Recently,
a flyer was distributed to the community regarding scams targeting the monolingual
Chinese. These scams involve telling the
victim that an evil spirit is following them.
They will ask the victim to bring valuables to pray over as an offering
to the spirit. They will return to the victim what is believed to be their valuables.
They will ask the victim not to look at their valuables for a day. When the victim later checks their valuables,
they find that the valuables were not returned by the suspects.
We urge all person(s) confronted with this scam to call 911 as this is a crime in progress. By contacting 911, you greatly increase the chance of catching the suspect(s) so that the police can make an arrest. If someone approaches you with this scam, decline their help, call 911 immediately and report it to the police. Be a good witness. Obtain a description of the suspect(s) and/or vehicles they are driving.
最近有傳單流傳到社區針對中國語的詐騙。這些騙局涉及一個邪惡的精神，他們告訴受害人邪惡會跟隨你。他們會問你攜帶你的貴重物品祭神及為您祈禱,事後他們將您的貴重物品歸還.然後還會告訴你在一天時間內不要看您的貴重物品。一天後,當您檢查您的貴重物品，你會發現，犯罪嫌疑人並沒有歸還您的貴重物品。
因為這是一個正在進行中的犯罪騙局。
我們呼籲所有的人,面對這種詐騙,
請撥打911,這將大大增加逮捕機會,你會是一個很好的證人和嘗試取得犯罪嫌疑人的描述，或他們所駕駛的車輛。
如果有人接近你,請記住這是一個騙局，請拒絕他們的幫助，
並立即撥打911向警方報案。

While en route, dispatch advised that there was a report of a burglary next door to the reportee’s address and that the calls were related. When he arrived on scene, the victim said he was at a construction site next door to his home when he noticed the suspect exiting his garage with his bike. When he asked the suspect what he was doing with his bike, the suspect told him, “the guy inside told me I could have it.” The suspect immediately let go of the bike and the victim thought he was going to run away. That’s when the homeowner grabbed the victim by his backpack strap in an attempt to prevent him from leaving before the police arrived. A struggle ensued with the homeowner falling to the ground and scraping his elbows and knees before the suspect escaped. Officer Padilla broadcast a description of the suspect. Officers Rueca and Clifford detained a suspect matching the description on the 1500 block of Dolores.
