《中国经营报》7月30日提示称,有不法分子冒用该报名义联系企业,声称掌握所谓负面调查材料,并以不公开相关内容为条件索要比特币。报社表示,这些邮件并非其授权发出,已被视为涉嫌诈骗行为。

邮件通过 Proton Mail 发出

根据报社说法,相关邮件来自 Proton Mail 地址。发件人自称代表《中国经营报》,并称卧底调查已获取对企业不利的信息,要求企业转入比特币,否则将公开所谓调查结果。

报社未公布完整邮件内容,也未披露被联系企业名单。截至7月30日,公开信息中也没有嫌疑人身份、警方立案进展或刑事指控细节。

报社称正收集证据

《中国经营报》表示,这些信息不属于其正常采访或经营活动,正持续固定证据,并保留追究相关人员民事及刑事责任的权利。报社发布提示的目的,是帮助企业区分正常采访问询与以加密货币换取“撤稿”或“压稿”的异常要求。

从已披露内容看,报社没有公开比特币钱包地址、索要金额、交易哈希或付款期限,也未说明是否已有企业转账。因此,外部研究人员目前无法通过链上数据核查这起事件是否已发生实际付款。

冒充媒体勒索并非新手法

这类做法通常结合两种常见诈骗方式:一是冒充知名机构提高可信度,二是以负面曝光威胁受害方付款。报社指出,企业如果不熟悉其正式联络流程,更容易误信此类邮件。

中国监管部门此前也曾披露类似案件。公开案例显示,2025年有3人因冒充媒体、借所谓环保报道向16家企业勒索而被定罪。报道还提到,美国也出现过结合企业入侵、身份冒充与加密勒索的案件,Coinbase此前亦曾拒绝一笔 2000 万美元勒索要求。

补充信息:目前报社未披露是否已联系 Proton 或警方,也未说明是否有企业完成转账。
