FBI mind attack: the super psychological tactics of the US federal police

Chapter 3 Strong Attack, Forced to Submit - FBI's Psychological Strategy of Strong Attack (2)
From the perspective of the FBI, when people encounter a stubborn opponent and all kinds of psychological attack strategies fail, they might as well try to change their tactics and use "unintentional language" to break through the opponent's psychological defense. The FBI believes that it is a good way to pretend to say something inadvertently or let the other party overhear you.When people confront an opponent, if the opponent perceives people's intentions or realizes that people are trying to change their attitude, the opponent will naturally have all kinds of doubts, and will naturally treat you with a defensive mentality, and these doubts and defenses are precisely It is the biggest obstacle for people to attack.On the contrary, if people inadvertently convey some kind of information to their opponents, the opponents will think that accepting this information will not make them fall into the other party's trap, and they will naturally accept the information.As long as the opponent accepts the information sent by people, then people have achieved the purpose of attacking the mind.Obviously, the process of Keith's confrontation with "The Tramp" is an example of this.

When Guise firmly believed that "the Belgian tramp in front of him is a German spy", the "tramp" was also clearly aware of Guise's intentions.Therefore, the "tramp" at this time is always on guard against Keith.When Geese asked him to count, the "vagrant" quickly realized that this was a trick of Geese, and a little carelessness would definitely allow Geese to hold strong evidence.Therefore, the "tramp" counted carefully in French, and the whole process was flawless.As a result, Gies changed his strategy and tried to use the method of "setting fire" to force the other party to tell the truth.However, the "vagrant" still saw through Guice's trick.Although the German shouts of "fire" outside echoed through the sky, the "tramp" still sat there firmly, and Guise failed again.

Guise, who lost for the second time, changed his strategy again.This time, Keith completely changed his thinking.During the conversation, Gies did not directly make some kind of request to the "vagrant", but pretended to inadvertently tell the other party "you are free and can leave here".However, it was this inadvertent remark that allowed Geese to see the result he expected: a relaxed smile appeared on the face of the "tramp", and it was this smile that allowed Geese to grasp the evidence that the other party was a German spy .Because Gies just told the other party "you can leave" in German, and the relaxed expression of the "tramp" shows that he understands German, which is tantamount to acquiescing to the fact that he is lying.

Therefore, the FBI reminds people that when attacking the hearts of others, you must not let the other party know your intentions.If you want to do this, you must maintain an objective attitude when dealing with your opponent.If the opponent knows your heart, then your heart attack will inevitably end in failure.If people repeatedly fail in attacking the opponent's psychology, they may temporarily hide their intentions, change their tactics, and attack the opponent's psychology again.Usually, doing this will get the results you want.

In addition, the FBI also reminds those who try to hack into the hearts of others not to try to persuade the other party at the beginning of the confrontation, because this will make the other party have a tighter defense mentality.

3. Learn to control the opponent and crack the opponent's defensive psychology

No matter when and where he is, everyone has a certain mental state and spiritual state or spiritual enjoyment.In fact, many people don't like others to share material enjoyment with them, but they are very happy to find like-minded people to share spiritual enjoyment with them.From this, the FBI discovered another method to crack the opponent's defensive psychology, that is, to control the opponent's psychology from the perspective of the opponent's psychology, and then break through the opponent's psychological defense.

In addition to the FBI, many mind-strikers know that if they want to close the distance between themselves and others and enter the other's heart, they must integrate into the other's psychological state.In the process of talking, people might as well temporarily abandon their psychology of trying to persuade the other party, and instead praise the other party's ideas, and then turn to attack the other party's heart when they get the other party's approval, so that the purpose of attacking the other party's heart can often be easily achieved .

During the Second World War, the United States, as a warring country, needed a group of young people to go to the front line, but in the process of conscription, the United States encountered an insoluble problem: a large number of American young people were accustomed to a comfortable life and were very worried about themselves. After reaching the front line, they will die in an instant.As a result, American youths have resisted the official call-up orders.Therefore, there are very few people who come to apply.Due to the inability to summon young soldiers to meet the needs of the United States for a while, the local administrator of Ohio was repeatedly reprimanded by the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.This made the chief executive feel very wronged: he tried his best to recruit recruits every time, but although he would speak dryly every time, those cowardly and stubborn young people were not willing to sign up for the army at all , which distressed the Chief Executive.When he was busy recruiting recruits, someone suggested to him: he might as well ask a well-known psychologist for help.

