"T
he banks
a
re closed at such a late time, so go to the nearest ATM machine.
"
Those were the instructions Tae-hyuk received.
'They deliberately aimed for the evening.'
There was a higher probability of someone being alone at around the time when the banks were closed,
making for a perfect
situation
for voice phishing.
Tae-hyuk arrived at the ATM and waited for the call.
Not long afterwards, the person contacted
him
.
-Have you arrived at the ATM?
'
O
ops. I almost forgot t
o turn on
Voice Modulation.'
Tae-hyuk used the Demon Revealing Mirror to activate Voice Modulation.
[Voice Modulation has been used.]
-You can directly imitate the voice of Seo Ha-ran.
"Yes... I arrived."
-
I thought I just heard a man's voice.
Tae-hyuk made a mistake
, and
t
he skill had been released.
He manipulated the Demon Revealing Mirror at lightning speed to reactivate Voice Modulation
,
and
t
hen gave a trembling reply.
"I'm not quite sure what you're saying. I'm currently alone so why would a man's voice... Did some type of confusion happen?"
-
Indeed.
Then, please proceed to deposit the surgery
and
repair fee into the account that I
previously
mentioned.
15 million won in total.
'It is obvious that he wants to shout with joy righ
t now
.'
"Yes
,
I understand. Please wait for a moment."
Tae-hyuk went to the ATM and deliberately wasted time
in order
to make the opponent nervous,
rendering him unable to make any calm decisions
.
After five minutes, the voice phishing scammer spoke.
-
Are you done yet?
Tae-hyuk made a fuss
, as if
he was confused.
"I-It is strange. I have the money in the ac
count,
but I can't make a deposit. W-what is this?"
-Slow down and try again.
"Is the machine broken? I'll try another bank account."
Tae-hyuk put his bankbook on the ATM and sent the money.
Of course, it wasn't 15 million won.
The reaction was immediate.
-I've confirmed that 10,000 won has been deposited.
"Really? That's strange.
The m
oney was taken out of my living expenses account
,
s
o why can't I withdraw from my savings account?"
-...The money is in your savings account?
Then i
t is natural that you can't withdraw the money.
A savings account can't be withdrawn from unless it is expired or cancelled.
"Eh, t-then what should I do?"
-You'll have to go to the bank and cancel it.
"The bank isn't open right now!"
-......
'Isn't this enough to make it seem like I'm willing to pay
?
This way
, i
t will be hard for them to give up on my case.'
Tae-hyuk exclaimed like he was just reminded of something.
"Ah! There is a way to withdraw money without having to go to the bank and cancelling it!"
-
There is a way?
"Yes. My savings account is a little unusual
, as it is a
l
imited savings account.
It is a type of savings account
where you sign up to collect a certain amount of money before withdrawing it. I signed up to pay for my brothers' university tuition. As long as I have a certain amount of money in my bankbook, I won't have to go to the bank to cancel it."
-
There is such a thing?
"Yes. However, the interest rates are low so it isn't popular..."
-
Indeed.
'He believes me. Believes me! Of course, this is a lie.'
"At any rate, the limit is 20 million won, so I need three million won before I can withdraw all the money. But getting three million won all of a sudden..."
-
Cough.
'He is conflicted! Conflicted!'
The voice phishing scammer didn't realize that he himself was being
scamm
ed.
Tae-hyuk said the decisive words.
"... I will borrow it from a friend. However, I don't know if I can borrow three million won so suddenly..."
-P-please wait a moment.
The voice phishing scammer was confused.
If Tae-hyuk contacted a friend then he would have to explain the situation
to them, making it obvious to the friend
that it was a scam.
The scammer would then miss
a
valuable fish.
"Huh?"
-Let's do this instead.
I will lend you three million won
. Let me clarify -
you're saying that i
f you put three million won into the limited savings account, then you can withdraw it right away?"
"It seems
so
."
-
Cough!
Then please withdraw the money and send me 18 million won.
How about
that
?
"T-thank you! You are my brother's lifesaver!"
-
Then the account number is...
Tae-hyuk receiving the scammer
's
account number was like finding an oasis in the vast desert.
-Please wait.
Oh, don't hang up the phone.
He wanted to stop Tae-hyuk from calling anywhere else and asking around.
"Yes, I understand."
'I'm sorry but I have one more call to make.'
The phone connected to the scammer was Ha-ran's
, and
Tae-hyuk still had his own phone.
Tae-hyuk silenced the phone to stop the scammer from hearing his convers
ation
and called Kang-suk.
"Kang-suk hyung?"
-Ah, is this Ha-ran ssi?
"......"
'Whoops. I forgot to turn off the skill.'
-It is late so what is going on?
"Ah. Hyung, sorry. It is Tae-hyuk."
-
Ah.
Is that so?
It is late.
Go to sleep early.
Tae-hyuk laughed at the clear disappointment in Kang-suk's voice
, and proceeded to
describe the situation to
him
.
-
Hmm.
Let me know once you receive all the information.
They called Ha-ran ssi's handphone?
I will check the time that it was received
,
b
ut it will probably lead to a foreign country.
It is harder to arrest that way.
"Even if I have the chief bank account information?"
-
Hey.
How did you get something like that?
Normal ba
nk
accounts were points where the money was passed through
, while
a chief account was the central point where the money was actually gathered and origin
ated from
.
The voice phisher had to use the chief account to de
posit
money into Tae-hyuk's account.
"I will turn over as much information as possible
and
c
atch all the people that are in South Korea."
-
Yes.
This brat
,
I was just laying down watching TV, and now I have to work because of you.
"The special diligence will help when you get married."
Tae-hyuk ended the call with Kang-suk and used Voice Modulation again.
H
e then said to the phishing scammer.
"How is it?"
-
I have deposited
the three million
.
Please check it as quickly as possible.
"Yes
,
I understand."
Tae-hyuk went to the ATM and checked the bankbook.
There was a deposit for three million won.
Their account information was stamped as well
, meaning
t
he bank log would have their IP address.
Tae-hyuk ended the conversation with the voice phishing scammer and sent the information to Kang-suk.
He had earned himself three million won
, while
Kang-suk would be able to catch th
ose voice phishing scammers
in South Korea.
"I ate well."
And...
[Crime Skill: Voice Modulation has been acquired.]
-You can directly imitate the voice of the target.
-It is completely learnt.
'Nice
!'
He fully gained Voice Modulation
, meaning that he could now
use it without worrying about it ever disappearing.
'I can directly imitate the voice of someone else... Isn't this a good
skill
?'
He already came up with several useful ideas to use it.
Tae-hyuk
showed a warm smile
.
* * *
"I've finished, Noona."
"
Oh.
Tae-hyuk came."
"Huh? I thought you were watching a drama."
"No
,
I prepared some rice for us to eat together when you got back."
"Oh, really? I am hungry after working so hard."
"Did you study that hard?"
"... Wah, looks delicious."
"Tae-hyuk, don't
change the subject
.
Answer my question
."
"I will eat it well. Oh right, Noona."
"Huh?"
"Thank you.
