Urgent reminder from the Chinese Embassy in the United States! Citizen | China | Chinese Embassy in the United States
On July 7th, the official website of the Embassy of the People's Republic of China in the United States of America issued an urgent reminder to Chinese citizens to beware of criminals using our embassy's security hotline 202-4952216 to commit telecommunications fraud.
The Chinese Embassy in the United States stated that on July 7th, several Chinese citizens reported that some criminals had used the hotline of the Chinese Embassy in the United States to carry out telecommunications fraud. The language used was to lure individuals into providing personal information and making bank transfers on the grounds of personal information leakage, suspected illegal activities, and transferring calls to domestic police.
The Chinese Embassy in the United States solemnly reminds Chinese citizens in the United States:
The consular protection and assistance telephone of the 1. Embassy is only used to answer urgent calls from Chinese citizens and will not take the initiative to dial out or provide transfer services.
The 2. embassy will not notify Chinese citizens that there are cases involved that need to be handled, will not transfer the domestic public security organs or ask the parties to call back for further contact, and will not ask for the so-called "bail" or "guarantee" or bank transfer.
3., please avoid giving personal information to strangers on the phone or rashly transferring money. If you receive a suspected fraud call, please hang up immediately, and you can take the initiative to call the embassy to receive insurance calls for verification afterwards. If you unfortunately encounter fraud, please report to the police in time.
