Telefraud Targets International Students
A solid family education is crucial. Without it, you become an easy target for those with malicious intent. The cases discussed in the article are very typical: some international students, heavily supported by their families (often seen as the "hope of the family"), don't know how to handle difficulties. They get scared, fall into scam traps, and can't escape—some even taking their own lives. This leaves their elderly relatives heartbroken, and in the worst cases, the family loses both their savings and their loved one.
It's critical to guide children's values properly. When something goes wrong, they treat it like a disaster, hide it, and can't solve it themselves. Honestly, it's hard to sympathize with that. But let's be real—nothing is a "huge trouble."
Looking back now, many college students from a few years ago who took out "naked loans" were probably forced into certain activities due to the blackmail.
Also, stay vigilant about friends around you. If someone's bank account has been frozen or they've been blacklisted on a bad credit record, there's a good chance they're involved in telecom fraud or online gambling cases.
You never know what pitfalls are waiting for you.
