Case:

Wang Chao (a pseudonym) lives in other places and is about 30 years old this year. At the beginning of July last year, when he was eating in a restaurant in our city, he added a netizen named "Unforgettable" through WeChat. The photo of this person on WeChat is a woman.

After getting to know each other, we chatted well on WeChat, and soon confirmed the relationship between men and women. After that, "Unforgettable" asked Wang Chao for more than RMB147,000 and an Apple mobile phone on the grounds of meeting, getting married and seeing a doctor. During the "object" period, Wang Chao asked to meet many times, but the other party always evaded it with various excuses.

Later, Wang Chao told his family about it and came to our city with his family. I went to the hospital where my girlfriend saw a doctor, but I didn't find this person. Wang Chao began to suspect that he had been cheated, so he reported the case to the public security organ. 20 15, 20 15, the police of the Second Criminal Investigation Brigade of Dong 'an Public Security Bureau immediately investigated the case after receiving the alarm.
