Wechat Is Now "CEO High Imitation Group" Hidden Hoax.

In May 3rd, Hou Jie, who was doing business in Beijing, told reporters that he was cheated 150 thousand yuan by "Acquaintances" on WeChat.

Hou Jie recalled that at the beginning of this year, a business friend suddenly borrowed 150 thousand yuan from WeChat.

Because the surrounding friends often encounter the problem of capital turnover, he did not think much of the "acquaintance" to pfer accounts.

"When the money was exchanged, the other party didn't make any noise. I called, and my friend said he didn't ask me to borrow the money," but Hou Jie had no idea when he passed the cheater's add friend verification. "Maybe the head and personal presentation are all like my friends, so I didn't think much about it."

Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau network security corps responsible person, such a friend through WeChat, posing as an acquaintance fraud case showed a high trend.

Network security experts say that in such fraud, the deception person can pretend to be an acquaintance, information leakage or the main reason.

In January 22nd this year, Zhang Yan, a financial manager of a company in Beijing, saw the application of WeChat friend sent by the boss in the early morning. Although he had added a micro signal before, he thought that there might be two instructions for the leader to have a separate instruction, so he quickly added it to a friend.

Just after verification, Zhang Yan received instructions from the boss to let her send a remittance of 2 million to a trading company in Shenzhen, and it must be done at once.

Afraid to delay the boss's business, Zhang Yan didn't think much about it and sent money to the bank.

Qian just remitted, "boss" and let the remittance 2 million, the heart doubts Zhang Yan, this only trembling to call the boss, the result confirmed that he had encountered telecommunications fraud.

Zhang Yan quickly called the police.

At 11:28 in the morning, Li Xiang, a police station of the Haidian branch, received contact with Zhang Yan immediately after receiving the alarm.

Li, on the one hand, appease Zhang Yan and let her freeze money on the one hand.

According to the reporter, he contacted the police specially responsible for freezing fraud in Shenzhen. Through WeChat news, it was learned that 2 million money had been quickly divided into 7 times, of which a small portion of the money had been taken away, and the rest of the accounts had been frozen by subcontracting with Shenzhen branches.

After successfully holding most of the money, the police will fax it to the Shenzhen police for the proof issued by Zhang Yan.

In the end, most of 2 million was recovered.

Haidian police said the case happened during the Spring Festival, coincided with the high incidence of fraud cases.

At the same time, police also suggested that the telephone, WeChat and QQ remittance instructions issued by "leaders" would easily fall into the trap of criminals if they were not verified in person.

In February 5th this year, Shanghai point Rong Financial Information Service Co., Ltd. certified micro-blog "point melting network" said, found a group of dozens of counterfeit Internet financial enterprise CEO set up WeChat group, "dot melting network" founder Guo Yuhang impressively listed.

In this regard, "point melting network" statement, the WeChat group has nothing to do with Guo Yuhang and dot fusion network.

Since then, a number of celebrities in the financial circles who have appeared in this group have also rumours that they are "fake" in their own group.

Insiders analyzed that the "CEO high imitation group" hidden the risk of fraud. "After being dragged into this group, the other side may be able to trap you to pfer accounts on the grounds of high return commercial projects".

A Female Hostess from a TV station in Guangdong also confirmed to the Beijing news that in December last year, a fraudsters had used WeChat's own head to form a WeChat group and ask their friends for a red envelope.

The other party even played the name of "deciding to go to the poor mountain area of Shidian County, Baoshan, Yunnan, and visit the left behind children".

According to the screenshot provided by netizens, the fraudsters said in their circle of friends, "thank you just for the donation of ninety thousand and four hundred of the donations from the director and colleagues, and the donation of WeChat donations and account donations from distant friends, amounting to 123673 yuan."

In addition, in March of this year, Ms. Chan, the financial director of an asset management company in Shanghai, was dragged into a WeChat group called "company executives discussion group". The names and avatars in the group are exactly the same as the personal information commonly used by the executives of the clients. Chen Nv's "boss" is also in the group.