After being invited, and after careful preparation, the psychologist came to the conscription site with confidence.The young people in front of them were already prepared for all actions to persuade them, but at this moment they were still looking around in the audience, showing no signs of listening carefully.Facing such a group of rebellious young people, the psychologist did not directly persuade them to join the army like others, but was silent for about 5 minutes.Then, the psychologist began to speak in his thick baritone voice, but his first sentence was beyond the expectation of the chief executive: "Dear children, I cherish my life as much as you do." It was this sentence that attracted the attention of the young people. From the perspective of the young people, although there are many people who come to persuade them, there are not many people who can openly support their views and understand their decisions. Said that the psychologist in front of him was the first person to stand on the same side with them.

At this time, the young man saw that this man was quite scholarly and understood his decision very well, so he calmed down and continued to listen to his speech.Then, the psychologist said: "First of all, I want to express my own point of view. There is nothing wrong with loving life, because everyone has only one life. At the same time, I am very opposed to war and fear death just like you. If the government asks me to go to the front To participate in the war, I would refuse, or even escape, just like you. However, when we faced this call-up order from the United States, I had another kind of fluke mentality-if I enlisted in the army, the probability of going to the front line was only Half, because I might as well stay in the rear. Even if I get to the front, I'm only half likely to fight, because I might be the right-hand man of some officer. Then I'll stay somewhere safe. To take a step back, even if I did become a soldier in the front line, I would not worry, because the probability of my injury is still only half. If I were unlucky, I would not necessarily lose my life, because minor injuries would not kill me; if Unfortunately, I am seriously injured, and the doctor can help me escape from hell; if I die unfortunately, relatives and friends will be proud that they have a person who died for the country, and my parents can not only get a very considerable amount of pension and Insurance money, you can also get a highest medal that symbolizes the highest honor. Not only that, the neighbor's children will regard me as an idol and a hero, and I will come to heaven as 'a great warrior', maybe Meet the admired General Washington."

After listening to the psychologist's words, the young people who were originally very resistant to joining the army changed their previous psychology and expressed their willingness to join the army.Among these people, there may be some who wish to become heroes in the annals of history, or some whose family circumstances are not good. If they die, their family members will naturally receive a huge pension.In this way, the psychologist used simple words to overcome the inner weakness of the young people, and successfully persuaded the young people to join the army.

In fact, the reason why this psychologist can successfully persuade these young people is precisely because he is good at controlling the psychology of the other party and manipulating the emotions of others.In this process of attacking others' hearts, the psychologist found another way, first conforming to the other person's meaning, affirming the other person's ideas, and then expressing his own ideas in turn.And in this way, psychologists have achieved the purpose of breaking into the hearts of others.Different from other mind-attacking techniques, this method does not have sharp language or direct attack, but this method can enable you to successfully control the opponent's psychology, and then break the opponent's solid defensive psychology, and this is precisely this The advantage of this psychological attack strategy is: first identify the opponent's psychology, make the opponent's awareness of defense gradually relax, and then take the opportunity to express your own point of view.At this point, your defenseless opponent will consider your point carefully and accept it.So far, you have achieved the purpose of attacking the opponent's psychology.

In many years of dealing and fighting with opponents, there are many cases in which the American police have successfully used this method to control the opponent's heart.But many people who want to learn the FBI's psychological attack do not really pay attention to this method.Just like the psychologist above, he clearly knew the purpose of his speech - to successfully persuade young people who refused to join the army, so that they would willingly go to the front.However, the psychologist is not eager to attack the psychology of young people, but first admits their point of view-life is precious, and there is nothing wrong with the idea of ​​not giving up your life easily.Hearing such words, the young man immediately had a special feeling—it turned out that this person was different from others, and he did not come to persuade himself to join the army.At this time, the young people who refuse to join the army have the weakest sense of defense, and it is only then that the psychologist turns to attack the hearts of young people.

Looking back at the methods used by psychologists to attack other people's hearts, there are several stages: first dismantle the opponent's defensive psychology, and then grasp the psychological needs of young people's subconscious.Then, psychologists use their wisdom to introduce young people step by step into the network they have already set up.In the end, psychologists have completely mastered and controlled the psychology of young people, manipulated their emotions, and easily made young people voluntarily join the army.

