Among the cases, a local woman in her sixties was approached by scammers on an online forum. After moving the conversation to WhatsApp, the scammers lured the victim into investing in cryptocurrency by promising high returns. They instructed her to download a cryptocurrency wallet app and provided a fake investment website link, requesting her to authorize the wallet to connect to the fraudulent site for transactions. Initially, the victim made a profit of 920,000 yuan and successfully withdrew the funds. However, over the next six months, she made more than 20 transfers totaling approximately 19 million yuan to the fake website. The account balance displayed on the site showed over 42 million yuan. Subsequently, the fake website account suddenly showed as frozen, and customer service demanded an additional deposit of over 7 million yuan to unfreeze it. The victim transferred another 1.2 million yuan but became suspicious when she could no longer afford the payments and reported the case to the police. Ultimately, it was confirmed that she had lost over 21 million yuan.
