Spoofing the caller ID with the daughter’s number and calling the father
Before sending 34 million won, he sent the police to prevent damage


[앵커]

How would a father feel if he got a sudden call from his daughter’s number and cried that she had been kidnapped?

Please don’t be fooled. This is voice phishing.

Even the loving heart that thinks about the family is used as a crime.

This is reporter Hong Seong-wook.

[기자]

I got a call from my daughter’s number.

It was long, but the father could not come to his senses at the sound of his daughter crying.

[아버지 : 아이고, 우리 딸이 웬일이야?]
[딸 : 큰일 났어!]
[아버지 : 왜 사고 났어?]
[딸 : 아니 친구가…. 사채 돈을 빌렸는데, 내가 보증을 서줬어. 나 지금 지하 창고 같은데 끌려 왔어. 나보고 돈 내달래.]

And then that guy’s voice.

[보이스피싱 사기범 : 사채업자 이상철입니다. 제가 한 가지만 말씀드리지만, 아버님이 돈을 대신 갚으시면 따님이 머리털 한 끗 안 다치고 집으로 가게 됩니다. 근데 제가 오늘 돈을 못 보면 따님 몸속에 있는 콩팥 하나 떼서 돈으로 바꿀 겁니다.]

Fake hijacking by a voice phishing scammer.

I spoofed my daughter’s number as caller ID and called my dad.

The father, who runs a convenience store, found a bank account in the store and found that 34 million had been won in cash.

The woman reported it and the police were sent, but the father went to the bank after hearing that his daughter had been kidnapped.

Just before the payment, the girl was safe and police confirmed it was voice phishing, preventing the damage.

[박 모 씨 / 보이스피싱 사기 피해자 : 전화 받자마자 울면서 얘길 하는데 우는 끝머리가 딸 같기도 하고 잘 구별이 되지 않았어요. 딸이라고 믿었어요. 처음엔.]

Fraudsters also collect personal information from criminals through illegal apps and hacking.

The police asked for special attention, saying that the number of family members or acquaintances by manipulating caller ID numbers and asking for money is increasing.
