Common scams:
1, health care product scam
The fraud of "guaranteeing products" is often aimed at the elderly's desire for health. In the early stage, they learned about the needs and physical health of the elderly in various ways. By giving rice, noodles, eggs and other small gifts, chatting with the elderly to relieve boredom and winning the trust of the elderly, they began to recommend products. Folk remedies have miraculous effects and other excuses to exaggerate the efficacy of "health care products" and encourage the elderly to buy health care products to cheat.
A large number of cases show that under the influence of physiological, psychological and social factors, the health care psychology of the elderly is the easiest target for scammers. Three key points to fall into the trap: first, being tempted by "free experience" and "free travel"; The second is to be moved by the "emotional card" of fraudsters; The third is to be "brainwashed" by fake experts and believe in the exaggerated efficacy of health care products.
2. Pension service scam
For this kind of fraud, first of all, scammers will instill the concept of investment for the elderly in squares, communities and other gathering places for the elderly; Then close the relationship with the elderly through lectures and small gifts; Finally, they will be told that there is an "old-age service" project. If you invest a certain amount, you can not only enjoy interest, but also enjoy medical care, nursing and other old-age services.
For the elderly, this approach seems to solve the problem of investment and wealth management and the demand for old-age services. But in fact, the so-called "aged care service" is actually illusory. Liars make perfect use of the psychology that the elderly like to "take advantage of small things". After gaining the trust of the old man, he absconded with money and empty gloves.
3. Pension bank scam
When such swindlers cheat, they will carefully package the rented office space, and generally put a similar name such as "* * Pension Bank Co., Ltd." on the company signboard to attract deposits from the elderly under the banner of "Pension Bank".
In fact, according to Article 11 of China's Commercial Bank Law, the establishment of a commercial bank should be examined and approved by the the State Council Banking Regulatory Authority. Without the approval of the the State Council Banking Regulatory Authority, no unit or individual may engage in commercial banking business such as absorbing public deposits, and no unit may use the word "bank" in its name.
