By issuing so-called virtual currency

virtual currency fraud calls 110 directly

many departments, such as the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, the central office of information technology, the Ministry of public security and so on, issued risk tips, saying that some criminals, under the banner of "financial innovation" and "blockchain", absorbed funds by issuing the so-called "virtual currency", "virtual assets" and "digital assets", thus infringing the legitimate rights and interests of the public

this kind of activity is not really based on blockchain technology, but on the hype of blockchain concept, illegal fund-raising, pyramid selling and fraud. In essence, it is a Ponzi scheme of "repaying the old by borrowing the new", which is difficult to maintain the long-term operation of funds

the public should treat the blockchain rationally, not blindly believe the promises, establish a correct monetary concept and investment concept, and effectively improve the risk awareness. Report to the public security organ in time after being cheated

extended data:

the first is the obvious networking and cross-border of virtual currency. Relying on the Internet and chat tools for transactions, and using online payment tools to balance funds, the risks spread widely and spread quickly. Some lawless elements set up websites by renting overseas servers to carry out activities for domestic residents and control illegal activities remotely

some indivials claim that they have obtained the investment quota of overseas high-quality blockchain projects in the chat tool group and can invest on their behalf, which is most likely fraud. Most of these illegal funds flow overseas, which makes it very difficult to supervise and trace

followed by deception, temptation and concealment. They use hot concepts to hype, fabricate various "tall and tall" theories, and some also use celebrity "big V" platforms to publicize. They use airdrop "candy" as temptation to claim that "currency value only rises but not falls", "investment cycle is short, income is high, and risk is low", which has strong bewitching

in practice, criminals illegally make huge profits by manipulating the price trend of the so-called virtual currency, setting profit and withdrawal threshold. In addition, some criminals also issue tokens under the guise of ICO, IFO, IEO, etc., or hype virtual currency in the way of IMO under the banner of sharing economy, which has strong concealment and confusion

finally, there are many kinds of illegal risks in this kind of behavior. Through public publicity, the illegal elements attract the public to invest funds, lure investors and development personnel to join, and constantly expand the fund pool with the t of currency appreciation and development offline profits, which has the characteristics of illegal fund-raising, pyramid selling, fraud and other illegal acts

Virtual currency is the currency used for electronic circulation. Now the scope of virtual currency is very large, including q-coin, bitcoin and so on. With the development of digital currency, virtual currency is becoming more and more abundant, which may become the mainstream in the future. For example, BTC, EOS, bcbot and so on are not only virtual currencies, but also algorithms, landing projects and technologies

virtual currency is mainly issued by online game service providers to purchase game props, such as equipment, clothing, etc. But at present, the use of virtual currency has gone far beyond this category. Virtual currency can be used to buy game cards, physical objects and download services of some movies and software

real risk

as the proct of e-commerce, virtual currency has begun to play an increasingly important role, and it is more and more connected with the real world. However, with the growth of virtual currency, the relevant laws and regulations are lagging behind, which has laid many hidden dangers

fraud

the private transaction of online virtual currency has realized the two-way circulation between virtual currency and RMB to a certain extent. The activity of these traders is to buy all kinds of virtual currencies and procts at a low price, and then sell them at a high price to earn profits. With the increase of such transactions, there are even virtual mints. In addition to the virtual currency provided by the main company, there are also some people who specialize in "virtual coin making" to obtain virtual currency by playing games and then resell it to other players

Taking Wenzhou as an example, there are about seven or eight such "virtual mints" with four or five hundred practitioners. This not only creates a bubble for the price of the virtual currency itself, but also causes trouble for the normal sale of the issuing company. It also provides a platform for selling and collecting money and money laundering for various cyber crimes. p>

impact system

in modern financial system, the issuers of money are generally central banks, which are responsible for the management and supervision of money operation. As the equivalent exchange goods used to replace the real currency circulation on the Internet, the virtual currency on the Internet is essentially the same as the real currency. The difference is that the issuers are no longer central banks, but Internet companies

if the development of virtual currency makes it form a unified market, each company can exchange with each other, or virtual currency is integrated and unified, and all of them are based on the same standard and price, then in a sense, virtual currency is currency, which is likely to form a threat impact on the traditional financial system or economic operation

reference: network virtual currency

The monetary gold and silver Bureau of the people's Bank of China issued the "risk warning on issuing or promoting digital currency in the name of the people's Bank of China". In the risk warning, the central bank stressed: our bank has not issued legal digital currency, nor authorized any institutions and enterprises to issue legal digital currency, and there is no promotion team. At present, the so-called "digital currency" in the market is not legal digital currency. The central bank stressed that the so-called "digital currency" launched by some institutions and enterprises and the so-called promotion of the central bank's issuance of digital currency may involve pyramid selling and fraud
