    The core of anti-fraud measures is to make people understand fraud. Understand the methods they use to trick you out of your money, understand how they exploit your psychology to deceive you.

    From one-on-one scams that prey on individuals, packaged online personas to extort money, to one-to-many scams that utilize purchased personal information to make calls, taking advantage of people’s obedience to public authority to commit fraud. The latter has led to a variety of types, such as online chatting, online gambling… using technology to spoof numbers and impersonate or pretend to kidnap the owner of the number, even using AI-generated voices or videos to carry out scams.

    There is a plethora of techniques and methods.

    In China, most fraud prevention methods are focused on defense. Because the bank cards purchased by scammers and the response speed of the victims often lead the police to be unable to track them down. Even if they freeze accounts, it’s often of little use because the scammers are too quick. Actions to cut off cards have to some extent hindered the rampant market for buying cards, but they haven’t significantly curtailed fraud.

    It’s simple; there will always be people willing to take risks, and the methods employed by scammers are diverse and clever. “Unpreventable” aims to inform all viewers that fraud is everywhere and can hardly be defended against. Therefore, one must remain very vigilant in daily life.

    For example, do not answer calls from unfamiliar virtual numbers, do not trust claims of a safe account from public security agencies, and do not casually send verification codes, as those codes are likely the amount the scammers are requesting you to transfer. Additionally, there are those posing as financial institutions who tell you to close certain lending-related financial apps, warning that if you do not, you’ll become a blacklisted individual, etc.

    After reading this, Xu Zhizhi felt astounded by the sheer volume of knowledge presented. Furthermore, the content was split into two versions: one focusing on the male and female leads, and the other on the antagonists. Xu Zhizhi had just finished watching the male and female lead version, which essentially represented their principles. She had also viewed the antagonist version, which covered various psychological tricks used in scams, how to manipulate the mentality of others, and how to implement scam techniques.

    It was clear that the production team had put in serious effort; Xu Zhizhi even felt as though she was being educated. She believed this film was genuinely impressive, far better than the villainous second female character in ancient costume fantasy dramas. At that time, Xu Zhizhi had already prepared herself to switch paths, even if it meant being disliked. She never expected that others would play along with her; they had already tailored the roles for her.

    Now that she realized she had already attracted negative attention, why not go all out? What’s the difference between modern drama villains and ancient ones? They’re all villains; aren’t they all acting? She felt a budding ambition, wanting to obtain an award for Best Actress or something similar. But isn’t that possible now? After playing so many villain roles, why not choose one she liked to portray?

    In “Unpreventable,” the antagonist’s second female character is quite complex, a character who’s both pitiable and detestable. She comes from a broken family; her parents divorced when she was young. Both abandoned her, and she grew up with an old person who enjoyed abusing and berating her. This lack of love led her to a loveless upbringing, and after graduating high school at eighteen without getting into college, she began to wander society.
