Leek-cutting is a network term that describes some people who live at the bottom of society and are deceived by so-called experts and stars because of their poor vigilance. As a victim, cutting leeks means that you have been cheated, while as a perpetrator, it means cheating.
Types of online fraud:
1, false consultation information
The industry that is negatively affected by false consultation information on the Internet is the securities industry. Black hands in the stock market or insiders of securities companies disclose false information on the Internet to drive up the stock price. After the deceived investors raised the stock price, they began to sell the stock.
According to the BBC, the share price of Coburg Group, a British coffee roasting company, has soared recently. The company's investigation found that this was mainly caused by an anonymous person spreading the news that the company might be about to transform on the Internet.
To this end, Koberg Group had to issue a statement to clarify. In addition, some British companies found that in some online chat rooms, some investors tried to manipulate the stock price by providing false information in order to profit from it.
People who publish false consultation information have two intentions: one is to make a profit, and the other is to play a prank, but it brings great losses to the victims and has a great negative impact on the Internet environment.
Netizens should treat the information on the internet differently, which is not necessarily true. After all, the network is virtual.
2. Online auction
Online auction and online shopping are undoubtedly the hot spots of online consumption. While providing convenience for consumers, it also triggered many related complaints.
Among them, the most common complaint is that after the buyer pays successfully in the auction, either the goods are not received at all, or the goods received are completely different from what he saw online.
