(RCMP warn about falsified kidnappings targeting Chinese nationals)
Lower Mainland RCMP are renewing their warning about a scam that targets newly arrived Chinese immigrants trying to convince them a loved one has been kidnapped in order to extort money from their families.
RCMP spokeswoman Staff Sgt. Annie Linteau said police have had three new cases reported to them in the first week of October, the first since police became aware of the scam in July and since forming a task force to investigate the activity.
这是利用大量疑似中国涉贪人员海外亲属脆弱心理的犯罪,手法阴暗而残忍。贪污嫌犯自有法律公断,而且罪不一定致死,这种株连九族对家属下手的做法,无异于黑社会,海外华人的耻辱,天理难容!
个人认为,如果生活方式不是高调炫富、引人疑窦的话,这种事情是可以避免的。可怕的是,很多年轻人还会装门面炫富,炫爹,引以为戒吧。另外,强烈呼吁华人APP开发商开发手机植入寻人警报APP,因为海外华人的生活圈一般还是离不开华人。所以,借助大家手里都有的手机,或可增加拯救生命的几率。
