The victims are all in their early 30s and generally have higher education, including many who graduated from domestic and foreign colleges and universities. They hope to get some comfort and solace in this way, and they are relatively simple. They did not expect that these people would defraud them of their money in this way.

Zhang is a person on Weibo Big V, with more than 100,000 fans. These are the precise customers that Jiang needs very much. By fabricating successful cases in the group, they can make them believe that Jiang is a very capable master. The purpose is to monetize these customers.
In mid-March this year, Huangpu police organized police forces to go to other provinces to carry out centralized network collection operations. With the assistance of local police, they arrested five people including Zhang Moulin, a member of the fraud gang, and seized important evidence such as mobile phones and account books involved. The amount involved was as high as 1.2 million yuan. .
At present, the criminal suspect Zhang Moulin and other five people have been subject to criminal coercive measures by the police in accordance with the law on suspicion of fraud, and relevant cases are under further investigation.
The police found that many of the victims in this case were "highly educated people." There are even postdocs from prestigious overseas universities. Two postdocs are both female. They approached a master to seek marriage for themselves, but both of them were deceived. But the so-called "master" Jiang actually only had a primary school education. He dropped out of junior high school because of poor study, and was gradually packaged as a so-called "master".
Why can primary school students deceive themselves into becoming postdocs? The police said that in fraud cases, the academic qualifications of the victim are not actually important. Highly educated people are usually well protected in ivory towers and are often relatively simple, making them easy to be deceived.In addition, people with high education and high income have greater life pressure and are more likely to encounter various unsatisfactory situations. If they cannot solve it themselves, some people will think of finding a so-called "master" to help them.
A victim who had double degrees from two prestigious overseas universities came to his senses and sent a message to the police handling the case: "Most of the people we meet in life are gentlemen, and we often think that everyone we meet is a good person, but this This mentality gives scammers an opportunity.”
