During the 11th year of 2016, despite the holidays, telecom fraudsters are still very embarrassing and pose a great threat to the public’s personal and property safety. Recently, China's largest Internet security company 360 released the "Eleventh Telecom Fraud Big Data," which reveals in all aspects the fraudulent means, fraud areas, and the law of work and rest during the Eleventh Incident.
According to the big data, the 360 ​​mobile phone guards intercepted 10.4 billion harassment fraudulent calls for national user identification, including 98 million fraudulent calls, accounting for 9.4% of the total number of national calls. On average, they identified about 14 million intercepted fraudulent calls each day; holidays intercepted harassment. The number of fraudulent messages reached 16 million, and even reached 140,000 in 1 hour at the peak.
In addition, the big data also reveals some phenomena that are worthy of attention. For example, the first-tier cities such as Beishang Guangshen are the main targets of “precision fraud†by criminals; 9:00 am to 12:00 am every day is the peak period of fraudulent calls, accounting for About 20% of the total day of the week; the total number of fraudulent calls on the first and last days of the holiday is 7 days, which means that compared to the average person, the fraudsters of the morning class on the late vacation are obviously more “hardworkingâ€.

During the 11th period, 360 mobile phone guards intercepted 98 million fraudulent calls for national users, and identified about 14 million fraudulent calls per day. Among them, the total number of identification and interception of fraudulent calls in first-tier cities (Beibei Guangshen) was 30 million, accounting for approximately 31% of the national total.

Big data shows that fraudulent phone calls also have a “peak morningâ€. From 9:00 to 12:00 every morning, the peak period of fraudulent calls occurs, which accounts for about 20% of the whole day. During the long holidays, many people will wake up later than usual, and the personal free time in the morning is relatively high, so the chance of being successfully scammed is even higher.

According to reports, China's telecommunications fraud cases are growing at a rapid rate of 20% to 30% each year. In 2015, public security agencies across the country jointly filed 560,000 telecommunications fraud cases, an increase of 32.5% year-on-year, resulting in a total economic loss of 22.2 billion yuan. Since 2013, there have been a total of 94 fraud cases involving more than 10 million yuan in telecommunications fraud and 2085 cases involving more than one million yuan. During the eleventh period, it was a rare leisure holiday for the general public. However, telecom scammers did not take a rest and they intensified.
360 has been advocating "the launch of the People's War, combating telecommunications fraud," and actively calls on 360 mobile phone guards to mark and harass fraudulent calls and text messages. If a phone number is marked as harassing or fraudulent by a user who does not know each other and reaches a certain level, then when someone else receives a phone call from this number, it will be seen that the number is marked as suspected of harassment or fraudulent call. In this way, 360 mobile phone guards can filter out large amounts of fraud information for users, reducing their chances of being deceived and at the same time greatly increasing the fraud costs of fraudsters and effectively combating telecom fraud. Up to now, 900 million users have chosen to install 360 mobile phone guards.
