An old man in Shanghai encountered a scam and wanted to invest some money to catch the liar. What will you do when you encounter a financial scam?

This is an era of the Internet, and it is also an era of rampant online fraud. Young people are ok, and they have better discrimination. They will not be easily fooled by ordinary online scams, but for the elderly, these online scams are somewhat unpredictable. First, the elderly are old and have poor ability to distinguish information. In addition, the elderly are more likely to trust others and have less vigilance. These two reasons make it easy for the elderly to become victims of online fraud.

An old man in Shanghai suffered from online fraud. Here's the trick. The swindler said that he could provide free travel opportunities for the elderly. As long as the old man pays him a few hundred yuan, he can get a full refund after the trip. Such a good thing, I knew it was impossible when I thought about it, and the pie would not be wasted, but the simple old man was cheated. ......

After the old man was cheated, he chose to call the police. The old man was cheated of one hundred dollars. One hundred dollars is also very important to an old man, so the old man chose to call the police. After understanding the situation, the police tracked down the liar, but due to technical conditions, the police failed to catch the liar. Many online scams are like this. Liars cheat with fake mobile phones and fake vests, and even bank cards are applied for by others, which is difficult to trace. After telling the old man that he could not recover the money, the old man had a plan. He asked the police if he could transfer more money to the liar and give it to the liar. Quote? Get up, boy, the old man's idea makes the police don't know whether to cry or laugh. The police said it was difficult to find a liar. Even if you transfer money again, the liar will not reveal his identity. This money is no different from throwing it into the sea. In the end, the old man chose to give up at the suggestion of the police.

I have encountered financial fraud. Personally, I often encounter some online fraud and financial fraud. The most common financial scam is p2p. If you deposit 1 10,000 yuan, you will get a 20% return in one month. Even if Buffett comes, you can't have such a high return. Obviously, these are all killing pigs. At first, they will really provide you with the promised income, but later, when you have invested enough money, they will directly freeze the money you have invested, and it is too late to cry without withdrawing money. This Ponzi scheme has been cheated for hundreds of years. When I am fooled, I will think of a sentence, that is, there is no such thing as a free lunch. If you can make so much money without working, why do people still work? Why not make this risk-free investment directly? As long as you can think like this, you will never be fooled.
