Taiwan's Criminal Investigation Bureau (CIB) warned of a new and highly dangerous 'fake prosecutor/police' scam, combining call forwarding with financial theft. Scammers now instruct victims to enable call forwarding using "**21*", intercepting all incoming calls to bypass financial verification and then illegally using credit cards and securities accounts. A victim lost over NT$3.66 million in this new scam, prompting the CIB to urge public vigilance.
