On April 28, 2025, the Ling Mountain police cracked a fraud case, arrested one criminal suspect, and recovered 20,000 yuan of defrauded money.

In September 2024, Mr. Xie saw someone operating virtual currency on the 'Douyin' platform and, out of curiosity, added the other party as a WeChat friend. In February 2025, the virtual currency seller contacted Mr. Xie, claiming to have virtual currency for sale at a very favorable price. Mr. Xie thought of a friend who needed virtual currency, so he contacted the seller on behalf of his friend and proceeded with the transaction.

On March 1, 2025, the virtual currency seller contacted Mr. Xie again, claiming to have virtual currency for sale and asking Mr. Xie to make a payment via Alipay. Having previously conducted transactions, Mr. Xie trusted the seller and transferred 20,000 yuan. However, the seller kept giving various excuses for not delivering the goods. After considering the situation, Mr. Xie felt he might have been scammed and reported to the police on March 17, 2025.

After receiving the report, the Xinxu Police Station of the County Public Security Bureau immediately organized forces to conduct an investigation. Based on preliminary investigation and evidence collection, the case was filed as a fraud case for investigation. Through in-depth investigation, the police found that Wei Mouzhao (from the Tushui Community of Zhaixu Town, Puban County) had significant criminal suspicion.

On April 26, with the assistance of the Guangdong police, and after careful deployment, the police arrested the criminal suspect Wei Mouzhao in Foshan City, Guangdong Province, and recovered the defrauded amount of 20,000 yuan. During interrogation, Wei Mouzhao confessed to the facts of his fraud.

Currently, Wei Mouzhao has been criminally detained in accordance with the law, and the case is under further investigation. #内容挖矿 $DOGE Follow me! Get more exciting content~
