Recently, a couple of "dual-police" newlyweds received widespread praise online for "responding to an emergency on their honeymoon." Zhu Shaodong is a police officer with the Development Zone Tie Mountain District Branch of Huangshi Public Security Bureau in Hubei Province, and Zhang Qin is a police officer with the Forest Police Brigade of Huangshi Public Security Bureau in Hubei Province. The couple officially got married earlier this year and only recently managed to find time for their honeymoon after a busy period.

On the evening of the date, while husband Zhu Shaodong and wife Zhang Qin were resting on the high-speed train, they heard a man in front of them talking on the phone. The man had his speaker on, and the couple, catching snippets of the conversation—"airplane ticket... Alipay... bank card?"—suddenly found themselves wide awake. Sensing their professional instincts, they suspected that the man was receiving a scam call. Just as the couple was considering whether to reveal their identities, the man suddenly stood up and moved to the next carriage, following the phone's instructions and operating his phone as he walked.

"Don't wait anymore! Absolutely cannot transfer the money away!" Seeing this, Zhu Shaodong quickly got up and chased after him. Upon inquiring with the uncle's wife, it was learned that the uncle received a call from someone claiming to be an airline customer service, stating that his flight was delayed and needed to be rescheduled, and that providing bank card, Alipay account, and other information would allow for a "convenient" online rescheduling and compensation process. "Do not transfer money, this is a scam call!" After understanding the situation, Zhu Shaodong was convinced that it was a scam call and immediately interrupted the uncle's conversation.

Hearing this, the uncle who was about to proceed with the next step was stunned. "Believe me! I'm a police officer!" Zhu Shaodong and his wife immediately revealed their identities and exposed the scam of impersonating customer service. Under the couple's earnest persuasion and patient explanation, the uncle quickly canceled a series of operations. The train police then also came to the uncle's seat to help answer questions. "The other party asked me to find a quiet, secluded place to facilitate teaching me the process of changing or refunding tickets. Thanks to you, otherwise I would still be in the dark and lose money!" Recalling the recent events, the uncle and his wife were still filled with lingering fear and expressed deep gratitude to Zhu Shaodong and Zhang Qin for their help.

Police remind: When booking tickets, use official channels and legitimate platforms to minimize information leakage. When informed of flight delays or cancellations, verify through multiple channels such as airline customer service phone numbers and official websites. For "ticket refunds and changes," always operate through the airline's official website or booking platform. Be cautious with verification codes and various passwords, do not disclose sensitive information to others, do not download meeting software at random, and do not share screen videos with strangers. After being posted online, netizens praised their actions and applauded this "dual-police" couple.
