What is the act of impersonating a courier?

Pretending to be a courier is fraud. "Fraudulent use of other people's identity information to pretend to be someone else's courier is legally fraudulent." Lawyer Wang Wei of Liaoning Anxing Law Firm said that according to Article 266 of the Criminal Law, if the amount of fraud reaches more than 2,000 yuan, it can constitute a crime and will be investigated for criminal responsibility. However, fraudulent express delivery that does not reach a certain amount is a violation of the Public Security Administration Punishment Law. According to Article 49 of the Law on Public Security Administration Punishment: Anyone who steals, swindles, plunders, robs, extorts or intentionally damages public or private property shall be detained for more than 5 days 10 days, and may also be fined for less than 500 yuan; If the circumstances are serious, he shall be detained for more than 10 and less than 15, and may also be fined less than 1000 yuan. In this process, the courier company should also bear certain civil compensation.

The penalties for illegally detaining express mail are as follows:

1. The postal administration department shall order it to make corrections, confiscate its illegal income, and impose a fine of not less than 50,000 yuan but not more than 6,543,800 yuan;

2. If the circumstances are serious, a fine of 6.5438+10,000 yuan but not more than 200,000 yuan shall be imposed, and it may be ordered to suspend business for rectification until its express business license is revoked.

Legal basis:

Article 266 of the Criminal Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that whoever defrauds public or private property in a relatively large amount shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance, and shall also or only be fined; If the amount is huge or there are other serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years and shall also be fined; If the amount is especially huge or there are other especially serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years or life imprisonment, and shall also be fined or confiscated. Where there are other provisions in this Law, such provisions shall prevail.
