We learned from the Chongqing Fengdu County Public Security Bureau that the bureau recently uncovered a major online telecommunications fraud case involving more than 2,000 victims in multiple provinces and cities across the country, and the amount involved was more than 5 million yuan. 36 suspects were arrested.

At the end of 2017, Zhang, a resident of Sanhe Street, Fengdu County, Chongqing, went to the Fengdu County Public Security Bureau to report that he had seen an unnecessary credit card issued by a so-called "credit specialist" in a WeChat group in early April 2017. You can promote the loan by checking your credit, so you add the other party as a friend and consult the other party about loan-related matters. After paying the card application fee and activation fee, which totaled more than 2,000 yuan, Zhang received a credit card-like card with the words "Ouding Yisheng" printed on the surface. However, the card does not have any bank card functions and cannot lend money. Zhang realized that he might have been deceived and called the police.

After receiving the alarm, Fengdu County Public Security immediately launched investigation work. Through investigation, the police discovered that behind the case there may be a fraud criminal gang with many criminals and a huge number of cases involved. The gang is headed by Ma Moumou, and its main base is located in Qitaihe City, Heilongjiang.

After detailed investigation, the police gradually mastered the basic information of the gang’s five dens located in Qitaihe City, Heilongjiang Province and Yantai City, Shandong Province, and confirmed the organizational structure, hierarchical relationship, and Information such as the identity of the principal culprit, the suspect’s address, and the office address of the criminal gang.

Under the unified deployment of the task force, two groups of people carried out operations at the same time and successfully closed down the network. 36 criminal suspects were arrested in one fell swoop, a large number of criminal suspects were detained on the spot, and 5 online telecommunications fraud dens were destroyed. Recently, the task force successfully brought all criminal suspects safely back to Fengdu, Chongqing.
