(Central News Agency reporter Wu Zhehao, Changhua, 4th) To promote anti-fraud awareness, the Changhua County Police invited celebrity Wang Zhongping to play a citizen going to a bank to withdraw cash, preparing to remit money to a friend. Police officers arrived at the scene to remind him it might be a scam. The video's realistic content made viewers think Wang Zhongping himself had been scammed, achieving the desired promotional effect.
The Changhua City Police Precinct, Changhua County Police Bureau, issued a press release stating that to deepen community anti-fraud awareness, the precinct planned a realistic anti-fraud drill. They invited celebrity Wang Zhongping to play a panicked citizen who had fallen into a fake investment trap. In the video, believing his friend's pitch of 'guaranteed profits and double returns,' he goes to a bank counter to withdraw cash, nearly handing over his hard-earned savings.
The Changhua Precinct stated that the video will be posted on the Changhua Precinct's Facebook fan page for public viewing to promote anti-fraud awareness. Precinct Chief Liu Qianxiang said that according to National Police Agency statistics, property losses from fraud across Taiwan in April of this year alone reached over NT$4.9 billion. He noted that fraud rings often impersonate prosecutors, falsely claiming citizens' accounts are involved in cases and need monitoring, or use AI deepfake technology to create fake voices and images, combined with fake one-page online auction ads and fake 'ship-and-sell' links, to rake in illegal profits.
Liu Qianxiang urged the public not to panic upon receiving suspicious calls claiming high-return investments, accounts involved in criminal cases, or online auction payment errors. He advised people to hang up immediately, refuse to follow instructions to withdraw money, make counter remittances, or operate ATMs. Instead, they should immediately call the 165 anti-fraud consultation hotline or use the 'Anti-Fraud Dashboard' website established by the National Police Agency to stay informed about the latest fraud trends.
