전북경찰청, 추석 앞두고 사이버 사기·스미싱 주의 당부

Quick Look

전북경찰청은 추석 명절을 앞두고 중고거래 사기 및 스미싱 범죄가 증가할 것으로 예상된다며 주의를 당부했다. 경찰은 현혹되지 말 것, 출처不明 링크 클릭 금지, 보안 설정 강화, 피해 신고 이력 조회, 증거 자료 첨부 신고 등을 권고하며, 신효섭 청장은 전담수사팀 편성과 엄정 대응을 강조했다.

AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

매년 명절 전후에는 중고거래 플랫폼에서 선물 세트나 상품권을 저렴하게 판매한다고 속여 대금만 가로채는 사기 범죄가 다수 발생하고 있으며, 택배 확인·명절 인사·모바일 상품권 증정·교통법규 위반 과태료 조회 등을 사칭한 문자로 악성 앱 설치를 유도하는 수법도 반복되고 있다.

전북경찰청은 추석 명절을 앞두고 사이버 사기·스미싱 범죄가 기승을 부릴 것으로 예상된다며 16일 주의를 당부했다.

경찰에 따르면 매년 명절 전후에는 중고거래 플랫폼 등에서 선물 세트나 상품권 등을 저렴하게 판매한다고 속여 대금만 가로채고 잠적하는 사기 범죄가 다수 발생하고 있다.

아울러 택배 확인·명절 인사·모바일 상품권 증정·교통법규 위반 과태료 조회 등을 사칭한 문자로 악성 앱 설치를 유도해 소액 결제를 일으키거나 금융정보를 탈취하는 수법의 범죄도 반복되고 있다.

경찰은 사이버 사기 피해 예방을 위해 고가 제품을 파격적인 할인가로 판매한다는 등의 광고 내용에 현혹되지 말고 사업자 정보·판매자 이력 등을 면밀하게 확인해야 한다고 조언했다.

또 확인되지 않은 문자메시지의 인터넷 주소 링크는 절대 클릭하지 말고, 출처를 알 수 없는 앱이 함부로 설치되지 않도록 휴대전화 보안 설정을 강화해야 한다.

거래에 앞서 경찰청 '사이버 사기 피해 신고 이력조회' 서비스를 통해 피해 신고 이력을 조회하면 피해 예방에 도움이 된다.

만약 사이버 사기로 금전적 피해가 발생했다면 이체 내역서와 사기 피해 발생 화면 등 증거 자료를 첨부해 신고해야 한다.

이후 경찰서에서 발급받은 사실확인원을 이동통신사·게임사 등 관련 사업자에게 제출해 피해 구제를 신청할 수 있다.

신효섭 전북경찰청장은 "사이버 사기 범죄에 대응하기 위해 전담수사팀을 편성해 상시 단속 체계를 갖췄다"며 "서민 경제를 위협하는 사이버 범죄에 대해 엄정 대응하겠다"고 말했다.

Open Questions

  • 올해 추석 기간 동안 사이버 사기 피해 규모는 어느 정도일 것으로 예상되는가?
  • 전북경찰청의 전담수사팀은 언제부터 운영되었으며, 구체적인 단속 실적은 어떠한가?
