First question: "You don't know that virtual currency trading is illegal?"

Core idea: Do not directly admit to 'illegality', clearly distinguish between 'not protected' and 'illegal' legal concepts.

Avoid directly nodding in agreement when you hear 'illegal'. You can respond calmly like this:

"From my personal understanding and research on relevant regulations, the law has not explicitly defined the buying and selling of virtual currencies between individuals as illegal. I am fully aware that such trading activities are not protected by law and that I must bear the associated risks. However, I believe that 'not protected by law' and 'illegal behavior' are two different legal concepts. What I am doing is merely a transaction of personal virtual assets between individuals."

— This statement is your legal bottom line; be sure to hold it firmly and do not admit to any violations on your own.

Second question: 'You have received illicit funds; you must refund the full amount to unfreeze!'

Core idea: Indicate a cooperative attitude but strive for negotiation space, avoiding being intimidated by a 'fixed price'.

Don't be intimidated by the statement 'must refund the full amount' and immediately agree. A more prudent response is:

I understand the need for cooperation and am willing to take on corresponding responsibilities within a reasonable range. However, regarding the specific amount and proportion of compensation, I believe we can communicate and negotiate based on the actual situation. I am not fully informed, so the amount determined unilaterally by you may require a clearer explanation from me. I will definitely cooperate actively; can we arrange for a negotiation with the victim's side to seek a relatively fair and reasonable solution together? If we reach a settlement agreement, the issue should be resolved smoothly, right?

— It demonstrates an attitude of active cooperation while leaving room for negotiation, avoiding being passive.

Third question: 'If you do not solve it as required, all your cards will be permanently frozen, and you will be left with a criminal record!'

Core idea: Stay calm, clarify the distinction between 'investigation' and 'conviction', and demonstrate an understanding of the basic procedures.

Don't be frightened by the consequential descriptions like 'criminal record' or 'freezing all cards'. You can respond calmly:

I understand and respect the investigation procedures of the public security organs, and I have prepared all relevant transaction records and proof materials, and will fully cooperate with the investigation. As far as I know, currently freezing accounts is a temporary measure in the investigation process and does not mean that I have been finally determined to have committed a crime. Since there has been no conviction, then where does the talk of a 'criminal record' come from? Additionally, as long as my other bank cards are not directly receiving funds involved in the case from primary accounts, according to relevant regulations and practices, they should generally not affect the normal use of other legal accounts.

— This response indicates that you understand the basic legal procedures and regulations, and the other party will communicate more rigorously and formally.

I previously saw a paragraph of teasing, slightly modified, which quite reflects the mindset of some friends:

I usually do not envy quick wealth, just say that exchanging U for cash is stable. Suddenly seeing the warning of frozen cards, it's hard to distinguish between the muddy and the clear. Alas! Only when the subpoena arrives do I know the urgency, and only now do I realize the need for defense.

⚠️ Important reminder: How to maximize the probability of avoiding the risk of frozen cards?

1. For regular amounts (for example, within one or two million): prioritize cooperation with experienced OTC traders who operate in a regulated manner, do not focus on volume, and emphasize transaction compliance. They typically have stricter risk control measures.

2. For amounts that are huge: consider actively utilizing compliant channels in places with clearer policy environments like Hong Kong, where the financial system is more compatible with virtual currencies.
