According to Hongxing News, the individual involved in the incident of "Tsinghua graduates studying at University College London (UCL) being scammed" revealed that he was scammed for nearly 45 days. On the day he arrived in the UK and checked into his dormitory, he received a call from a number displayed as "Embassy," claiming that his phone number had sent a large number of harassment and fraud messages, and transferred him to so-called "cyber police." The caller accurately reported his personal information, requested him to download video software, and displayed materials such as police identification, arrest warrants, and confessions.Several "cyber police" bombarded him with information for more than three hours while he was still adjusting to the time difference and was physically and mentally exhausted, causing him to lose his judgment. Subsequently, the so-called "Interpol" led him to mistakenly believe he was assisting in an investigation into an international money laundering case and made him sign a so-called confidentiality document. For the first two weeks, they continued to strengthen control, requiring him to maintain a phone call 24 hours a day and turn on video for online monitoring, while also restricting his social interactions under the guise of investigation confidentiality.They ultimately induced him to purchase digital currency and transfer it to a designated account, and even made him deceive his family into transferring money for the so-called case, claiming it would be returned after the case was closed. He was also coerced into downloading foreign encrypted chat software to register an account for purchasing virtual currency. After returning to his home country, he discovered that during the period he was out of contact, the scammers had used his credit card to purchase tickets to other destinations. He reminded the public to pay more attention to anti-fraud campaigns, as scammers exploit time differences and information gaps to set traps.

In response to the sharp decline in U.S. stocks yesterday, most traders and analysts on Wall Street believe that the main reason is not a deterioration in fundamentals, but rather the liquidation by hedge funds. Noel Smith, Co-Chief Investment Officer of Kai Asset Management, stated: "It is extremely rare to see such a decline without significant market news. It smells like liquidation."In addition to the report last night by Bloomberg that multi-strategy hedge fund Walleye Capital will streamline its internal long-short equity business, the market generally expects several funds to be undergoing complete liquidation, or that the pods (independent investment teams) within multi-strategy funds are being forced to close positions or liquidate.According to a list released this morning by the well-known financial research community Special Situations, several hedge funds are facing difficulties, including Axebrook, Walleye, Engineers Gate, Lone Pine, Millennium internal pod, Verition pod, and Samlyn, mainly involving large redemptions, shutting down internal teams, or changing PMs.It is worth mentioning that during the major turbulence in the U.S. stock market in July this year, the AI hedge fund Situational Awareness also encountered a similar incident, with fund assets shrinking by 67%, and subsequently reached an emergency exit deal with Citadel, selling most of its publicly traded stock holdings at a discount.

According to Decrypt, Hollywood film companies and production companies are issuing guidelines prohibiting employees from using insider information to bet on prediction markets. The regulations prohibit employees from betting on events such as film company earnings reports, casting decisions, and release dates, and also prohibit sharing information with friends and family for them to place bets. At least one company has set up an anonymous hotline for employees to report colleagues suspected of betting.Penske Media, the parent company of The Hollywood Reporter, updated its employee handbook in recent weeks to prohibit betting on award nominations, casting decisions, production schedules, and release dates. Joshua Mitts, a law professor at Columbia University who studies prediction markets, stated that many employers now have to consider insider trading rules from an ethical perspective, but enforcing these rules can be difficult, as transactions based on blockchain may be "virtually untraceable" if insiders use mixers and hide their identities layer by layer.

Anthropic launched the personal finance feature Personal Finance for Claude on Thursday, available in beta form for paid subscribers of Claude Pro, Max, and Ultra in the United States. Users can link their bank and credit card accounts through Plaid, which handles the login process, allowing Claude to access financial data without account passwords. This feature can summarize expenses, identify duplicate charges or unusual fees, explain interest expenditures, and generate charts or billing calendars. Anthropic stated that access is read-only, and Claude cannot transfer, manage, or invest user funds; Personal Finance does not include ads or sponsored recommendations.Cryptocurrency investor Anthony Pompliano raised allegations after the feature's release. His product Silvia is positioned as a personal AI Chief Financial Officer, and he claimed that Anthropic employees have been in contact with Silvia engineers since April, ostensibly to understand the company's growth and computing power needs, but in reality to probe into the product's construction and reasons for its popularity. He also described a steak dinner allegedly attended by representatives of Anthropic, claiming someone informed the Silvia team that the meal was paid for by CEO Dario Amodei. Pompliano stated that his engineers refused to disclose sensitive information and claimed that someone at Anthropic warned his team several days in advance about the upcoming product release, noting that Silvia's use of its own models and hardware incurs computing costs approximately 97% lower than cutting-edge AI models.Anthropic is not the first general chatbot company to enter the personal finance space. OpenAI launched a similar bank account linking feature for ChatGPT in May, also providing read-only access through Plaid. Anthropic stated that Personal Finance is just the first step and is exploring collaborations with licensed professionals and regulated financial institutions; currently, this beta version is limited to users of the three paid Claude subscription plans in the United States.
