Two hundred and forty-eight huge sums of money that have disappeared
Today is the last Friday at the end of October, and it is the monthly meeting of the bureau's party committee, and as the deputy director in charge of criminal investigation, Ling Zhan naturally has to attend.
It's just that the meeting started at two o'clock in the afternoon and had just been held for more than half an hour, when the director of the office suddenly knocked on the door and came in to report to Ma Jinzhong: "Ma Bureau, there is a major case of theft of funds reported below. ”
"What theft case should be reported to the city bureau, and the sub-bureau can't handle it?"
"It is more than 50 million yuan of liquidity in the account of Ruibo Group, and in the past 40 minutes, I don't know who transferred it through the network in three tranches. ”
"I don't know who transferred it? more than 50 million?"
Not only Ma Jinzhong, but the surprise in the hearts of everyone attending the meeting was suddenly written on their faces.
"Ma Bureau, Political Commissar Sun, I'll take someone to the scene to have a look. ”
"Okay. Ruibo Group is a well-known private enterprise in the city and the province, and we must strive to solve the case as soon as possible and try to reduce the losses of Ruibo Group. ”
"Yes. ”
got up and left the conference room and did not return to the office of the serious crime team, because Xun Jianguo, Rong Liang and Qi Zhibin were all outside to investigate the relevant clues of the "Old Buddha Society", so Ling Zhan drove directly to Ruibo Group after going downstairs. Considering what the office director said about "going away through the Internet", Ling Zhan called Qi Zhibin on the road.
"Team Ling, what are your instructions?"
"You put down your work for the time being, and rush to the Ribo Group immediately, where I will wait for you. ”
"Yes. ”
It wasn't until Qi Zhibin came to Ruibo Group that he knew what had happened.
"Here's the thing. "The chief financial officer of Ruibo Group is a middle-aged man in his fifties named Chen Xugui, who looks elegant and speaks in a hurried tone. "Because today is the weekend and the end of the month, the finance department has just submitted the financial statements for this month in the morning. No, in less than two hours, the 56.15 million liquidity in the account was transferred. ”
"Mr. Chen, you speak slowly. ”
"At noon, I went home and had a little rest after dinner, and then drove back. When I didn't want to go halfway, I suddenly received a bank transfer notification on my phone. At first glance, I saw that the amount was 150,000 yuan, and the purpose was to buy materials, so I didn't care much about it at the time. Because according to the company's financial system, the deputy general manager in charge of production has the right to temporarily borrow materials of less than 500,000 yuan in case of emergency. So, I subconsciously thought that it was the payment for some raw materials that the production department urgently needed.
However, in less than 10 minutes, I received a text message transferring 6 million yuan. I was shocked and hurriedly dialed the chairman's phone. Because in addition to the chairman of the company, no second person has the right to use more than one million yuan of funds. Even for me, the payment of more than one million yuan must be signed by the chairman. ”
What surprised Chen Xugui even more was still to come, as soon as the phone was connected, Zhong Rui's anxious voice came: "All the existing 56.15 million yuan of liquidity in the company's account has been transferred, do you understand the situation?"
"Chairman, I just went home for dinner and was on my way back, and I called you because I received a transfer text message. ”
"Come back right away, I've already sent someone to call the police. ”
Because he was too excited, Chen Xugui paused before continuing: "When I rushed back to the company, a minister of the finance department, two accountants, and two cashiers had already been controlled by the security guards in the company's conference room.
When I asked about the situation, what was strange was that when the 56.15 million yuan fund was divided into three tranches, one was 150,000, one was 6 million, and one was 50 million, there was no one in the office of the Finance Department.
Through the inquiry of the bank, it can be found that the funds are indeed logged in to the online banking through the computer of our finance department. ”
This is no longer strange, hearing Ling Zhan and Qi Zhibin's ears can already be described as shock. Although as a public security officer, I am not very familiar with the financial system of enterprises, but I still know the basic common sense.
