A telecom gang had swindled 2 million Yuan from over 120 victims within 3 months. One of victims from Yichang was cheated of 600,000 Yuan. On June 9 the Yiling Police arrested all the members of the gang in the downtown. Now 8 suspects are detained. The case is under investigation now.

On April 12 Zhang Susu (alias) called the police and reported that she was tricked into a fraud by Chen whom she met in a qq group. At the first day Zhang invested 10,000 Yuan and earned 1.5% interests, at the second day 2% interests and the fourth day 3% interests. Finally Zhang got total 10,971 Yuan including capital and profit. Chen preached that the more capital Zhang invested, the more profits she will earn. So Zhang registered two new accounts. Each account was deposited 200,000 Yuan. But this time she didn’t get any benefits. The customer service explained that the two accounts were frozen. The solution is to put another 200,000 Yuan into the accounts. Zhang did as the customer service said. But the service website is blocked and the telephone is not available. The police immediately cooperated with related parties to investigate the case and found out the suspects’ living place. On May 27, the policemen arrested the 8 group members in an advanced residential area in the downtown. After careful investigation, the suspects are identified. All of them are from Hu’nan. The organizer is Lu Yong(alias). His sister is responsible for their meals. The other two women and four men are their followers. Lu Yong started telecom fraud in March. He and his gang swindled 2 million Yuan within 3 months. There are more than 120 victims. (Reporter: Gong Changjun; correspondent: Cao Hui)
