Public security organs have seen major success in combating telecom and online fraud
Public security organs nationwide resolved nearly 1.95 million cases of telecom and online fraud over the past five years, and the number of such cases filed nationwide has decreased year-on-year for eight consecutive months, effectively curbing the rise in telecom and online fraud crimes, Li Guozhong, a spokesman of the Ministry of Public Security, said on Monday. Facing the evolving tactics of telecom fraud, the hiding of fraud dens abroad and other challenges, public security organs nationwide have coordinated efforts in combating, preventing, managing and controlling telecom fraud and relevant crimes, as well as publicizing anti-fraud measures, he said. The ministry has continuously launched special operations, targeting overseas fraud groups and domestic networks involved in illegal activities regarding telecom fraud, such as fraud promotion, money laundering, technical development and organizing illegal immigration. The public security organs, in cooperation with relevant departments, intercepted 6.99 billion scam calls and 6.84 billion scam messages, dealt with 18 million involved domain names and websites, and urgently blocked 1.1 trillion yuan in fraudulent funds.
