Because Mrs. Lin did not let her family know about the fact that she wanted to send money to pick up the package, she was afraid of being scolded by her family when asked by the police, so she faltered and hesitated. She didn’t know the contents of the package, the remitter and other details. She was naive. I thought that as long as I followed the instructions on LINE to remit the money, I could receive the package as I wished, and I firmly believed in the "grandson" character of the fraud group.

The police checked the LINE conversation records of her mobile phone and found that the remittance mentioned by Mrs. Lin had to go to a specific Bitcoin machine for operation. It was confirmed that the "grandson" in Mrs. Lin's mouth was the virtual cover of the fraud group. After several persuasion, Mrs. Lin gave up the idea of ​​remittance. To save 6,000 yuan, the police also kindly helped Lin Fu's mobile phone LINE to disable the "allow to be added as friends" function, and blocked the "fake grandson" to prevent her from being brainwashed and scammed again.

The police checked the contents of Lin's mobile phone and confirmed that she had been scammed.
