Up to May 17, Ningbo police has cracked down 1,497 cases of economic crimes, securing the second ranking in China’s 32 major cities. Meanwhile, the police has arrested 1,682 criminal suspects, outnumbering the other cities in Zhejiang Province.

In the recent campaign, Ningbo police has received four congratulatory letters from Ministry of Public Security and Provincial Public Security Bureau. Liu Jinguo, Vice Minister of Public Security, highly praised the achievement Ningbo police has made.

In 2012, the Municipal Public Security Bureau has attached great importance to fighting economic crimes. Under the guiding principal of "clearing up more cases and major cases", the city launched a campaign to crack down economic crimes involving finance, taxation, trade, intellectual property and other fields. A large number of high-profile cases in Zhejiang province and even the whole nation have been closed.

To curb the rising credit card frauds in Ningbo, the local police joined local banks to study the characteristics and trends of economic crimes. The move helps them to collect more than 3,400 clues on credit card fraud, and places more than 840 cases, effectively reducing card crimes.

Major economic crimes are the top priority in this campaign. The city police stepped up efforts to crackdown major economic crimes, and cleared up a series of high-profile economic crimes, including a internet pyramid scheme fraud, the "11 • 15 " card fraud, the "3 • 26" fake VAT invoices case, an export tax refund case fraud, and the "11 • 11" counterfeit money case
