00:00 Before watching the video, I remind you that there is more content on the Hotpoint website.
00:03 The rapid development of the Internet has led to countless cyber-bombings,
00:08 which has become a global problem.
00:11 In yesterday's special report, we mentioned that it is impossible to completely eradicate cyber-bombing.
00:17 So it is impossible to reverse the trend of cyber-bombing by the government's announcement.
00:23 After all, whether you are fooled or not depends on whether the people are alert.
00:30 The Internet is full of traps.
00:33 How should the people prevent themselves from falling into the trap of fraud?
00:36 If you are fooled by accident, what can you do next?
00:40 The founder of the Internet Security Service, LGMS, Feng Zongfu,
00:43 said in an interview with 8.0 News that
00:46 people should remember three principles when they go online.
00:49 First, do not reveal the password casually.
00:52 He said that many links on the Internet are probably fishing websites set by illegal immigrants.
00:58 Especially those who often use the online version of WhatsApp,
01:01 remember not to reveal your own information and password casually when you log in,
01:06 to avoid hackers from obtaining your information in the conversation.
01:09 Second, do not click on the link or scan any QR code.
01:15 Because hackers often invade users' communication software in this way.
01:20 Third, do not be impulsive.
01:22 If you receive the so-called "relatives" sending you information,
01:25 and ask you to do something unusual,
01:27 such as borrow money from you or ask you to invest,
01:30 remember not to pay the money back immediately.
01:32 You must calm down and check again.
01:35 Or pay attention to whether the bank account given by the other party is his or her signature.
01:38 If you find something wrong, don't pay the money back.
01:41 Meanwhile, the senior expert of the Dama Computer Emergency Response Team,
01:45 Sharifah, said that
01:46 in fact, the school, NGOs, Dama Communications and the Media and Culture Committee,
01:50 and even the banks have been very active in improving people's awareness of the "bombing".
01:55 Including sending reminders on social media,
01:57 holding "bombing lectures" and other activities on a regular basis.
02:00 But he believes that whether to listen to suggestions or follow instructions
02:05 depends on the people themselves.
02:06 If the people really strictly follow the "bombing guide" given by the authorities,
02:11 then it can greatly reduce the chances of being "bombed".
02:13 Minister of Communications, Zhang Nianqun, also admitted during the interview
02:17 that this trend of cyber-bombing is difficult to reverse.
02:20 After all, the lives of modern people are inseparable from the Internet.
02:23 For the Dama people,
02:24 everyone spends more than eight hours on the Internet every day.
02:28 So when people spend so much time investing in the Internet world,
02:31 criminals are more likely to create countless traps for users through Internet convenience.
02:37 Therefore, Zhang Nianqun believes that
02:39 raising awareness and maintaining vigilance is a lesson that the people should learn
02:43 to avoid becoming the next victim.
02:48 The cyber-bombing techniques are getting more and more advanced.
02:49 Even WhatsApp, a commonly used communication app in Malaysia,
02:53 has become the latest tool for cyber-bombing.
02:55 It is being used by criminals to steal money.
02:57 Dama Computer Emergency Response Team Senior Specialist, Sharifah,
03:00 and Internet Security Service Company, LGMS founder, Feng Zongfu,
03:03 repeatedly reminded the public during the interview
03:05 that when receiving any information,
03:06 they should remain suspicious and calm down.
03:09 Especially when receiving unusual borrowed information,
03:12 they should think twice before paying back or following instructions.
03:16 What we can really advise the public is that they have to be precautious.
03:21 They have to be well-equipped with knowledge and awareness about security.
03:26 Never have a 100% assurance of something that you receive over the Internet.
03:32 Always have a little sceptical about it.
03:35 Like, be a bit suspicious.
03:37 "Eh, suddenly my friend messaged me asking for money."
03:41 Like, suddenly they send a message, they say they're in trouble,
03:45 they want you to transfer some money to them.
03:47 So, be a bit suspicious of that.
03:50 Many times, cyber-bombing is done because we trust the tools we use too much.
03:54 So, we don't stop and analyse the situation.
03:57 That's why we get scammed.
03:58 So, when we receive any information,
04:00 whether it's money transfer or money transfer to an account,
04:03 we should calm down and not be nervous.
