The Reporting Center of the Central Network Information Office accepted and disposed of a number of websites involved in counterfeiting and fraud according to law.

Cctv newsAccording to WeChat WeChat official account, the reporting center of the Central Network Information Office, for a period of time, the reporting center of the Central Network Information Office has continuously received reports of online fraud involving counterfeiting the official website platforms of central and local state organs and their directly affiliated institutions, enterprises and institutions. The Reporting Center of the Central Network Information Office attaches great importance to netizens’ reports, actively coordinates relevant departments and localities to carry out research and disposal work, and promptly cuts off the communication chain of counterfeit and fraudulent websites. Up to now, more than 300 related harmful website platforms have been coordinated and disposed of, involving 22 central and local state organs and their directly affiliated institutions, and 18 enterprises and institutions, effectively protecting people’s legitimate rights and interests and property safety, and maintaining the reputation and image of party and government organs and enterprises and institutions.

According to the clues reported by netizens, some of these counterfeit fraudulent website platforms impersonate websites such as national financial institutions on the grounds of financial investment to trick netizens into investing in financial management; Some counterfeit websites of central and state organs on the grounds of handling refund subsidies to induce netizens to pay handling fees; Some counterfeit websites of enterprises and institutions and sell products such as false recharge cards on the grounds of consumption recharge; Some fake websites such as colleges and universities and certificate inquiries on the grounds of document handling, and falsely claim to handle false documents such as correspondence diplomas and qualification certificates; Some fake academic journal websites on the grounds of soliciting contributions for periodicals, defrauding the payment of manuscripts and page fees, etc. Criminals mainly deceive netizens by mirroring and copying the official website platforms of relevant departments, making it difficult for netizens to distinguish between authenticity and falsehood, and using the publicity of "high interest" and "subsidy refund" as gimmicks to induce netizens to enter the fraud trap, which is highly confusing and tempting. In order to avoid supervision, the vast majority of counterfeit and fraudulent website servers are located overseas, and the domain names of websites often change, which is highly concealed.

In response to this outstanding problem, the Reporting Center of the Central Network Information Office strengthened cooperation with relevant departments and localities, scientifically and accurately judged and reported, and adopted various methods such as canceling domain names and shielding interception to strengthen disposal, and achieved initial results. In the next step, the Reporting Center of the Central Network Information Office will, together with relevant parties, co-ordinate and guide local online information reporting institutions to carry out special reports on counterfeit and fraudulent website platforms, improve and improve the working mechanism for accepting and handling collaborative reports, and form a joint effort to prevent and crack down on online fraud. Here, we also remind netizens to be vigilant, pay attention to discrimination, and beware of being deceived. In case of relevant information, you can report it through official website, the reporting center of the Central Network Information Office, or official website, the reporting department of the relevant local network information, so as to jointly safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of netizens and create a clear cyberspace.
