Timeline of Da Tao's fraud case👀
Since June 2022, Da Tao has fallen into a serial scam carefully designed by Zhang Bai and Lu Xiaoqin. In the early stage, Da Tao invested 10 million yuan in the "X Easy" project as bait, and only received dividends for two months. In November of the same year, the two took advantage of the demand for masks during the epidemic, lied about factory resources, and tricked her into purchasing 8 million yuan of goods.
Since then, the fraud methods have been continuously upgraded:
Fund freezing trap: 30 million yuan was defrauded on the grounds that the oil company's account was frozen and the relationship needed to be smoothed; luxury car trap: 4.6 million Lamborghini was given on Valentine's Day to build trust, and 7 million yuan was transferred twice in the name of purchasing Ferrari;
Tax panic: fictitious car purchase involved a major tax case, and another 30 million yuan was squeezed; judicial intimidation: forged police identity and lied that the card freezing case involved money laundering, threatening to pay 36 million yuan in "settlement fees"; serial frame-up: fabricated mask quality problems, employee sexual assault cases, etc., and each time asked for tens of millions of funds in the name of "settling the case";
The ultimate harvest: In 2024, Zhang Bai pretended to be arrested and needed 600,000 yuan to rescue him, and then asked for 1.2 million yuan on the grounds of "deleting the anti-fraud list", and the cumulative fraud amount exceeded 200 million yuan.
It was not until July 2024 that Da Tao, who had been defrauded of all his savings, came to his senses and reported the case. The case reveals the complete chain of fraudsters through early profit temptation, mid-term identity disguise, and late psychological manipulation