04:05 Then, we can use other methods to confirm.
04:07 Like, call back or meet up to discuss the matter.
04:11 So, don't be nervous.
04:12 First, calm down and not be nervous.
04:15 Second, we need to use other channels to confirm
04:17 whether the message we receive is true or not.
04:20 Of course, people can choose to call and ask directly.
04:23 But Minister of Communications, Zhang Nianxun, warned
04:26 that today's AI can imitate the subtle smile of a human being
04:29 and can disguise it as anyone.
04:31 So, she suggested that people should use a more rigorous way to confirm
04:34 whether the other party is harmed and whether they really need help.
04:37 So, in this case, how do you do further verification?
04:41 For example, ask questions that only the parties themselves know.
04:45 So, it becomes a very important step.
04:47 So, I think what the general public should pay special attention to
04:51 is that when it involves any money transfer,
04:53 you must confirm the other party's identity again and again.
04:57 You must always maintain your vigilance.
05:00 I think this is a very important point.
05:02 In addition to increasing vigilance,
05:04 the founder of the network security service company, LGMS, Feng Zongfu, said
05:07 that in order to prevent cyber fraud,
05:09 people must start with education
05:10 so that they can learn how to use the internet correctly.
05:14 Minister of Communications, Zhang Nianxun, also pointed out
05:16 that today's fraud is a "switching soup without switching medicine".
05:18 If people have good digital literacy
05:20 and know how to identify the real and fake internet,
05:22 they can greatly reduce the chances of being tricked.
05:25 I think some frauds are actually the same.
05:28 It's just that it's a "switching soup without switching medicine".
05:31 So, in the end, as users of the internet,
05:34 whether our digital literacy has made us aware of
05:37 the existence of the internet,
05:38 it's actually a potential risk for us.
05:40 Public education is very important.
05:42 We hope that through public education,
05:44 we can make everyone aware of the new fraud model
05:48 and raise their vigilance.
05:50 Government agencies and related regulatory bodies,
05:53 such as MSNBC,
05:54 they can do a lot of things in education.
05:56 Although there are a lot of things in education on the internet,
06:01 but when we receive a message from someone,
06:04 for example, if we know someone,
06:06 we will not lose any sense of security.
06:10 Raising vigilance is an important part of preventing fraud,
06:16 especially now that the fraud is very cunning.
06:19 Even the National Fraud Response Center, NSRC,
06:22 has become a weapon of criminals.
06:25 Nan Li, Director of the National Police Investigation Bureau,
06:27 pointed out yesterday that
06:28 the police intercepted 23 reports this year,
06:32 and they received a call from NSRC officials,
06:36 claiming that the phone number was reported,
06:38 and that the number had to be cancelled to receive an investigation.
06:41 But when the victim,
06:42 according to the so-called investigation officer's instructions,
06:45 transferred the money to the designated bank account,
06:48 there was no further news.
06:50 This is when they knew that they were deceived.
06:53 What's more frightening is that
06:54 such a fraud model has accumulated more than 720,000 yuan in losses.
06:59 So Nan Li reminds the public that
07:00 NSRC only accepts reports,
07:03 it's one-way communication,
07:05 and it won't contact the public.
07:07 Don't be fooled easily.
07:09 If you really accidentally fall into a fraud trap,
07:11 what can the public do?
07:13 Sharifah, Senior Specialist of the Danish Computer Emergency Response Team, said,
07:17 "The victim can call the hotline 997,
07:20 and contact the National Fraud Response Center mentioned earlier.
07:23 This way, they can assist the victim in filing a case.
07:26 Once the report is received,
07:27 the police can take action to investigate and arrest the fraudster.
07:31 As for the Deputy Minister of Communications, Zhang Lianqun,
07:33 he advised the victim to contact the National Fraud Response Center
07:36 within 24 hours.
07:39 Because the earlier the victim files the report,
07:41 the greater the chance of cash flow,
07:43 and the higher the chance of getting the money back.
07:46 If the public has been waiting for a long time to file the report,
07:47 the money may not be traced,
07:50 or even transferred abroad.
07:52 Then the difficulty of the victim getting the money back
07:54 will be greatly increased."
