Master Bai, a villager who lives in Yuanyang County, Honghe Prefecture, Yunnan, encountered a car accident. At that time, he was driving an electric tricycle and was about to overtake a white car when he collided with the other person. The driver of the white car, Liu, asked for 7,000. Yuan compensation was later increased to 20,000 yuan. Master Bai chose to call the police because he could not afford such a high compensation.

After the traffic police arrived at the scene, they found that the accident was indeed Master Bai's full responsibility. However, the careful traffic police found that there were many "old injuries" on the body of the white car. An eyewitness at the scene even claimed that the white car was involved in a car accident elsewhere that afternoon.

The driver, Mr. Liu, had two traffic accidents on the same day. His car was also "scarred" and seemed to be particularly unlucky. After in-depth investigation, the police found that things were not that simple.

A while ago, on a rural road in Yuanyang County, Honghe Prefecture, Yunnan, villager Master Bai drove a three-wheeled motorcycle on the road. After a while, a white BMW The car passed Master Bai and drove slowly in front of him.

Master Bai said that after following the car for a distance, he felt that the speed of the BMW was still very slow, so he decided to overtake it, but unexpectedly an accident happened.

Three-wheeled motorcycle driver Master Bai: As soon as I rushed out from behind , the front of the car hit me.

Just as Master Bai was overtaking and preparing to merge, the BMW suddenly accelerated and the left front side of the car collided with the right rear side of the three-wheeled motorcycle.

Three-wheeled motorcycle driver Master Bai: The driver of the BMW immediately said, "Look, what kind of car is this?" I told him I didn’t know what kind of car it was, but later he asked for 7,000 yuan.

BMW driver Liu inspected the car again and increased the maintenance fee from 7,000 yuan to 20,000 yuan.

Bai Lin, a police officer from Erza Police Station of Yuanyang County Public Security Bureau, Honghe Prefecture: The person on the BMW said that the headlights were also damaged and the price would be increased to 20,000 yuan. The tricycle owner said he did not have that much money and chose to report the crime.

After receiving the alarm from Master Bai, police from the Erza Police Station of the Yuanyang County Public Security Bureau quickly rushed to the scene.

Bai Lin, a police officer from Eza Police Station of Yuanyang County Public Security Bureau, Honghe Prefecture: After we looked at it, we took photos and fixed them at the scene in accordance with the procedures for handling traffic accidents.

After on-site investigation, the police felt something strange. It is understood that the road was not congested when the accident occurred, but the BMW was driving very slowly.

At this moment, a passing onlooker provided an important piece of information to the police. At about 3 p.m. that day, this BMW was involved in a traffic accident not far away.

Witness Master Qian: My cousin called me and said that there was a car accident here and asked me to come back and take a look. I'll help him deal with it. He's old and he doesn't understand.

At that time, Master Qian's cousin drove a three-wheeled motorcycle and hit a BMW car. After Master Qian arrived at the scene, his cousin had scraped together 16,800 yuan to compensate the car owner. Master Qian never expected that he would encounter this car again here, and another accident would occur.

Witness Master Qian: I even stopped the car deliberately to see the damage to their two cars, and then I saw the BMW.

Master Qian found that the damaged position of the car in the two accidents was the same.

Witness Master Qian: At that time, my cousin said that the BMW was about to stop, and when he was about to pass it, he felt that it was touching. The driver of the BMW said that his cousin touched his car. The same part, the same day, just a few hours apart, it couldn't be such a coincidence.

Liu also admitted that an accident had occurred before, which further deepened the police's doubts. In the same accident, Liu said that he drove slowly because he was on the phone. Therefore, the police asked him to provide evidence of making the call.

Bai Lin, a police officer from Erza Police Station of Yuanyang County Public Security Bureau, Honghe Prefecture: We asked him if he could provide various records of the phone call we just made, but he couldn’t provide them either. So these further prove that he deliberately concealed the facts, and our suspicion of him deepens.

Moreover, police carefully inspected and found that many scratches on the car's body did not look like fresh scratches, but more like " old wounds", but Liu denied it.

The same car had two traffic accidents on the same day, and the collision places were basically the same. Is this really just a coincidence? BMW driver Liu seems to be deliberately hiding something? There are various signs that these two accidents are not simple, and there may be other hidden reasons. In order to find out the truth, the police decided to summon the person involved to the police station for further investigation.

Liu is from Guizhou, and the vehicle he drives has a Guizhou license plate. The police asked him about the purpose of coming to Yuanyang, but Liu was evasive.

