As the New Year’s Eve approached, someone sold New Year’s cakes on social media at below market prices. Unexpectedly, a group of mothers condemned that the person had been involved in fraud earlier, falsely claiming that they were selling milk powder and children’s books, but they disappeared after receiving the money. No trace, even blocked the buyer’s mother contact method.
Some deceived mothers said that because the other party claimed to be the same mother, they temporarily slackened and mistrusted the scammer, and severely accused the other party of being "unconscionable" and "even the money for milk powder."
The deceived mothers even set up a suffering group and collectively report to the police. The group administrator said that it has received about 80 cases so far, and the amount of deception involved ranges from tens to several thousand yuan.
The police said they had received a report and no one has been arrested.
Mother to save money online shopping milk powder fraudsters take the initiative to approach low prices
A Qing, a new mother who works as a sales clerk, said that in order to save money and prepare for the baby's living expenses, she chose to trade baby products, such as diapers and milk powder, on the mother group on social media.
She said that online transactions are "almost half cheaper" than buying supplies from regular stores.
Aqing recalled that in early January of this year, she posted a request for milk powder on Facebook’s mother group. A person named "Cindy Jen Wong" took the initiative to send a private message to her, saying that she was both a mother and had milk powder that Aqing wanted to buy. But her baby does not like to drink and does not want to waste, so she proposes to sell milk powder for 60 yuan a can, and emphasizes "SF Express (fee)".
Aqing was convinced that the other party was a mother and there was no fraud, so he immediately agreed to buy 10 cans and transferred 600 yuan to the other party.
However, after a few minutes, Aqing saw someone in the mothers group claiming to be defrauded by "Cindy". She immediately contacted each other, but "Cindy" had blocked Aqing.
"I was sitting in the moon, and I was in a bad state of mind, and I was so easy to believe." Aqing was frankly deceived because "I was stupid." I hope other mothers will take the warning.

The other mother Z was also defrauded of money by a person named "Cindy".
Z recalled that in early January this year, he asked for milk powder redemption coupons in the Facebook mothers group, saying that the price was far lower than the market price. At this time, "Cindy" contacted and sold 4 redemption coupons at 250 yuan, but they received the money. Blocked and missing.
Z pointed out that the other party emphasized "SF Express (fee)", but a few redemption coupons were almost weightless, and the local surface mail postage was cheap, so she was suspicious.
However, because the other party has made a video call, Z feels credible, so he needs to transfer money.
Z sighed, "As a teacher, I want to save money when I buy milk powder online," but the scammers "even the money for mother's milk powder" made her feel that the other party was "so unscrupulous" and "a little lacking in virtue."
Z frankly said that although he has called the police, he does not expect to get the fraudulent funds back. He only hopes to tell his experience and does not want the other party to continue to swindle.

Mother K, who asked for a popular toddler book in the parent-child discussion area Baby Kingdom, was defrauded of 150 yuan.
K said that online shopping has always been only cautious. After receiving a private message from a scammer, he once "started" to see the other party's past posts on the discussion board, and asked the other party to take pictures of books first, but he was still cheated.
K once proposed to meet with Cindy for delivery, but the other party claimed to be living in Bofulam. Because of the inconvenience of the operation after the operation, he refused to hand it in person. He even said that he was willing to receive a book deposit first, and even said that he would give a K "discount for shipping packages in the future "Make K believe it true.
K said, "Unexpectedly, someone would break the law for more than a hundred yuan," calling this incident a lesson.
K added that she succeeded in buying books from other members in Baby Kingdom, but she became cautious. For example, she asked the other party to take pictures of the product at a certain angle before she was willing to pay.
