How to close the case if telecom fraud cannot be caught?

The people involved in the telecom fraud case will not be closed until they are caught. Telecom fraud is an act of using virtual facts or concealing the truth on the internet for the purpose of illegal possession to defraud a large number of public and private property. After the criminal case is put on file, if the public security organ cannot find the suspect, it shall continue the investigation, and if it is necessary to arrest the suspect, it may be wanted.

If the principal of the fraud case is not caught, the accessory shall be investigated for criminal responsibility. For accomplices in gang fraud, the benchmark punishment can be reduced by 20% to 50%, and for minor crimes, the benchmark punishment can be reduced by more than 50% or exempted from punishment according to law. If the principal of the crime of fraud is sentenced to public surveillance, criminal detention, fixed-term imprisonment or life imprisonment, during the execution period, he will conscientiously abide by the prison regulations, receive education and reform, and if he truly repents or makes meritorious deeds, his sentence may also be reduced.

Therefore, public security organs generally do not close fraud cases, and only those cases with clear criminal facts, sufficient evidence and written prosecution opinions will be closed.