After entering the group, the "boss" specifically asked for Ms. Chen, who handled the accounting business specifically, and asked her to return the 765 thousand yuan deposit to be paid to a company before.

Ms. Chen firmly believed that she immediately pferred 765 thousand yuan to the bank account designated by the boss.

Recently, the reporter confirmed the matter.

The sum had been diverted to ABC outlets elsewhere.

According to a press survey, WeChat users suffered mainly from two loopholes.

First, because there is no full real name authentication, strangers can disguise the names and photos of mature people.

At the same time, reporters also found a WeChat screenshot camouflage online, claiming to be able to turn their image into anyone.

Second, fraudsters can hide in the WeChat group through Trojan horses, familiarity with the environment and the context of dialogue between the parties.

Then fraud.

A few days ago, Liu Yang, an anti fraud expert at the 360 hunting network platform, analyzed that this kind of WeChat deception. In the early stage, it mainly disguised itself by understanding the company's internal information, such as the organizational structure, the boss's information and financial information, then disguised itself as the boss WeChat (WeChat was set up as the boss's head and name), plus financial requirements for pfer, or the formation of a fake senior management group, so that after the financial affairs came in to pretend to be senior executives to pfer accounts.

"And other leaks also exist in large numbers, such as unscrupulous businesses stealing and selling, Trojan horse attacks, phishing websites fraud, second-hand cell phone divulging and new hacking technology theft."

Liu Yang said.

Beijing Public Security Bureau network security corps anti fraud leader Wang Min introduced that in daily life, when we sweep the two-dimensional code, the risk of micro signal leakage, in addition, a lot of WeChat and mobile phone related, the suspect by entering the phone number, you can get the victim's WeChat.

In April 28th, a reporter interviewed the WeChat team on WeChat's "acquaintance" fraud.

How to prevent fraudsters from using Trojan horses and

The WeChat team did not respond to the fraud by modifying the device.

In the interview, the WeChat team said that in many links of WeChat's chat process, they have set up a security prompting function for users.

According to the situation of financial fraud, when the "account", "pfer", "bank" and other contents appear in the text message, the system will automatically pop up, "please be alert to any behavior that requires you to get or ask you to enter the account password, and make sure that the identity of the other party and the official website are connected."

At the same time, the accounts that had ever been reported by financial fraud should be processed by title.

Yesterday, reporters on a number of WeChat accounts on the simulation of the request for a pfer of dialogue, no WeChat team claimed the prompt information.

Xu Rong, director of Beijing Zhuhao law firm, believes that in the above cases,

On the WeChat platform, the implementers obtained the head images, names and other relevant information of the victim's superiors in advance by various means. Because WeChat was not real name, could not detect the authenticity, cheat the victim's trust, and then put forward the request for urgent payment, which was very confusing to the victim.

In the final analysis, this is a hidden danger brought by WeChat's non real name system.

It seems that although the most responsible party in the case is the victim of fraud, and the victim of subjective discrimination is not strong enough to cause huge financial losses, but as a platform for the implementation of crime, WeChat also has greater legal liability.

WeChat officials should recognize that as the main social platform for hundreds of millions of Chinese people, it has the legal responsibility of real name authentication to help users avoid financial losses.

As long as WeChat implements the real name authentication system, the above fraudsters will have no room for fraud, and the above crimes will not happen.

In fact, the contradiction between WeChat's non real name system and WeChat's payment of financial functions has become more and more serious. It even conflicts with the "non bank payment institutions' network payment business management measures". The measures put forward specific requirements for the real name system. The class name Payment institutions have more than 95% of their real name system, and the B class also needs to reach more than 90%. According to the information introduced by Xu Feng, the former head of the Mobile Network Management Bureau of the National Network letter office, by the end of 2014, WeChat's real identity registration ratio was 80%.
