Be careful of these "tricks" scams, Xinhua All Media+| College Entrance Exam Candidates | College Entrance Exam Candidates | tricks
Xinhua News Agency, Tianjin, June 15th (Xinhua) - They falsely claimed to hold "internal quotas" and were able to help candidates achieve "low scores and high admission"; Claiming to be able to "check scores in advance"... After the college entrance examination fell behind the scenes, some informal institutions and criminals took advantage of the opportunity to "circle money" and even commit fraud, frequently "riding on the heat" and setting "traps". The language and methods were innovated, not only disrupting social order, but also easily causing economic losses to candidates and parents.
The reporter found through analysis that there are several common "tricks":
——Falsely claiming "unplanned enrollment". According to Lou Jinjun, a police officer from the Tianjin Anti Telecom Network Fraud Crime Center, some criminals use methods such as creating fake documents and claiming to hold "internal indicators" and "flexible indicators" under the pretext of independent enrollment and targeted enrollment in universities. They can recommend candidates to key universities and allow those who do not meet the undergraduate admission line to undergraduate institutions, thereby defrauding money.

Several experts have stated that China has established a complete set of scientific, standardized, supervised, fair and just examination and enrollment system mechanisms. Candidates and parents should keep their eyes open and distinguish enrollment information more. "The college entrance examination enrollment and admission are conducted on the official website, strictly following the published enrollment plan. There are no" internal indicators "or other statements, and parents will not be charged high fees, such as deposit, admission fees, indicator fees, etc." said Lou Jinjun.
——High priced guidance for voluntary application. The reporter searched for "college entrance examination volunteer application" on a certain e-commerce platform and found that many institutions have displayed slogans such as "not wasting points in good universities" and "one-on-one tutoring", claiming to provide volunteer application consultation services for candidates, asking for thousands of yuan. An organization has launched packages such as "worry free admission cards for graduate studies," "worry free admission cards for universities," and "college entrance examination school selection cards," priced between 1280 yuan and 5980 yuan. The customer service representative stated that "one-on-one guidance" is provided by a team of experts, and the team consists of "985" and "211" master's and doctoral teachers who are specifically responsible for school selection and can communicate at any time.

Some netizens have expressed that it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity and professionalism of teachers who wish to apply for tutoring institutions, and the money spent is not worth it. A junior student from a university in Hubei province said that some of his classmates spent a lot on filling out their preferences, but their gains were limited. "The tutoring teacher only said that they should consider majors based on their interests, recommend a few schools that they are sure to attend, and say something that everyone knows well.".
——Forgery of admission notice. A netizen, Ms. Cao, said that after the college entrance examination last year, someone added her brother's WeChat in the name of an enrollment teacher at a full-time ordinary undergraduate college in Hubei. She had to go to his home address and ID number number, forge a "notice" and send it to her home. "I consulted the enrollment office of the school, but the teachers did not add the examinee's WeChat, and all the enrollment information was subject to the official website." Experts cautioned that some people deliberately confused the difference between online education, adult education, self-taught examination tutoring and Sino foreign cooperative school running projects and full-time ordinary higher education, and deceived the examinees who wanted to attend full-time ordinary undergraduate colleges. They should be vigilant.
Lou Jinjun said that in addition to the above situations, some illegal elements will also resort to fraudulent means such as falsely claiming to provide "education subsidies" and being able to modify college entrance examination scores. On the one hand, candidates and parents should search for information and fill out their preferences on official websites and apps to prevent information leakage to the greatest extent possible; On the other hand, it is also necessary to raise awareness of prevention. Before transferring funds, check the receiving account through various channels. When receiving information from unknown sources, verify through official channels. Do not believe in scams such as paying sponsorship fees to attend schools that do not meet the score line.
Chen Xuhui, director of the Internet Information and User Behavior Research Center of the Business School of Tianjin University of Finance and Economics, and others suggested that candidates and parents should establish the habit of assessing risks and retaining evidence, and keep evidence information such as call records, electronic contracts, and promotional materials in a timely manner. In case of subsequent problems, they should safeguard their rights in accordance with the law and protect their own rights and interests in a timely manner.
In addition, it is necessary to strengthen social governance and effectively protect personal information and property security. The interviewed experts stated that in the future, it is still necessary to strengthen the promotion of anti fraud knowledge and the supervision of online platforms, and continue to create a social atmosphere of nationwide anti fraud.
Lu Jian, the captain of the Fourth Brigade of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Tianjin Public Security Bureau, stated that currently, the joint office at the city and district levels in Tianjin has organized a series of propaganda and education activities to prevent illegal telecommunications and network fraud, with the theme of "public security+industry" resonating on the same frequency. Through continuous and in-depth promotion through the full media of "voice screen, online, and micro", we have organized and carried out the "Five Entries Campaign" of anti fraud propaganda in communities, rural areas, families, schools, and enterprises, effectively improving the public's ability to prevent and recognize fraud, and have achieved phased results. In the future, relevant departments need to fully form a joint effort in cracking down and governance, and continue to promote various work such as heavy crackdowns, source control, industry governance, propaganda and prevention.
