Fake investment company lures the public to download an app to purchase stocks | Criminal Investigation Bureau's Cybercrime Team 3 conducts multiple operations and arrests 19 suspects.
After receiving intelligence, the Cybercrime Division's Third Team launched an investigation into a fraud group led by someone with the surname Jian. This group posed as an investment company, luring victims to download fake investment apps and conduct financial transactions, ultimately retrieving cash through forged documents. From December 2023 to February 2024, the task force conducted a sweep operation, arresting 19 suspects, and initially identified over 10 victims, with a fraud amount of approximately NT$10 million. The police urge the public to remain vigilant and introduced a "Fraud Dashboard" to provide information and preventive measures against fraud.
