Report virtual currency transactions

It is not likely that the public security organ will file a case of virtual currency transaction fraud, because the virtual currency transaction fraud generally involves a large number of people, a wide range, a small amount and strong anonymity

it is difficult for the public security organs to collect evidence and arrest, because most of the information of the Chuangshi operation team of the virtual currency scam is not public and there is no way to collect evidence. Maybe the mastermind will become a victim after being arrested

with the popularity of virtual currency, disputes related to it appear frequently. Recently, the people's Court of Futian District in Shenzhen tried a dispute caused by investment in virtual currency. The court reminded that the investment transaction of virtual currency is not protected by law, and investors should keep sober and rational

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

Alipay will ban virtual currency transactions. Virtual currency in China's law does not specify that the law is not illegal. Strong> recently issued a statement that Alipay banned the trading of virtual currencies, but most of them expressed support for Alipay's behavior, saying Alipay was right because there are many uses of virtual currency, which can effectively avoid being exploited by lawless elements. p> Although there is no clear regulation on virtual currency, there are some behaviors such as pyramid schemes in some virtual currencies. There are various forms of currencies, which will lead to various frauds. For those who want to invest, they must be cautious and wait until they know all about them before making a decision< however, with the rapid development of the Internet, maybe virtual currency will develop better

There are two reasons for the prohibition of virtual currency trading by the state:

1. The price fluctuates violently and the consumer protection is lacking:

virtual currency is the proct of network, and the digital information flowing in the network is beyond everyone's control. The code of cyberspace is the basis of the operation of virtual currency, investors can only operate through the front-end interface, seemingly "control" the virtual currency. The operator of the virtual currency service organization may become the actual controller of the virtual currency through the control code

bitcoin and other so-called "virtual currencies" lack a clear value basis, the market is full of speculative atmosphere, the price fluctuates violently, and investors blindly follow suit, which is easy to cause capital losses

2. Evade supervision and become the "accomplice" of criminal activities:

bitcoin is popular as a payment tool in the so-called "dark web" world“ The "dark net" is full of all kinds of serious criminal activities. One of the original intentions of the invention of bitcoin is to evade regulation. It has the characteristics of anonymity and convenient cross-border flow, and has become the preferred tool of "underground economy"

the existence of bitcoin and exchanges and other instrial chains has constructed a illegal financial market for asset transfer and financing in addition to legal currency, increased the difficulty of regulatory authorities in managing financial security and stability, and promoted regulatory arbitrage and financial crimes. The risks and social security risks it brings to the financial market are far higher than its innovative value