Bai Lin, a police officer from Erza Police Station, Yuanyang County Public Security Bureau, Honghe Prefecture: The owner of the BMW said at first that he was here for fun, and then later said that he was here to discuss business with friends. When we asked him which friend he was looking for, he couldn't tell.

According to the movement track of the car, the police discovered through snapshot photos that as early as 5 days ago, there were obvious scratch marks on the left front side of the car.

Bai Lin, a police officer from Eza Police Station of Yuanyang County Public Security Bureau, Honghe Prefecture: This car had scratches on the same location a few days ago. So we are even more convinced that this car has been involved in an accident before, but the owner deliberately concealed the fact.

More and more doubts indicate that this traffic accident was probably not an accident, but a carefully designed scam. As a result, the Yuanyang County Public Security Bureau quickly launched an investigation into Liu and found that in November 2023 alone, this white car was involved in 10 traffic accidents. In addition, in March and June 2023, more than 20 similar accidents occurred. According to statistics, from October 2022 to November 2023, this car was involved in a total of 163 traffic accidents, and the accident situations were highly similar.

However, the suspect Liu refused to cooperate with the police investigation.

Bai Lin, a police officer from Eza Police Station of Yuanyang County Public Security Bureau, Honghe Prefecture: He has always denied that it was a porcelain fraud, nor did he admit that accidents had occurred in other places.

Suspect Liu: I drove here in 2022, and came in November. How many traffic accidents occurred in Yunnan? 4. I can’t remember the specifics now.

After repeated interrogations and investigations, Liu confessed to four people who had interactions with him: Xiang, Qiu, Zhu, and Zhu. Soon, four people including Xiang and Qiu were summoned for investigation and one after another confessed their criminal facts.

According to Xiang's account, as early as around October 2022, Liu invited him, Zhu, Qiu and others to Yunnan in the name of tourism. An unexpected traffic accident caused They discovered so-called "business opportunities."

Criminal suspect Xiang: The car was accidentally hit by someone, and he lost money. When I repair my car myself, in addition to making a little profit from the repair fee, I feel that this is also a little bit of income, which makes me crooked.

Therefore, starting from September 2022, Liu, Xiang and others drove BMW, Mercedes-Benz and other luxury cars to Yunnan, Sichuan, Guizhou and other places, deliberately choosing to travel in remote areas Look for "hitting" targets on rural roads, and then implement bumping. Liu and Xiang were responsible for driving, while Zhu, Zhu and Qiu participated in demanding high compensation from the victim.

Suspect Xiang: Let’s drive the car slower, people are behind. If he sees us driving slowly, he will overtake us. Once he overtakes us, he will swing over and drive back to the original lane. If we drive back to the original lane, the car will hit us.

Since the accidents all occurred when overtaking, it appears that the overtaking party is solely responsible. Therefore, Liu and others took the opportunity to demand high compensation from the victim. Sometimes they will also use factors such as the loss of license plates of some agricultural vehicles and illegal behavior by drivers to further increase the amount of compensation.

Bai Lin, a police officer from Eza Police Station of Yuanyang County Public Security Bureau, Honghe Prefecture: The suspect first asked the victim if he had a driver's license and if he had been drinking. If they find that the victim is undocumented, unlicensed, or under the influence of alcohol, they will raise the amount of the claim very high, forcing the other party not to dare call the police and settle the matter privately.

Liu and others used this method to commit the crime of "touching porcelain". In more than a year, they defrauded a large amount of ill-gotten gains.

Li Xudong, deputy director of the Yuanyang County Public Security Bureau in Honghe Prefecture: involves 71 counties including Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan. So far, 163 victims have been verified, and the amount involved is millions of yuan.

The luxury cars such as BMW and Mercedes-Benz used by Liu and others were actually second-hand cars, and some were damaged or overhauled.

Bai Lin, a police officer from Erza Police Station of Yuanyang County Public Security Bureau, Honghe Prefecture: The price they bought these second-hand cars was basically relatively cheap, not 500,000, 600, 400, 500,000, as they told the victim.

Why did Liu and others choose to commit crimes on rural roads? It turns out that in addition to the low video coverage, another reason is that many villagers do not know much about the crime of porcelain touching and related laws and regulations.

Li Junzhong, Captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Yuanyang County Public Security Bureau, Honghe Prefecture: On the other hand, the people he chose to drive this type of car were all middle-aged and older people. After he encountered this kind of thing, he didn't know how to deal with it, so he compromised.

Many victims have low incomes, and compensation of tens of thousands of yuan is already a huge sum of money for them.

At present, the public security organs have impounded 2 vehicles involved in the case. Liu and other five suspects have been criminally detained by the public security organs in accordance with the law on suspicion of fraud, and have been arrested by the procuratorate in accordance with the law.
