Supermarket logistics has become a new channel for fraud groups to launder money and collect stolen goods. According to statistics from the Criminal Police Department, from January to September this year, there were more than 2,000 fraud cases involving the use of supermarkets to send debit cards, passbooks, cash, gold or SIM cards to stores. The fraud group tricked victims into sending property to supermarkets by transmitting shipping codes, thereby concealing their whereabouts and making it more difficult for police to detect.

There is no need to verify your identity when picking up the package, and the rider can take it with low risk.

The police traced and found that some fraud groups were highly dependent on the "convenient delivery" service of 7-11 supermarkets. The main reason is that the system has three major characteristics: overseas online billing, online billing without verification, and cash on delivery payment without identity confirmation; Invisible environment The fraud machine room outside can generate the shipping code remotely, and then remotely control the domestic victim to go to the supermarket ibon machine to print the receipt and send the package; because there is no need to check the identity document when picking up the package, the rider can take away the stolen goods with low risk, forming a breakpoint in the investigation.

A few days ago, some people met a netizen who claimed to be a stock teacher on Threads, and was persuaded by his assistant to invest in gold futures. The victim was asked to package the gold and send it out using the delivery code. He also told the store clerk to call it "daily necessities" if asked, resulting in the victim being defrauded out of millions of dollars. In addition, fraud groups often use tricks such as applying for loans, paying salary cards for job hunting, verifying online shopping cash flow, or paying customs package clearance fees to deceive people into sending them.

Criminal Bureau: Giving you a code and asking you to send it is a trap.

The Criminal Bureau reminds you that if the other party asks to go to the supermarket to send property, including sending a debit card, you may become an accomplice of the personal account, and sending a SIM card may be used to apply for a social account or make a fraudulent call; do not listen to strangers' instructions to send valuable items. If you encounter the other party providing a code and asking to send something, it may be a trap. If you have any doubts, please call the 165 anti-fraud consultation hotline or 110 for verification immediately.
