骗子真是无所不在,提醒大家注意,尤其是学术圈的学者。
我在5月30日收到一封自称是联合国经济与社会理事会工作人员的英文邮件,邀请我参加联合国经济与社会理事会年度会议。因邮件中并未提到支付费用的问题,所以我在将信将疑之余回复了邮件。后来我查了一下,发现会议本身真实存在,确实是在7月14日至23日之间在纽约举行。这让我几乎就要相信邮件的邀请是真的了。
在第二次回复邮件后,对方寄来邀请函与表格,表格其中一项是要填宾馆的预订号。这才知道我需要预付住宿费,才能得到预定号。在我发第三封邮件后,对方迅速回复了我,预付住宿费的方式,竟然不是发过来信用卡的支付链接,而是直接以国际汇款的方式汇到私人账号。
前面收到邮件与邀请函,我从将信将疑到差点相信,并给了我的个人信息。在此过程中,我问了一位在纽约工作的朋友,她强烈建议我不要相信,因为邮件不是发自联合国官方的邮箱地址。随后在收到以国际汇款方式预付住宿费用的邮件后,我已基本确定系骗子所为。在朋友的建议下,我发了邮件到联合国官方的邮箱进行举报。
如果收到类似的邮件,请不要提供个人信息,谨防被骗。我前面有些大意,提供了地址电话等信息。确实没想到,会有伪造联合国秘书长的签名,以联合国会议邀请的名义实施诈骗的。骗子越来越高明,所以不要动辄指责被害人愚蠢或贪婪,搞被害人有错论那一套。这只会导致很多人被骗以后不敢吱声,从而导致更多的人受骗上当。
以下是我5月30日收到的邮件:

复盘这起以联合国会议邀请的名义进行的诈骗,前期我由将信将疑转变为有些相信,主要是这样一些因素:
1. 我之前没有接触过联合国的相关机构,不清楚他们的做事流程,也不知道他们官方邮箱的地址。
2. 骗子邮件中所附网页打开后是联合国的网站,会议信息也是真实的。由于海外网站打开的速度比较慢,我没有花时间去细致地进一步查看相关信息。
3. 邮件的发件人Ms.Soo Hyun Kim,我在微信中搜索了一下,以她的名字和联合国为关键词,发现有两篇中文的文章提到这个人,身份分别是联合国教科文组织与和裁军有关的部门的工作人员。当时我下意识地认为,这个人她在联合国内部换工作职位了。
4. 邮件中并没有直接提到要付费的问题。
在过程中我有疑虑的地方在于:
1.邮件来得突兀,刚收到时我第一次回复邮件问对方,是谁推荐我参加这个会议,对方没有回答我的问题,而是让我与秘书处联系。
2. 昨天我是北京时间中午将近一点时回复的第二封邮件,结果发现北京时间下午四点就收到回邮。这让我有些诧异,照说美国东部时间正是凌晨,怎么会有工作人员在凌晨处理邮件。
3. 这两个疑虑让我决定,需要问一下在纽约工作的朋友,她看了后认为大概率是欺诈邮件。
4. 随后我发的第三封涉及预订宾馆环节的邮件也马上收到回复,对方先是让我在四种房型中选一种,接下来发给我国际汇款的账号信息。这下我就确定对方是诈骗分子了。
不过我还是有些奇怪,这么大费周章,就是为了骗取住宿费?住宿费的总额折算下来是2万多人民币。
