Recently, Chinese citizens in South Korea have repeatedly reported to the embassy in South Korea that they have received fraudulent calls from people pretending to be embassy staff. The caller ID phone number is consistent with the number listed on the embassy website. The fraudster falsely claims that the client's domestic identity information has been stolen and is suspected of committing a crime, and provides a false domestic "public security agency" phone number for the client to verify. After receiving the call, the so-called "public security agency" personnel claim that the situation is true and that a "deposit" must be paid, tricking the client into reporting to the designated Account transfer. Fortunately, the person involved saw through the scam in time and did not suffer any financial losses.

The Embassy in South Korea reminds all Chinese citizens in South Korea to be more alert to the above-mentioned fraud methods and strengthen prevention:


1. Scammers may fabricate fake caller numbers through technical means. If you have any doubts about the call, you can verify it by contacting the consular protection and assistance phone number or email address of the embassy or consulate in South Korea.




2. Domestic “public prosecutorial and judicial” agencies will not handle cases over the phone or online.




3. If a stranger asks you to transfer money or pay a "deposit", please be wary of fraud.




4. If you are unfortunately defrauded, please contact the remitting and receiving banks as soon as possible to try to freeze the transfer. Immediately report to the local police station in South Korea. If the payment is transferred through a domestic bank, the police can be reported to the public security bureau at the place of residence at the same time.

Recently, three private cars collectively ran a red light at an intersection in Jiaxing, Zhejiang. However, the traffic police stated that they will not be punished and praised! What's going on? At around 7pm on May 25th, a flashing and honking fire truck at the intersection of Haichao Road on Haining 525 National Highway, led by a black sedan, drove rapidly towards the burning spot. At this time, the left turn signal at the intersection was red, and two private cars waiting for passage in front of them made a collective U-turn. They immediately gave way to the fire truck. The black leading car and the fire truck quickly passed through the intersection. "Quick! Follow me!" The black sedan driver waved his hand vigorously, indicating that the fire truck was following him. Surprisingly, the fire truck also had a private car leading the way? If the limited height fire truck at the west gate of the community cannot enter, I will immediately drive and have them follow me to enter through another gate of the community

Several well-known Wall Street investment banks have been rumoring layoffs since last year, but around May this year, a second wave of layoffs hit, including Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan Chase, Credit Suisse, and UBS. But this is not the end yet. According to sources from several headhunters and professionals in the investment banking and research departments of international investment banks, First Financial has learned that due to the bleak global primary market, the "trading shortage" has seriously affected the profitability of investment banks. Therefore, the third wave of layoffs in the future may still be difficult to avoid. The IBD, which had expanded significantly earlier, is a severely affected area that could affect anyone from beginners to managing directors. It is worth noting that although some investment bank layoffs involve Chinese businesses, they mainly involve personnel in Hong Kong, and the impact is relatively small. Several top investment banks have made significant layoffs and reduced costs, according to reports from foreign media. Due to the sluggish trading environment, Gao Shengzheng
