Wang, Po-Chi associate professor was interviewed by TVBS Ten O'clock Different Show Lie you into being ignorant! 　Pandemic scam calls and text messages surge by 50% Reporter Lin Longshi / Photographer Zhuo Yizi reports Time icon 2020/09/14 23:52 The new crown pneumonia epidemic has not subsided, and the world is shrouded in anxiety and panic, allowing fraudulent groups to take advantage of the situation to make money. According to statistics from the global telephone recognition industry, Taiwan has intercepted 140 million fraudulent calls and text messages from January to August alone. There are packages that have not been confiscated, free masks can be collected, 1800 for one day, 5400 for three days, you can make money without going to work at home, investing in vaccine research and development, counterfeiting to raise donations, fraud groups use the epidemic to cheat them. Reporter Zhuo Yizi: "The mobile app helps you block fraudulent calls. Now even the scam SMS can check for you. The government and software companies have cooperated long before the epidemic to prevent people from being deceived. As of January to August this year According to the statistics of monthly operators, they have intercepted 140 million fraudulent calls and fraudulent text messages, a 50% increase compared to the same period last year." Li Yanru, Technical Director of Call Recognition Mobile Software: "We also did not predict why the text message would become a fraud prevention breach, because most people are slowly believing in the text message, and everyone uses the text message to send the bank’s OTP (dynamic Password), all phone verifications are also through two-stage verification, and they are also SMS via phone. That is because everyone thinks that this is you through the SMS, so everyone believes in the SMS channel, but the most vulnerable channel is also the SMS Pipeline." Beware of fraud. The SMS is the most terrible. If you go to an unknown URL, you will reveal all your assets, steal credit cards, and plant Trojan horse viruses. Take a look at the scam newsletters counted by the industry. From January to March 2020, the number soared from more than 100 to 3,843. Li Yanru, technical director of caller identification mobile software: "(SMS) is easier to penetrate into the user's mobile phone, and then it is easier for the user to believe, so the fraud group takes advantage of this, and he will send this crazy, for example The first is to pretend to be a government decree, and the second is to say that if there is, there may be materials, free masks and free alcohol, or your job, because some people will be unemployed because of bad economic conditions. , When they are unemployed, some people will pretend to be an employer, send you a notice of admission, and then trick you into getting the bait.” Epidemic fraud knows no borders. According to software industry analysts, as the epidemic has moved from livelihood supplies, medicines, masks and vaccines, to the current stage of economic revitalization, many fraudulent groups have "made themselves". The United States lied to the public by falsely claiming that Trump was going to issue bailout checks; Japanese scam groups cheated to clean up the virus and pollute waterways; India falsely claimed that the prime minister raised funds; some people in South Africa faked the central bank and claimed that the virus was infected with paper money and recovered banknotes and coins . Li Yanru, technical director of caller identification mobile software: "It's like Brazil, because its epidemic is also very serious, so it created it. Some people will, and some may be unemployed. When the government wants to allocate relief funds, it only needs to talk to the people. When the people are upset about the channel of contact, it is easy to get hooked." Wang, Po-Chi associate professor of the Department of Criminal Justice of Ming Chuan University: "There are probably two aspects to these so-called scammers. One is to make the so-called people have some greed, so maybe he will do something, maybe Some gave them a little favor and asked them to do something that might allow them to lure them into the bait, and that is to say that the so-called fear-generating mentality of him was mainly the result of the combination of these two parts." The new crown pneumonia epidemic has not yet passed. Scam groups use the panic of the people to deceive you into ignorance and ignorance, so as to avoid being deceived. Scholars recommend doing so to protect yourself. Wang, Po-Chi associate professor of the Department of Criminal Justice of Ming Chuan University: "If you feel weird, don’t say it, comfort yourself or be afraid to say that because of this, I will have some part of me whether I have already invested. I have already been invested by this. , I hope to return to the original next time. It is not like this, but there should be such a situation. If you feel weird, please call 165 or 110 to verify." Don’t answer unknown calls. Don’t click on the website if you don’t understand the SMS. Record all transaction information. When a scam knocks on the door, shut the door for him.
