My uncle was tricked into buying 20,000 yuan of anti-cancer drugs during a free trip. Is this a fraud?

The uncle was deceived into buying 20,000 yuan of anti-cancer drugs during a free trip. This behavior is a fraud. Uncle Ju's son noticed something was wrong and took the old man to the hospital for examination and found that the old man did not have cancer. So far, the travel agency knows that it is in the wrong, has taken back the medicine, and refunded Uncle Ju the money he paid for the medicine.

At the same time, we need to pay attention to the issue of low-priced tours. This behavior is fraud. "Unreasonable low-price tourism" is a stubborn disease in the development of China's tourism industry. This disease emerged when the tourism company services were relatively backward in the last century. This usually means attracting tourists at prices lower than operating costs. During the tourism process, it is illegal to obtain benefits and disrupt the order of the tourism market through mandatory additional charges, forced shopping consumption, and forced increased tourism consumption. Scenic spots, etc. Although entering the era of popularization and individual tourists, the proportion of group travel has dropped significantly. However, due to constraints of information asymmetry, economic conditions and other factors, many tourists still choose low-cost group travel.

Some tourists know that this is a "tour group", which may force them to shop and add self-funded attractions, but they still think it is a cost-effective option. Some old people have a lucky mentality and think that as long as they insist on not shopping and achieve the purpose of the trip, the tour guide will not do anything. Currently, most seniors are supported by just one child. For one thing, kids are busy. On the other hand, older people often feel that their physical condition is not comparable to that of younger people, and they often need in-home nannies. This takes an emotional toll on them and they crave care from others. They don’t want to be ignored or abandoned as they age. This type of scammers tend to grasp the psychology of the elderly, arrange young salesmen, regard themselves as the younger generation, introduce the goods in detail, and have polite language and behavior so that most elderly people feel needed on a spiritual level. and attention. If they have an empty or semi-empty nest box, they are more eager for family affection and communication. In the "lecture" on health care products, the young salesman had a "family feeling" communication atmosphere with them, which the elderly enjoyed very much. They would rather spend money to repurchase many unnecessary health products than engage in emotional exchanges.

As elderly consumers age, their body organs age, their resistance becomes weaker and weaker, their thinking ability becomes slower and slower, and their ability to judge and distinguish right from wrong is also declining. . Moreover, most elderly consumers have experienced hardships in life, are simple in nature, and are accustomed to viewing the world with a kind eye. This is one of the reasons why they are deceived.
