Case: The "cardholder" was detained with nearly 600 credit cards.
The popularity of credit cards has spawned a group of people who are unable to repay their credit card debts, and also produced a group of credit card "cardholders" who specialize in repaying credit card debts for others and charge a certain fee as a reward. Recently, Tongzhou police cracked a case of obstructing credit card management, arrested a suspect, seized nearly 600 bank cards and several POS machines.
On August 16, when investigating a public security case, the police of Yongshun Police Station of Tongzhou Public Security Bureau found that there were hundreds of credit cards, savings cards, POS machines and a large number of credit card consumption records in the house rented by the suspect Wang.
"It is impossible for normal people to give credit cards to others for safekeeping and use them at will." The police immediately summoned the suspect Wang to the police station for investigation. At the same time, the police actively contacted the credit card owner to understand the situation.
After review, Wang confessed that he was a professional "card keeper" and all the bank credit cards he held were used to help others repay their loans. Every time he repays a sum of money, he will charge a certain percentage of the handling fee according to the repayment amount. He also swipes the money from other credit cards through the POS machine.
At present, Wang has been criminally detained by Tongzhou police for allegedly obstructing credit card management, and the case is under further work.