For a company with a sound financial system, each payment must go through a certain approval process before it can be finally realized. For example, Ruibo Group, according to Chen Xugui, the chief financial officer, the power of their company's capital expenditure is basically in the hands of him and Chairman Zhong Rui. That is to say, the capital expenditure of less than one million yuan can be done as long as Chen Xugui signs. More than one million yuan, it must be signed by Chen Xugui and Zhong Rui before the Finance Department will execute. Even though we are now using the very convenient online transfer process, the process is still the same, and even more complicated and insured.
First of all, the payment of a sum of money must be signed by Chen Xugui, or Chen Xugui and Zhong Rui. Only in case of emergency, mainly to meet the needs of production, and the funds used do not exceed 500,000 yuan, the deputy general manager in charge of production has the right to temporarily borrow part of the funds. However, it is necessary to go through the procedures afterwards.
Secondly, online transfer requires both the login password of online banking, the U shield password, and the payment password. Among the three passwords, there are three people who know the login password, namely the finance minister, the accountant in charge of bank accounts, and the online banking cashier, two people who know the U shield password, who are in charge of accounting and the online banking cashier, and two people who know the payment password, the online banking cashier and the financial director.
In other words, only the online banking teller has all three passwords. No one else will be able to complete a normal online transfer. Naturally, the cashier of the online bank has become the biggest suspect in the eyes of Ling Zhan.
I only listened to Chen Xugui's introduction to the company's financial system, and I didn't have time to do further investigation. The first task is to immediately track the whereabouts of the huge amount of money that has been transferred, and find a way to freeze the transferred account in time, so as to minimize the loss of Ribo Group.
When Qi Zhibin quickly logged in to the emergency platform that had just been established by the Ministry of Public Security, which specialized in dealing with online fraud and could effectively freeze the transfer of defrauded funds into the account in the shortest possible time, he soon discovered the whereabouts of the 56.15 million yuan of funds transferred by Ruibo Group.
The first two transactions, that is, 6.15 million yuan, were transferred to a private account. The third tranche of 50 million was also transferred to a private account. Although the names of the owners of the two accounts are different, they are located in the same location, and they are both in a city in a province in southwest China.
Fortunately, before the suspect had time to transfer the huge amount of money in the two accounts, Qi Zhibin froze the two accounts in a timely manner through the emergency platform. At this point, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. In particular, Zhong Rui, chairman of Rainbow Group. Although he had been on the scene, since Ling Zhan and the others arrived, he had not spoken, and only after the transferred funds were successfully frozen, did he take the initiative to greet Ling Zhan and say, "Thank you, thank you." ”
The losses of the Rainbow Group have been successfully recovered, but their work has only just begun.
Unexpectedly, next, after Ling Zhan and Qi Zhibin's investigation of the whereabouts of the five people in the Finance Department during the time period when the funds were transferred, it was found that they all had alibi evidence and witnesses. Moreover, the surveillance footage in the corridor and in the room of the finance department proved that there was indeed no one in the finance department at the time of the crime.
This kind of theft case is the first time that Ling Zhan, who has been a police officer for many years. And Qi Zhibin is not to mention.
After inquiring about the five people in the finance department of Ruibo Group, they learned from the police officers of the sub-bureau and the police station in the jurisdiction who came in advance that they also found nothing.
In the end, Ling Zhan decided to start the investigation by investigating the backgrounds of the five people in the finance department, such as family situation, financial situation, and usual performance in work and life.
Although the possibility that it was a hacker cannot be ruled out, which hacker would put so much effort into it for more than 50 million yuan? Therefore, Ling Zhan believes that the problem must still be within the Ruibo Group. Although I vaguely feel that I can't get rid of the five people in the finance department, I can't figure out how the suspect transferred the huge amount of 56.15 million yuan without anyone knowing.
Next, Ling Zhan and Qi Zhibin made a simple division of labor, Ling Zhan led the police of the sub-bureau and the criminal police of the city bureau who rushed to carry out an external investigation of the five people from the finance department. Qi Zhibin, who had a certain level of computer, carefully checked all the computers in the finance department, especially the one that was usually used for online transfers.
