Who exactly is the accomplice?
Why is it always you?
In the fight against fraud, Western medicine still works faster:
Starting tomorrow, the three major operators have established a mature cross-border harassment call interception system. The interception rate for virtual number segments is explicitly set to no less than 99%, and technical measures are being upgraded.
The whole world knows who provides the telecommunications systems used by fraud gangs in northern Myanmar. However, the Chinese people, who have long been plagued by telecom fraud, have not seen any action from these state-owned enterprises, and their own mobile phones are often shut down due to involvement in fraud.
On October 12, a poor man from Henan who had just returned from a trip to Nepal contacted the car he had arranged, only to find that his phone couldn’t be used. He stood in the deep snow at an altitude of over 4,000 meters, unable to call a car or make a payment, and nearly froze to death in the wind and snow.
He learned from customer service that China Mobile had ‘protectively shut down’ his phone to prevent him from being a victim of telecom fraud.
The Chinese people have suffered from telecom fraud for a long time, and they have also suffered from anti-fraud measures for a long time! This problem has almost become a chronic disease.
Why this sudden action?
It turns out that on December 8, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) issued an ultimatum to the three major operators, requiring them to resolve compliance issues in the U.S. anti-robocall database RMD within two weeks, by December 22. Otherwise, they would cut off the signal and directly interrupt the interconnection between the three major operators and the U.S. telecom network.
Now there is only one day left until the 22nd, and the measures of the three companies have been announced:
- China Telecom: Upgrading the Tianyi Anti-Harassment System, increasing AI recognition capabilities by 40%, and focusing on intercepting cross-border harassment calls.
- China Mobile: Shutting down more than 21,000 illegal relay lines and cutting off illegal communication channels.
- China Unicom: Optimizing the virtual number segment recognition model to achieve precise interception.
So, interception was possible all along…
Then why didn’t they do it before?
Is the role of state-owned enterprises to collude with fraudsters?
I dare not think, nor can I imagine.
My current question is, if they cut off the fraudulent calls to the United States, will they still allow them to pass through domestically?
Based on the previous ambiguity, and the speed at which the problem can be solved within two weeks after the U.S. issued the request, this concern is not unfounded.
Just like the fraud boss Chen Zhi from Fujian, who was caught by the U.S. in October, as early as 6 years ago, his fellow Fujian villagers were publicly saying online that he was the fraud leader:
And in 2022, he was again awarded the ‘Model of Corporate Social Responsibility Award’ in China:
Even officials went to socialize and exchange ideas:
The fraud continues, here are Chen Zhi and his beautiful wife:
6 private jets:
A fish tank with sharks:
Buying a 24K gold piano for his daughter:
Luxury cars are of course a must:
Until he was wanted by the U.S. and ‘ocean-caught’ with 127,000 bitcoins seized, worth $15 billion, equivalent to over 100 billion yuan!
Worse, the U.S. also allowed victims from all over the world to claim their losses.
Why do these things always need foreigners to come forward to solve?
Can the three major operators answer?
Why is everyone their own historian? How will we tell our children about their family history?
