[Reporter Yao Yuehong/Taipei Report] The 165 anti-fraud hotline of the Police Department received a large number of reports from the public on the 3rd, alleging that NT$100,000 was transferred from the Wing Fung Bank account to Fubon Bank in an unknown manner. After receiving the report, the police immediately assisted in notifying the receiving bank. The bank deducted the money and intervened in the investigation. As of 12:16 noon, the police had received a total of 68 reports and found that the victims were highly concentrated in Yunlin men with ID numbers starting with P1. The police are further clarifying the case.

In response to reports on the Internet of multiple incidents of deposits disappearing out of thin air, the police immediately contacted Wing Fung Bank. After verification, the bank's internal audit unit was formally requested to find out the cause of the incident as soon as possible and provide relevant connection records and information for police investigation. At the same time, the police also actively assisted people who had experienced the same situation and went to the police agencies in their jurisdiction to complete formal reporting procedures to facilitate subsequent investigations and protect the rights of victims.

It is understood that on the 3rd, a number of Sino-Fung Bank depositors successively posted that 100,000 yuan was transferred out of their accounts to a specific Fubon Bank account for no reason. A victim surnamed Yang pointed out that he was surprised to see transaction records when he checked the mobile application and communication software at around 9 a.m., but during the whole process, the transaction records were completely hidden. None of them received any text messages or verification code notifications. Many netizens also reported encountering the same situation. Some even suffered disaster even if they only turned on the transfer function of the agreed account. The victims even discovered that each other’s ID card numbers and the first digit were both P, which represents Yunlin County, raising concerns about targeted crimes.

Wing Fung Bank emphasized that it has launched a comprehensive investigation and confirmed that not all the transferred amount went to the criminals, and the money is still stranded in the Fubon Bank account. In order to calm the panic of depositors, Wing Fung Bank announced at 3 pm that the bank will advance the money to the stolen depositors. The detailed system loopholes and reasons for the occurrence are still pending continued investigation by the bank and the police.
