BlockBeats News, August 30th. According to reports from Huanqiu.com, the Dongxihu Sub-bureau of the Wuhan Public Security Bureau in Hubei Province has dismantled a group posing as a tech company to commit telecom fraud. The individuals involved in the case fabricated a "high-quality blind date female" scenario to befriend others, luring netizens to a fake platform for cryptocurrency investment fraud. The police on site arrested 30 criminal suspects, seized over 40 work computers used for fraud, over 50 work phones, more than 100 scripts, packaging materials for personas, and photos.

The suspects would send a fake investment website to victims after gaining their trust, enticing them to purchase cryptocurrency and invest in the fake platform. The scammers had autonomous control over the profits, but the 'withdrawal' process was always unsuccessful. Currently, 27 individuals involved have been criminally detained, and 3 individuals have been administratively detained. The police are proceeding with the case in accordance with the law.
