Zhongzhi Association: Counterfeit goods!, He also requested supplies from others, and the "rescue team leader" claimed to have saved 86 people in Zhuozhou
A heartwarming video that brings a scammer to the surface.
On August 20th, a man claiming to be Captain Liu of the Zhongzhi Association Zhuozhou Rescue Team came to a mobile phone store in Zhuozhou to share his experience of "saving 86 people alone" during the flood in Zhuozhou and shed tears. The deeply moved mobile phone shop owner approached and hugged him, and even gave him a new phone.
Unexpectedly, this video sparked questioning when it was posted online. Some people suspect the possibility of one person saving 86 people; It was also recognized that the man Liu was not a regular rescue volunteer, and had collected Baijiu and other materials from people online.
On August 24th, Mr. Ping, the true captain of the Zhuozhou Rescue Team of the China Association of Political Science and Technology, told Jimu News that there was no Liu in their team and he did not know each other. The headquarters of the China Association of Volunteers has issued a statement to rescue teams in various regions, stating that Liu's behavior has caused serious damage to the reputation of the association, and the association reserves the right to hold him accountable in accordance with the law.
At present, the police in Zhuozhou have intervened in investigating this matter.
The man claimed to be the captain of the rescue team and saved 86 people in Zhuozhou
"I completed the rescue of 86 people on my own, which was quite exhausting for most people. I fought tirelessly for 20 days without sleeping for 4 hours a day." "Now I have three cars at a repair shop in Zhuozhou, and the boss said it would cost 80000 to 100000 yuan for repairs, but he can repair them for free. I didn't agree, saying either sell them or drag them back to Northeast China." A video circulating online showed a man wearing an orange rescue team uniform and sunglasses telling others about his rescue experience in a mobile phone store.
In the narration, the man mentioned "our Zhongzhi Association Rescue Team" and also referred to himself as "Liu Team". "I used to want to go back, I wanted to give up, but I didn't. I felt like if I had left so suddenly, without a head or a tail, I couldn't hold back the people of Zhuozhou." "As the captain of the rescue team, I would try my best to do everything I could, and I wouldn't lose every life." At this point, he choked up and wiped away his tears. The people in the phone store quickly came forward to embrace and comfort him.
This video has attracted a lot of attention online, and many netizens have expressed doubts about the fact told by the man: "Saving 86 people alone in a flood? I have never seen it in Marvel movies." "The clothes are brand new, and there is not even a pause when speaking. The waist equipment is not commonly used by rescue teams, but rather like a backpack friend. The most outrageous thing is the trendy ten yuan sunglasses, and wearing swimming goggles is more formal and full of flaws."“
The reporter noticed that some netizens also introduced that when Zhuozhou was hit by a flood recently, he met this man in a WeChat group. His WeChat name was "Zhuozhou Zhongzhi Association Rescue Team - Liu". At that time, Liu announced in the group that "I urgently need ten bottles of Baijiu, the information has been confirmed, and the contact person is Captain Liu", and left his mobile number.
The mobile phone store owner claimed to have been deceived and gave this person a mobile phone as a gift
On August 24th, Jimu News contacted Mr. Yang, the person in charge of a mobile phone store in Zhuozhou City who released the above video. He introduced that this period was taken on August 20th at the store.
Mr. Yang recalled that on that day, the man came to their store and asked if there were any second-hand phones. The store staff then chatted with him, and the man said that he was from Northeast China, surnamed Liu, currently residing in Zhuozhou, and was the captain of the Zhuozhou Rescue Team of the China Association of Volunteers. During the Zhuozhou flood, he fought tirelessly in Zhuozhou for 20 consecutive days, saving 86 people alone. During this period, he did not return even after his father passed away.
Mr. Yang told reporters that Zhuozhou was hit by floods this time and was able to overcome the difficulties with the support of many local and non local rescue teams, so they are very grateful to the rescue personnel. Liu was wearing a rescue team uniform, and they did not suspect his identity, nor did they have reason to check his documents. "At that time, there were six people in the store who listened to him and did not see any flaws." Later, Mr. Yang, who was moved, came forward to hug and comfort Liu, and the staff filmed the video of Liu's narration.
Mr. Yang said that when Liu expressed his desire for an old phone, he gave the other party a new one. "He wants to give money, how could we possibly accept his money in that situation? It means that the people of Zhuozhou gave it to him."
Unexpectedly, after Mr. Yang posted this heartwarming video on online platforms, many netizens questioned the man's identity. A local netizen in Zhuozhou stated that he knows Liu in the video, who is not a legitimate rescue volunteer and has been soliciting materials from others online under the guise of disaster relief. The Zhongzhi Association Zhuozhou Rescue Team also confirmed with Mr. Yang that Liu was not a member of the team, so Mr. Yang deleted the video.
The China Association of Political Science and Technology declared that this person is a fake, and the police intervened
On the 24th, Jimu News contacted Mr. Ping, the captain of the Zhuozhou Rescue Team of the China Association of Political Science and Technology. He introduced that there was no Liu in their team, and neither he nor the team members knew Liu before. Recently, they only heard that Liu, as the captain of the Zhuozhou Rescue Team of the China Association of Volunteers, requested supplies from others. His behavior must be wrong, and the police are investigating. On the 23rd, the headquarters of the China Association of Volunteers issued a statement to various rescue teams to clarify this matter.
The reporter saw that in a statement, the China Association for the Betterment and Progress of the Communist Party of China wrote that someone, in the name of the person in charge of the Zhuozhou rescue team, used two videos called "Zhuozhou life-saving benefactor" to deceive the public's trust in Zhuozhou, demanding valuable items such as alcohol and mobile phones. This behavior has caused serious damage to the reputation of the association. The China Association for the Betterment and Progress of the Communist Party of China stated that the person in charge of the Zhuozhou rescue team is Mr. Ping. The association has never hired a person named Liu, nor has it entrusted any organization or individual to collect or demand property in any name. Zhongzhi Association reserves the right to pursue its relevant responsibilities in accordance with the law.
Statement from the China Association of Literary and Art Circles
Liu claimed that he saved 86 people alone, but this number was considered unrealistic by netizens. Mr. Ping said that those who are truly on the front line of rescue cannot have the energy to count or remember the numbers they have saved. "We have been on the front line of rescue since July 30th, and our spirits are in a state of excitement every day. How can we remember how many people we have saved in total?" However, Mr. Ping also said that they drove a stormboat to transfer trapped people. "As long as the boat is big enough and the number of times is enough, one person can bring out many people."
Mr. Yang told reporters that although he was cheated of a mobile phone this time, he was not particularly angry. "This person impersonated the captain of the rescue team, indicating that the real rescue team is respected and recognized by the public. They are our life-saving benefactors. Scammers are just an isolated phenomenon, and I believe there are still many good people in the world." Mr. Yang said that the police in Zhuozhou have found him to investigate this matter, and he has made a record. According to his understanding, the police have found Liu.
On the 24th, Jimu News reporter called the screen shot of Liu asking for Baijiu, but the mobile phone number left by Liu could not be connected. The reporter contacted the Zhuozhou Public Security Bureau to inquire about the progress of this matter, but the staff stated that the relevant information cannot be disclosed at the moment.
