Net police launch a heavy blow and destroy a network water army organization, resulting in the arrest of 15 people.

Recently, the public security and internet security departments successfully cracked a case of extortion and blackmail by a "internet water army", dismantling one "internet water army" group, arresting 15 criminal suspects, and confiscating more than 20 mobile phones, computers, and other related devices used in the crime. This case achieved a comprehensive crackdown on the criminal activities of extortion and blackmail by "internet water armies" targeting enterprises. Upon investigation, it was found that since 2022, Chen and Wei, along with others, gathered a group of idle individuals from society, impersonated as news media workers, and used online exposure or other means to threaten enterprises into giving them money. They took advantage of the psychology of "better to have fewer troubles than more", targeting businesses and operators, seriously affecting the normal business order and social order of enterprises. Currently, Chen, Wei, and other relevant individuals have been subjected to criminal coercive measures in accordance with the law, and the case is still under further investigation.
