game in game, cheat in cheat.
We often see some cases of fraud, and many netizens have a mentality: If I encounter this kind of scam, I will definitely be useless.
In fact, don’t say that, if someone designs a scam specifically for you, if you fail, you will be overturned, just like He Fei in "The Missing She", he carefully designed a trick to deceive Li Muzi, but he didn't expect to fall into the "trick" designed by Li Muzi's best friend Shen Man.
If we take a closer look at the "scam" designed by Shen Man, you will find that its tactics are almost the same as that of telecom fraud, which can be roughly divided into seven tricks in order.
1. Obtaining information
Shen Man and Li Muzi are best friends who talk about everything. Of course, Shen Man will know a lot of information about He Fei in advance, including He Fei and Li Muzi's acquaintance process, love process and marriage details. These private information Li Muzi may not tell anyone except Shen Man.
Shen Man also bribed the hotel staff to put sleeping pills in He Fei's wine, so that when He Fei was drowsy, they could take the opportunity to search for more information about He Fei and Li Muzi, and then quickly forged it.
In addition, Shen Man's team also implanted tracking software in He Fei's mobile phone, so that he could know where He Fei was at the first time. You must know that obtaining detailed information is the basis of the scam.
In daily life, telecom fraudsters will obtain victims' information through Internet searches or private purchases. Once they say some highly private information on the phone, the deceived will be immediately calmed down and attracted.
Second, block information
In "The Missing She", Du Jiang plays Zheng Cheng in a small role, but his role is extremely crucial, and it is also an important part of Shen Man's success in fooling He Fei, that is, blocking information.
He Fei went to the police station to report the case and was kicked out. Zheng Cheng's timely appearance gave him hope, and he gave He Fei his contact information. In He Fei's mind, he would go to Zheng Cheng as long as it involved the police. Objectively, Zheng Cheng formed a kind of information blockade for He Fei.
With Zheng Cheng's firewall blocking it, He Fei couldn't get in touch with the real police, so it was naturally difficult to see through Shen Man's puzzle.
In the fraud routine, the fraudsters often ask the victims not to hang up their mobile phones, and prevent the victims from contacting family members, friends and the police. Objectively, a kind of information blockade is formed, and the victims can only follow the ideas and instructions of the fraudsters.
3. Fictitious name
Shen Man manipulated a group of local snakes to steal He Fei's wallet. She rode a motorcycle to help him out, leaving a first impression of He Fei's supernatural powers.
When He Fei was drinking in the bar, he saw the news about the famous lawyer Chen Mai was playing on TV (God knows if it was a video). Because of a chance encounter during the day, He Fei noticed this very capable barrister, and with the help of the bar owner, he became very interested in Chen Mai.
Shen Man was not in a hurry to appear on the stage or to contact He Fei, but first made up a very good name for himself, showed his strength, and made He Fei have a preconceived sense of trust.
In the process of telecommunications fraud, victims often encounter a situation where the scammers often use the authority or the judiciary under the banner, because in the eyes of ordinary people these departments are not only authoritative but also very deterrent, and the scammers create a sense of psychological oppression for the victims from the very beginning.
4. Brainwashing
After He Fei saw "Chen Mai", Chen Mai first told him a story, that is, the "freak show" that had been circulated on the Internet for a long time.
Then, Chen Mai asked her team members Pagan, who looked like a gangster killer, to keep following them, and he was not afraid of being seen by He Fei.
In order to brainwash He Fei, Chen Mai even deliberately arranged thrilling car chases and gun battles. For He Fei, who grew up in a safe domestic environment, he had never seen such battles before, and he had no choice but to trust Chen Mai.
In telecom fraud activities, criminals will also brainwash victims by rendering a tense atmosphere, scaring the other party about what kind of punishment they will get if they don’t cooperate. For some victims with insufficient social experience, once their thinking falls into the logical trap set by the other party, it is difficult to escape in a short time. This is why some victims are still sure that they are not deceived when faced with police dissuasion.
Fifth, teamwork
No matter how strong Shen Man is alone, He Fei cannot completely believe in her layout, so she needs teamwork. In addition to the fake Li Muzi, Zheng Cheng, Pagan and others from the M troupe, she also bought the bar owner, bookstore proprietress, photography shop owner and hotel manager, etc., forming a "fool gang".
As a result, He Fei's surroundings were full of eyes aimed at him. No matter where he went, there would be people from Shen Man, making him hard to guard against. Even if he had doubts about Chen Mai, he would relax his vigilance because of the evidence of other people.
also often has this kind of routine in telecom fraud. Criminals will transfer calls in various ways and change people with different identities to brainwash victims. The deputy director, the captain, and even more authoritative departments, sometimes even the same person uses a voice changer to create the illusion of multiple people to carry out fraud, just to prevent the victim from having a chance to take a breather and calm down.
also has similar cases in some so-called investment group scams. In the most extreme case, a group of 100 people has 99 accounts who are scammers, targeting that one victim.
Sixth, playing hard to get
Shen Man helped He Fei find the photographer Hasu, and obtained enough evidence to prove that the fake Li Muzi was not He Fei's wife. They took Hasu to the police station. On the way, Shen Man deliberately quarreled with He Fei. Muzi blocked him, and was finally sent to a mental hospital after being irritated.
This trick is called "playing hard to get". Shen Man first let He Fei enjoy a little bit of sweetness, let him just burst out with hope, and then extinguished it, gradually crushing his psychology in the back and forth tearing.
In actual fraud, we often see some cases where criminals give victims a little sweetness. The typical phenomenon is to let the victim make some money first, let the victim relax their vigilance, and step into the trap step by step. This tactic is very old, and it is more common in casinos.
Seventh, the last blow
I have to say that He Fei's psychological quality is really excellent, because he knows that he killed Li Muzi, and once the truth is revealed, what awaits him is the result of eternal doom, so he kept Shen Man's team busy for so long without collapsing.
Fortunately, Shen Man is smart enough. She devised multiple plans to carry out the final blow. First, she tied He Fei into a "mental hospital" to make him feel isolated and helpless.
Even in this situation, facing the only life-saving straw, Chen Mai, He Fei still persisted, which is a ruthless person, so Shen Man designed a countdown timer, which created an intuitive sense of oppression psychologically, and finally made He Fei give in, telling the truth.
In many fraud cases, criminals often design such a sense of oppression for the victim to achieve the purpose of the final blow, such as the last ten minutes, the last and the last chance, etc., completely crushing the victim's psychology and achieving the purpose of the crime.
To sum up, although Shen Man is a director, she should understand psychology very well, and probably has studied criminal psychology, so she was able to design a just scam against He Fei, and with the cooperation of the team, he was completely solved and exposed his true colors. At the same time, Shen Man and his team members also paid the price of breaking the law. There is no way, even if this is a just scam, some methods do have legal risks.
The seven tricks summarized in this article do not only appear in some scams such as telecommunications fraud, in fact, some tricks often appear in some marketing activities. After all, in the matter of deceiving people, there are many similarities between scams and marketing theories. This requires everyone to keep their eyes open, keep calm, and don't be easily deceived or easily deceived.
