In Linhe District, Bayannaoer, police intercepted a case of online ordering tickets being swindled. The police investigation found that the lawless elements made use of the weaknesses of the few people who were not familiar with online shopping operations, and made false ticket buying websites to defraud victims' money.


According to reports, at 18 o'clock on November 3rd, the victim, Ms. Jia found through Baidu search.

"After inquiring about its customer service telephone number" 400-6750010 ", we ordered 3 tickets from Singapore to Hongkong by telephone, and the other said the adult ticket was 915 yuan and the children's ticket was 438 yuan.

Because of the low price, Ms. Jia ordered 3 more tickets from Vietnam to Singapore. The other party quoted an adult ticket of 1678 yuan and a child ticket of 657 yuan, and asked her to remit the money to the designated bank at 10 a.m. on the second day.


In accordance with the request of the other side, Ms. Jia made an account to the industrial and Commercial Bank of China, which was named Liu Zhubao and the account remittance was 622202220101267863 yuan. The remittance was 6281 yuan. When the other party confirmed receipt, the system was being maintained on the grounds of the malfunction of the network, so that she could go to the ICBC ATM machine to reactivate it according to the prompt.

Ms. Jia felt that there was something fishy about it. She searched the customer service phone again through the Internet, and found that many people left the message in the name of air tickets.

At this point, Ms. Jia knew that she was being cheated.


For such cases, Inner Mongolia Bayannaoer police investigation found that there are three characteristics: first, the illegal elements often choose to site on the large tourism website (such as Ctrip), portals blog (Sina blog) or Baidu network, and so on. The website is similar to the well-known travel agencies or airline pages.

Information lures people into bait.


The two is that the telephone numbers provided by the illegal elements are mostly the China Mobile service customer service numbers which are commonly used by the major airlines at the beginning of the "400".

The police found that enterprises should provide business licenses and personal identity documents photocopies or scanned parts according to the regulations for the "400" business, but in fact, anyone who can apply for the Internet and reserve a minimum 400 yuan telephone fee can open a "400" number.


The three is that criminals use the mentality of victims to covet cheap and publish announcements on the Internet under the name of the air ticket agencies of major airlines, so as to introduce super low discount and discount tickets packages for bait.

At the same time, it also promised to deliver tickets free of charge within 24 hours after payment. Some consumers were cheated for instant convenience or discount.


Inner Mongolia police remind consumers: online booking should choose the regular website of the airline, or some well-known domestic large booking website, do not believe in the order of low discount tickets lie; do not casually search the booking agent on the Internet, and have special vigilance for the pfer request.
