Mark a code farmer deceived before the National Day

As a code farmer, he has always claimed that he is the smartest race on the planet. However, a recent incident has led me to discover some of my own shortcomings, especially in emotional intelligence, which is almost zero! So I thought about a national day. I plan to write it here to remind the coders in the garden. Never underestimate others' IQ or be arrogant!

This is the case. One day before the National Day, I was working hard to work overtime programming in front of the computer, and the Project Manager pointed out the work of all of us. At this moment, a phone rang, and the mobile phone prompts that it was an advertisement sales phone. "xx people marked it." As a high-IQ group, I was trying to get up and have a rest for a while, is it fraud! So we have the following conversation:

"Hello ?"

"Hello, sir, have you obtained a credit card at Guangdong Development Bank ?" A sweet girl asked.

I remembered that about two weeks ago, the company had a credit card and filled out a large number of orders to send bicycles and pressure cookers. I also filled out a ticket. Is this confirmed by phone? Fortunately, I was still thinking.

"Yes, yes !" I want to answer the question quickly.

"Hello, this is the case. To thank you for your card at our bank, we will give you a 4g TV receiver and a 3D glasses ". Miss continued.

"What is a 4G receiver ?" Alas, codenon is a codenon. At this time, he does not need to call the phone, but also cares about high technology.

"Well, you can use a 4G receiver to connect to your computer and enjoy free wireless Internet access. You can also watch more than 100 cable TVs. These are free of charge," said Miss. I was confused.

"Okay, are you billed?" I thought, don't lie to me.

"No, but you have to pay 198 postage. But because it is for you, we will give you a 200 yuan mobile phone recharge card. It means you have not paid for it ." How serious a liar, I did not respond, what express delivery is so expensive!

"Let me think about it." At this moment, I really hesitated, because she was a liar in my first reaction, although I don't know what high technology the 4G receiver is. But I want to go back and check whether there is such a thing. Isn't 4G a communication technology? Is it a network interface card?

"Do you think I am a liar?" The lady went on to say, "Well, we are cash on delivery. You can open the goods in front of the courier and check whether there is any problem, you can send another 198. If you have any questions, you can reject them ". At that time, I was relieved of my vigilance. I can check something on the spot!

"Okay, send it"

"So are you looking for a mobile phone recharge card for China Mobile, China Unicom, or China Telecom?" The scam was brilliant.

"Move it ." I am so naive!

"Okay, I will mail you the address of your credit card. Please check it out !"

"What are you using for express delivery ?" I am so stupid.

"Hello, we are using the Home Delivery Service ".

After the call was over, I was skeptical and I checked what the 4G receiver was, but I got nothing.

Then, three days later, we waited for the arrival of express delivery in busy programming. I was so naive and looked forward to it!

Next is a sleep afternoon, the elder brother of the home delivery calls, to pay 198!

When I fly downstairs, the answer is clear! Open a very small package and I saw a poorly printed box with a 4G receiver written on it. There was a long bar like a TV receiver, and there was a pair of blue-and-half-red glasses next to it, two things are not worth RMB 198!

By the way, there is a good recharge card! Really ah, it just says "China Mobile phone communication". The bottom right corner is the logo of mobile, Unicom, and telecom. Which of the following is the recharge card! And scammers are too unprofessional! I only sent a 100 email!

It was the recharge card of this shanzhai that made me confused and did not receive the goods. The courier did not matter.

Afterwards, I thought that if I had two recharge cards, I would have paid the money well. Even if it is a fake card with no money. It's just an accident!

To sum up this "cheated" experience, on the one hand, I am curious about new things and technologies, and on the other hand, I love to take advantage of low prices. If the express delivery arrives, I will not take a closer look, it may be "free Internet access" with a 4G receiver! Think about it in depth. The scammers are willing to mail this item to people through telephone, labor, and express delivery, which means there is a certain probability that people will be cheated. So I thought about the national day and decided to write it down to remind everyone not to be greedy or cheap for big losses!

There was no time to take photos, no picture, no truth! The first time I wrote such a long article, I hope it will help you!Please recommend this article to more people!

You are welcome to repost it so that more people will not be deceived! Indicate the source. Thank you! Http://home.cnblogs.com/u/thanksmoons/

 

Supplement: I don't know which part of the process. The scammers know my mobile phone number. This number is the company's work number. Few scammers have phone numbers, so I am relieved of my vigilance! I guess that, from card filling to bank and credit card center, personal information may be sold in multiple stages! In this way, the bank is not reliable, so will personal ID cards be sold in addition to phone numbers? Hope you can explain it!
