Losses have come from either NSW, Victoria, Queensland orWestern Australia; hoSwever the scam is targeting people nationwide.“These scams are particularly nasty and worryingly we’re seeing a dramatic spike in thePage 9

2 July 2018Chinese community being targeted. In May, there was a 400 per cent increase in reportsof these scams and losses more than doubled,” ACCC Acting Chair Delia Rickard said.There are two main variations of this scam. First, speaking in Mandarin, a scammer willcall you directly or leave you an ‘urgent’ voice message to call back. The scammer willimpersonate a parcel delivery service and/or Chinese authorities and claim you are inserious trouble as they have intercepted a package addressed to you with fraudulentdocuments such as fake passports.The scammer will then threaten you with extradition to China to face criminal charges incourt unless money is sent to them. They will claim this money is needed to prove yourinnocence while they investigate the supposed crime.“In the past month, Scamwatch has received multiple reports of a cruel variation of thisscam targeting Chinese students in Australia,” Ms Rickard said.“The scammer will again claim to student victims that they have been involved in criminalactivity and threaten them, and even their family, with criminal sanctions unless theypretend they have been kidnapped, including by taking photos of themselves bound andgagged.”“Scammers will then use these photos to extort money from the student’s family byclaiming the student has been kidnapped,” Ms Rickard said.The most important thing members of the Chinese community in Australia can do toprotect themselves from this scam is be aware about how it works and warn their friendsand family.“If you’re ever called by someone making threats about arrest or deportation, it is a scam.It’s very frightening to receive these calls and scammers use your fear against you soyou’ll send them money or participate in a bogus kidnapping,” Ms Rickard said.“Don’t fall for their threats. Instead, hang up the phone and report it to your local police. Ifyou think the scammer has your bank account details, contact your bank immediately.”Members of the Chinese community in Australia can also report the scam atwww.scamwatch.gov.au.A translated version of this media release is also available: 针对华人社区的威胁和绑架骗局 – Chinese Simplified (PDF 145.95 KB)Page 10