It is undeniable that psychologists have a clever and wise way of controlling the psychology of young people.In fact, the FBI's psychological attack strategy is very similar to the psychologist's strategy of persuading young people. The FBI believes that in a psychological confrontation with an opponent, if you insist on your own views and propositions, and try to completely defeat the opponent as soon as possible to gain the upper hand, then your opponent will take strict precautions and is determined to fight you to the end. It will backfire.And when the FBI and other mind-strikers encounter this situation, they will change their thinking, first affirm and agree with the opponent's ideas, follow the opponent's intentions, and then make the opponent fall into the trap you set inadvertently.

In the eyes of many people, common interests, hobbies and ideas are the best link between two people.If two people have similar views, thinking and hobbies, then the relationship between the two people will naturally be very close.Therefore, if you want to attack the other person's heart, you might as well start with the other person's psychological state first.During this period, you have to let the other person know that you share the same views and opinions as him.In decades of confrontation with opponents, the American police have used this method to successfully break through the opponent's psychological defenses, and then freely control the opponent's emotions and psychology.Next, is the right time to launch a strong attack on the opponent.In this way, opponents will unknowingly follow the wishes of the police.In this way, the American police won the battle of the mind.

The FBI's psychological attack strategy tells people that if you want to win the psychological attack, you must close the distance between yourself and the opponent, otherwise the opponent will be full of hostility when facing you.In this state, his vigilance will naturally be extremely strong.If people attack at this time, the opponent will inevitably guess your intention, so it is difficult for people to successfully enter the heart of others, and those who are good at attacking minds know that starting with the same or similar views, feelings or attitudes will make people feel more vulnerable. Get into your opponent's mind faster.However, unlike the FBI, many people don't know the tricks of mastering their opponents.Therefore, when confronting opponents, these people always show people with serious faces and sharp words, but the effect of this attack method is not very satisfactory. The reason is that sharp language will arouse the disgust of many people, thus As a result, these people will not accept this method.At this time, we might as well consider the problem from the standpoint of the other party, first accept the other party's point of view, make the other party accept ourselves, and then skillfully use wisdom and language to break through the other party's psychological defense line, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the other party's psychology.

It can be seen that strong attack has its advantages, but blindly strong attack may not bring satisfactory results to oneself.In other words, sharp language does not enable people to successfully master each other's psychology.In fact, the way to control the opponent's psychology is not difficult. It is to start with the opponent's psychology, admit what the opponent thinks, and then quietly change the topic, convey your point of view to the opponent, completely disintegrate the opponent's psychological defense line, and change your position willingly. You stand on the same front, so you can successfully control the other party's psychology.

4. Standing up to build momentum and control skills——FBI completely occupies other people's minds
In the process of confronting criminals for many years, the reason why the FBI has been able to solve the case repeatedly is mainly because the FBI has summed up a set of effective strategies for attacking the mind. The FBI is well aware of who its opponents are-these opponents have been planning for a long time, cunning and sophisticated, and will do whatever it takes to ensure that their plans are foolproof and able to evade police pursuit.The task of the FBI is to find conclusive evidence, and at the same time use a set of effective psychological tactics to force the other party to have nowhere to go, and then admit their crimes.In this psychological attack strategy, building up power is an effective method.

Many mind-strikers know that if they want to gain an advantage in a confrontation with an opponent and let the opponent act according to their wishes, they must establish their own power at the right time.Let the opponent think that you have pointed him in the right direction. If the opponent walks in the direction you pointed out, it will definitely make yourself safer.At this time, you have occupied a favorable position in the heart attack, which also means that you are not far from the dawn of victory.

During the years of FBI cracking cases, they used this method to successfully penetrate into the hearts of criminal suspects, thus cracking many cases.

In the second half of 1982, a series of strange cases occurred in the Chicago area: some residents died suddenly and inexplicably.After receiving the report, the Chicago police quickly launched an investigation into the case and quickly found out the cause of death of the victims—they took hydroxyphenylethylamine capsules without exception. If it dissolves in the human body, the person will die immediately.And it is clear that this case was intentionally poisoned.

When the police received relevant information, they immediately launched an investigation into the matter.The special agent in charge in Chicago immediately organized a special task force, and later the case became the case code-named "Capsule Murder" in the FBI.
