Recently, our embassy received reports from a number of overseas Chinese in the consular district that they received recorded calls showing "unknown numbers" on their mobile phones. The other party pretended to be a staff member of the Chinese Consulate General in Frankfurt, falsely claiming that the parties concerned "had a document waiting to be picked up in the embassy", and guided overseas Chinese to download overseas communication APPs, provide personal information and remit money to foreign bank accounts. Here, the Consulate General in Frankfurt solemnly reminds our compatriots in the consular district:
