police directly.

Strategy 4: Don’t divulge personal information easily. The police remind: When public security, procuratorate, court and other state agency staff perform their official duties and need to inquire about information from citizens, they will consult the parties in person and make relevant records. They will never learn about citizens’ private information such as account deposits over the phone. If it involves handling a case , work certificates and relevant legal documents must be issued in person, and interviews must be conducted in person. The police will not take notes over the phone, nor will they require citizens to provide bank card account numbers, passwords, balances and other private information without presenting relevant certificates. .

7. Beg for knowledge on preventing fraud

1. Begging or deceiving

It is not uncommon for people to disguise themselves as monks or nuns and commit fraud. In the name of alms, they claim to build temples and defraud money. What's more, some even hold certificates from the Buddhist Council. Many people have been deceived and regret it. The construction of temples should be donated by charitable organizations or individuals, and monks should never be allowed to come out for alms in their own name.

2. The trap of winning a lottery during shopping

Some shopping malls will adopt many unfair business methods to make you fall into the "trap" of consumption in the joy of "winning". They may use shopping lottery methods to let you win prizes, and the prizes are to purchase certain goods at "discounted" prices; or they may give you discount coupons, so that you can buy again and again due to the attraction of discounts, and you only find out after you return home that you have bought some goods again and again. I regretted buying some products I didn’t need at all.

3. You should be wary of such cash machines

Some scammers put "emergency notices" on the bank's ATM machines: Our bank's ATM machine is out of order, please follow the following procedures. This is likely to be a trap set by scammers. The money is very likely to be deposited into the scammer's account, causing huge property losses to some citizens who lack vigilance.

4. Teach you to identify counterfeit banknotes

First, look at the color: bright colors, clear patterns, and clear lines; second, feel the paper: it is firm and feels heavy; third, listen to the sound : When rubbed, the sound will be clear and crisp; the fourth is to identify the watermark: the watermark pattern can be seen against the light.

5. Avoid "making friends" when going out

People who often travel alone will inevitably chat with fellow passengers during the journey, but do not be impersonated as a "general manager" or "general manager". Don’t talk about business while traveling and let your “friends” cheat you out of your money.

6. Beware that matchmakers are scammers

Some scammers take advantage of the eagerness of older men and women to court a partner and put on the guise of "matchmaker" to defraud. Therefore, after entering a marriage agency, you must first check whether it has a license issued by the relevant department, and secondly, whether its fees are reasonable and protect your own rights and interests.

7. Fake mobile phones

The perpetrators falsely claimed that imitation mobile phones were worth tens of yuan each as parallel imports and sold them on the road at prices ranging from 200 yuan to 500 yuan. To buy mobile phones, go to regular shopping malls. Selling on the roadside with people "watching" is usually a scam.

8. Fake recharge cards

The perpetrators brought invalid recharge cards to the store in advance and pretended to buy the same type of recharge cards. When the salesperson was not paying attention, they quickly changed the cards and fled.

Precautionary measures: Keep an eye on your sales items and don’t let scammers divert your attention. Samples of recharge cards can be displayed on the counter glass.

9. Borrowing mobile phones

The perpetrators invited netizens to meet in teahouses and other places, and then borrowed their mobile phones from netizens on the grounds that their mobile phones were out of battery, and because there was noisy people in the room. He made the call outdoors on the pretext of unclear or no signal, and then fled. Precautionary measures: Try not to see netizens who don’t know the details, and use the reason that their mobile phones are waiting for a call back to imply that they are vigilant.

10. Introducing famous doctors

The perpetrators used the pretext of introducing famous doctors to elderly patients near hospitals and pharmacies. After gaining the trust of the victims, they defrauded money in the name of charging introduction fees. Preventive measures: You can ask the introducer for information about "famous doctors"; when going to a private clinic, you must see the medical license.

11. Short message "winning"

The perpetrators send the winning information to mobile phone users in a group call (for example: the prize is a computer). When the victim contacted him, he was asked to pay a tax and postage by remitting money to a designated account. When encountering such "good things", you might as well ask experienced people for advice. Ask a few more questions why? And inform the public security agency of the account number so that the source can be traced.

12. Fraud by pretending to be college students

The perpetrators often choose busy areas such as roads, markets, stations, shopping malls, etc., and falsely claim that they are students from a prestigious university in other places, and come to Heze to visit and steal their wallets. They secretly ask for travel expenses and other excuses to deceive the sympathy of passers-by, especially young women and female high school students, thereby achieving the purpose of fraud. Precautionary measures: You can ask the university for specific details and call the school as an excuse. If the other party looks panicked, call the police immediately.
