一名內地漢涉假造貨幣、將假貨幣轉手及電腦偽造等罪被拘

2025年7月10日，本局接獲治安警察局通知在新口岸一渡假村酒店內商店發生懷疑信用卡可疑交易。本局資訊罪案調查處隨即派員到場將涉案內地男子帶返本局調查。

案情顯示，涉案男子於本年7月10日下午在新口岸一渡假村酒店內商店挑選一個價值4.9萬澳門元的名牌手袋，並使用信用卡支付，店員發現店方列印的交易單據上的發卡行與信用卡卡面上的資料不符，懷疑涉案男子使用假卡交易，因此取消交易，並報案求助。

經查，發現涉案男子於本年7月8日至10日期間使用至少5張假造的信用卡在本澳商戶刷卡購物至少8次，涉款約14.9萬澳門元。涉案男子供稱事成後可以獲得商品總價的10%作為報酬，但至今仍未收取任何報酬。本局人員在涉案男子身上及租住酒店房間搜獲以假卡購買的名牌手袋、球鞋、名酒、藥物、行李箱共16件，11張刷卡單據，以及1部手提電腦、1部手機、8張信用卡、3支電焊槍和2把鎅刀之製作假卡的工具，並在手機及電腦內檢獲大量信用卡資料、假證件相片及製造假卡的教學影片。

本局人員透過銀行的POS機對涉案的8張信用卡進行檢驗，經讀取信用卡晶片的資料，確認有4張信用卡晶片內的資料與卡面資料不符，以及有明顯焊接的痕跡，證實為假造信用卡；另外有4張信用卡晶片內的資料與卡面資料相符，均是涉案男子的資料，但其中2張信用卡的晶片有明顯焊接的痕跡，有理由相信曾經被焊接其他晶片進行犯案。

經本局深入調查，發現涉案男子早於本年6月27日以至少5張假卡在本澳商戶刷卡購物至少5次，涉及約2萬澳門元，隨即將商品帶離本澳。

因此，有強烈跡象顯示涉案男子以電焊槍、鎅刀及非法獲取的信用卡晶片焊接到失效的信用卡卡面上，再以有關假卡在本澳各商店進行刷卡消費交易，導致至少12間商店損失約17萬澳門元。

本局根據調查所得，以假造貨幣、將假貨幣轉手及電腦偽造等罪將涉案男子移送檢察院偵辦，並繼續追緝其餘在逃涉案人。

Mainland man arrested for offences including falsification of currency, passing on counterfeit currency and computer forgery

On 10th July 2025, the Judiciary Police was notified by the Public Security Police Force that a suspicious credit card transaction had taken place at a store in a resort-hotel in ZAPE. The I.T. Crimes Division of the Judiciary Police immediately dispatched personnel to the scene to take the involved mainland man in for investigation.

Case details revealed that the involved man had selected a MOP49,000 worth of branded handbag at a store in a resort-hotel in ZAPE on the afternoon of 10th July 2025, and paid for it with a credit card. The shop assistant noticed that the issuing bank on the transaction slip printed by the store did not match the information on the face of the credit card, hence suspected that the involved man had used a counterfeit card to make the transaction. As such, the shop assistant cancelled the transaction and reported to the police for assistance.

Investigation revealed that the involved man had made at least 8 card-swiped purchases at the local merchants using at least 5 counterfeit credit cards between 8th and 10th July 2025, involving approximately MOP149,000. The involved man confessed that he would be rewarded 10% of the total price of the merchandise upon completion of the transactions, but he has not yet received any rewards. The Judiciary Police personnel seized a total of 16 pieces of merchandise including branded handbags, sports shoes, luxury wines, medicines, suitcases purchased with counterfeit cards, 11 card-swiping slips, as well as a laptop computer, a mobile phone, 8 credit cards, and tools for making counterfeit cards including 3 soldering guns and 2 utility knives from the involved man and in his rented hotel guestroom. In addition, a large amount of credit card information, counterfeit identity document photos and tutorial videos on making counterfeit cards were found in his mobile phone and computer.

