Chapter 26: Deceiving and Being Deceived (II)

Here's how it happened......

The old man is in his sixties this year and lives in a small street in this urban area.

Thirty years ago, his husband died of illness, leaving him and a son who had just become sensible.

Although it was very hard, in order for the child to have a better growth environment, this weak woman made the strongest decision in her life...... No longer married.

It was difficult to raise children alone, and she worked harder, working during the day and at night. Although she is very tired, every day when she comes home and sees her children growing up healthily, she will feel that everything is worth it.

And it turns out that all this is indeed worth it.

The child is very sensible, and his grades are very good, just a few years ago, he finally graduated from school, and entered a fairly good company, and a year ago, he was promoted and went to a very good department.

The only thing that's a bit of a pity is that the company is a little far from home, but that's nothing for a mother who has given everything to her children.

She still works as a cashier in a fruit store two blocks away every day, living a hard life, ready to save some money so that she can help her son buy a house closer to the company in the future.

Until yesterday......

At first, yesterday was business as usual, the old man, already gray-haired, was getting dressed and getting ready to go out.

But suddenly, the phone rang at home.

The old man picked up the phone, and with a simple word, all her vigilance was removed.

"Mom......"

"Hey." The old man responded, "What's wrong with your throat, do you have a cold?" ”

"Well, something has been on fire lately." That's what the voice in the microphone said.

And this sentence easily raised the old man's heart, just like most mothers, even if they are rheumatism, they can't sleep every day when they are in pain, and they can endure it. But as long as the child has some minor injury, it will be anxious to turn all over the ground.

"What's wrong?!" The old man asked, trying to make his tone less flustered.

Next, the reason was also explained on the phone.

In fact, it is very simple, that is, her 'son' has just been transferred to a new department, and he is not very familiar with the work, and accidentally made a mistake in an account.

This directly led to a customer's money being reduced by 200,000.

But fortunately, the money is not gone, but it can't be transferred to the customer's account. With a little operation, you can make up for this mistake.

But the trouble is that this modification operation will take three days to execute. No way, that's what the bank's system says.

And this customer, at 9 a.m. on the same day, was about to withdraw money.

This is a bad thing, if the customer finds out that his money is missing, it must be a complaint, 200,000 is not a small amount, plus her son has just been transferred to a new department and made a mistake, if this is to blame, he was fired, but what should I do?

But fortunately, the old man's son immediately thought that as long as he used his own money to fill the gap before 9 o'clock, it would be fine.

And after three days, as long as the money that was originally going to be transferred to the customer is transferred to your own account, the matter is perfectly solved.

So the problem now is that he only has 30,000 yuan in deposit, and there is 170,000 left unsettled.

Therefore, he had to ask his mother for help.

......

In fact, hearing this, Zhou Yan had already guessed the follow-up.

The old man must have gone to the bank in a hurry to make up for his son's mistake.

Of course, the old man was not suspicious at all, before sending money, he made a lot of phone calls to his son, but strangely, his son's phone was turned off all the time.

Seeing that nine o'clock was approaching, my mother became more and more anxious...... In the end, it was finally the concern for his son that prevailed.

She sent the money!

At this point, yesterday's affair is over. The old man thought that he had finally helped his son.

But what I didn't expect was ......

This morning, another phone call came in.

"Mom! Did someone call you yesterday? He asked on the other end of the line.

"yes!" The moment the old man heard this question, he began to panic in his heart, could it be ...... Tricked yourself?

And in the next second, her conjecture was verified.

"Ahh I didn't even ask you for money! ”

The old man's brain buzzed.

This money is saved by her thrift for half her life, and even the pension after her husband's death is in it!

At this moment, the old man's whole body seemed to collapse.

But at this time, her son's words brought her mind back to life.

"Fortunately, the bank called me this morning and said that you had a sum of money that was transferred to an unfamiliar account, so I found out about it."

The old man's heart was extremely anxious at the moment, and he didn't pay attention to the loophole in his son's words: if there was a problem with his account, why did he call his son, wouldn't it be good to call him directly?

Anyway, she hurriedly asked, "Then what did you say?" ”

"What else can I say, of course, I told the bank to freeze the money quickly. So don't worry just yet, scammers can't get their money out. ”

Hearing this, the old man's heart finally relaxed.

However......

"However, the bank is only frozen, and the scammers can't take it out, and we can't take it out, after all, the bank doesn't know if we're making it up." The other side of the phone said again.

"What should I do then?" The old man became anxious again.

"Ah, don't worry, as long as we pay some deposit, the bank gave me a deposit account, as long as we pay one-fifth of the recovered money, that is, more than 30,000, you can withdraw the money."

Afterwards, the bank will deduct some handling fees from the deposit, which is estimated to be a few hundred yuan, and the matter will be solved. ”

When the old man heard this, she could accept it, after all, it was more than 100,000 yuan, in contrast, she subconsciously thought that 30,000 yuan was just a small amount.

That's it...... The old man remitted 30,000 yuan again.

So ———— a full 200,000!

Gone are the moments.
