Exposing the tricks of fraudsters in making chip-embedded citizen identification cards
The main purpose of the subjects is to find "prey" to provide real CCCD information so that they can use it to open online bank accounts for fraud.
On the afternoon of December 16, a leader of the Department of Cyber Security and High-Tech Crime Prevention (Tuyen Quang Provincial Police) said that recently, on social networks, many groups have appeared advertising the service of "receiving fake ID cards" or "making fake ID cards with 2023 standard chip"... attracting a large number of people to participate and interact with the posts.
The leader of the Department of Cyber Security and High-Tech Crime Prevention affirmed that this is a serious violation of the law, increasing the risk of crime, especially fraud, money laundering, gambling, gambling organization... directly affecting the security and order situation in the locality.
The subjects posted articles on social networks advertising services such as: "Quickly making fake ID cards"; "Making fake ID cards with 2023 standard chip, delivered to your home"...
Next, they ask for a “deposit”, then “break the deposit” and block all communication. There are cases where the CCCD is returned but is not as advertised, has a simple shape and design, and can be easily distinguished from real and fake with the naked eye.
However, the main purpose of the subjects is to find "prey" to provide real CCCD information to apply techniques such as: Portrait collage, using printing technology, attaching metal pieces... to fake CCCD to register to open an online bank account to commit fraud.
From there, the leader of the Department of Cyber Security and High-Tech Crime Prevention added: To prevent, stop, and minimize the risk of revealing and losing personal information on the CCCD, not allowing subjects to take advantage of it to commit illegal acts.
The Department of Cyber Security and High-Tech Crime Prevention recommends that people need to keep and preserve personal documents well, not disclose important information on the ID card, bank account number or password; do not share the ID card image on social networks, do not lend, take photos or rent the ID card to strangers in any form.
When using smart devices that store images and personal information, be very careful when installing applications online, only download from official sources on the App Store (for IOS operating system on Iphone) and CH Play (for Android operating system). This is to prevent fake application software from attacking, taking control and exploiting personal data.