The Judiciary Police personnel carried out examination on the 8 involved credit cards through the POS machines of the banks. After reading the data of the credit card chips, it was confirmed that the data in the chips of 4 credit cards did not match that on the face of the credit cards, and there were obvious traces of soldering, hence establishing that those were counterfeit credit cards. Moreover, the data in the chips of the other 4 credit cards matched that on the face of the credit cards, all of which was the involved man’s data. However, the chips of 2 of these credit cards had obvious traces of soldering, which made it reasonable to believe that other chips had been soldered onto the credit cards to commit crimes.

In-depth investigation by the Judiciary Police revealed that the involved man had used at least 5 counterfeit cards to make at least 5 card-swiped purchases at local merchants as early as 27th June 2025, involving approximately MOP20,000, after which he promptly took the merchandise away from Macao.

As such, there were compelling indications that the involved man had used soldering guns, utility knives and illegally obtained credit card chips for chip soldering onto the face of invalid credit cards, and subsequently used the relevant counterfeit cards for card-swiped purchases at various stores in Macao, incurring a loss of approximately MOP170,000 to at least 12 stores.

Based on the investigative results, the Judiciary Police transferred the involved man to the Public Prosecutions Office for offences including falsification of currency, passing on counterfeit currency and computer forgery, while continuing to pursue the remaining involved individuals at large.

Homem da RPC detido por contrafacção de moeda, passagem de moeda falsa e falsificação informática

Em 10 de Julho de 2025, a PJ foi informada pelo CPSP de que tinha havido, numa loja sita num Resort do ZAPE, uma transacção duvidosa com cartão de crédito. Assim, A Divisão de Investigação de Crimes Informáticos enviou pessoal para o local e levou um homem da China continental para as instalações da PJ.

Consta que o homem, naquela tarde e na loja acima referida, escolheu uma bolsa de renome avaliada em 49 mil patacas e usou um cartão de crédito para efectuar o pagamento, no entanto, o funcionário descobriu que o banco emissor do cartão imprimido no talão era diferente do mostrado no cartão, suspeitando que o cartão usado poderia ser falso. Por isso, anulou a transacção e pediu a intervenção da polícia.

Na investigação, apurou-se que o homem, entre 8 e 10 de Julho, tinha usado pelo menos 5 cartões contrafeitos para fazer compras no mínimo em 8 ocasiões, num valor de cerca de 149 mil patacas. Ele disse que iria ser remunerado com 10% do valor dos artigos, mas até ao momento ainda não recebeu nenhum dinheiro. O nosso pessoal encontrou, na sua posse e no quarto de hotel que alugava, bolsas famosas, sapatilhas, vinho de renome, medicamentos e bagagens, num total de 16 objectos comprados com cartões falsos, 11 talões de pagamento, 1 computador portátil, 1 telemóvel, 8 cartões de crédito, 3 pistolas de soldar eléctricas e 2 facas de lâmina retrácteis, sendo estas utensílios para contrafazer cartões. Foram também apreendidos, no referido telemóvel e computador portátil, uma grande quantidade de dados de cartões, fotos de documentos falsos e vídeos com tutoriais de contrafacção.

O nosso pessoal examinou os 8 cartões com a máquina POS do banco e, após a leitura de dados que constam nos chips, verificou que 4 cartões tinham dados diferentes dos mostrados na sua superfície e os chips tinham vestígios de soldadura, confirmando que eram cartões contrafeitos. Os outros 4 cartões tinham dados do homem que eram idênticos ao que se podia ver e os chips também tinham fortes indícios de serem soldados, havendo assim razões para crer que tinham sido soldados a estes cartões para cometer o crime.

No seguimento da investigação, apurou-se que o homem, em 27 de Junho, tinha usado pelo menos 5 cartões falsos para fazer compras em 5 ocasiões diferentes em várias lojas de Macau, no valor de aproximadamente 20 mil patacas, de seguida levou os objectos e saiu de Macau.

Face ao exposto, houve fortes indícios de que o mesmo homem usou a pistola de soldar eléctrica e faca de lâmina retráctil para soldar os chips ilegalmente obtidos dos cartões caducados e com esses cartões falsificados efectuou transacções de pagamento nas lojas locais, o que causou a 12 lojas um prejuízo total de 170 mil patacas.

Com base no que foi apurado na investigação, o homem foi presente ao MP por contrafacção de moeda, passagem de moeda falsa e falsificação informática.

A PJ continua à procura de outros suspeitos em fuga.
