Guangdong network police cluster cracked down on the "network water army" criminal activities, involving 870 million!

  Recently, in accordance with the deployment of the summer public security crackdown and the special action to crack down on the "network water army", the Guangdong network security department launched a cluster attack on the criminal activities of the "network water army", successfully destroying 35 criminal gangs and criminally detaining 192 suspects according to law, involving a total amount of 870 million yuan. Some typical cases are as follows.

  01

  E-commerce brushing amount

  Chen Mou Da and others, under the banner of "tens of millions of traders", set up a special brushing platform to provide paid brushing services for online e-commerce. By publishing commodity links and brushing tasks provided by merchants, false transactions and comments are completed by docking "brushing hands", which seriously damages the network environment and market order.

  In July 2023, Foshan launched a network-closing operation, knocking out three criminal gangs in one fell swoop, destroying four dens, arresting 45 people involved in the case, and taking 21 criminal compulsory measures, involving more than 180 million yuan of funds.

  02

  Select and vote to brush the votes.

  The work of the network security department in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province found that Zheng and others started the so-called network technology company, aiming at all kinds of online selection activities, pretending to be the staff of the selection organizing Committee, obtaining the information of the selected people, and providing customers with online selection, ticket brushing and voting manipulation services for compensation.

  In July 2023, Shenzhen launched a crackdown on the gang, arrested 47 people involved in the case, and seized more than 180,000 groups of illegally obtained candidates' telephone numbers, involving more than 4 million yuan.

  03

  Brush praise and forward control and evaluation

  According to the work of the network security department in Qingyuan, Guangdong, Yao Mouhua set up a network technology company, specially set up a website of "Micro Shake Mall", and provided customers with false "review praise" and other brush control and evaluation services on platforms such as Tik Tok, Aauto Quicker, Weibo and Xiaohongshu.

  In July, 2023, Qingyuan Net Security Department, together with Economic Investigation Department and local sub-bureaus, launched a network-closing operation and arrested 10 suspects, involving more than 10 million yuan.

  Next, the network security department of the public security organ will focus on four categories of "network water army" illegal crimes, such as "disinformation and drainage", "public opinion extortion", "paid deletion of posts" and "brush quantity control and evaluation", and continue to launch a multi-wave fierce offensive, forming a powerful shock, further compressing the living space of "network water army" and creating a clear and orderly network environment.
