Receive all kinds of short messages to receive Alipay red packets, pay attention! Alipay said it hasn't been sent yet!

Receive all kinds of text messages to receive Alipay red envelopes? Attention, the official said it was not sent!

Since Alipay launched the activity of dividing up 654.38 billion red envelopes,

Every wechat group of mine is sending such messages.

Every day, in order to use a red envelope of 0.33 yuan, I spend it everywhere.

Be shocked by such a picture.

Screenshot shows

This Alipay user not only received a red envelope of 6.5438+0.378 million yuan.

There are 65438+ million+red envelopes on the road!

Another screenshot shows a 520,000 yuan red envelope.

Even those who failed the invitation were 654.38+ million+.

……

What kind of obscene operation is this?

If, like me, you receive a short message that starts with "Alipay" or "Alipay red envelope" and ask you to copy the short message and open Alipay, you can receive the highest 12 12 yuan cash-filled red envelopes once a day, then you may be one of the upcoming 65438+ million+red envelopes. ...

This is the message I received.

Most of these short messages require netizens to copy the information and then open the Alipay APP on the mobile phone to "receive the red envelope". Except "Alipay" and "Alipay Red Packet", there is no source information left, which may make some people have the illusion of receiving official short messages.

However, these short messages in the official name were not sent by Alipay!

They may just be that some people stole Alipay's wool in the name of Alipay, and at the same time harassed many irrelevant netizens, which made people extremely annoyed.

Alipay said that the activity of scanning code to receive red envelopes was mainly aimed at small businesses. When users pay online, merchants can recommend users to scan the code to receive red envelopes, and merchants will get corresponding rewards after users use them. Yuan, vice president of Ant Financial Services, said that in the red packets for making money, all the red packets received by users and the bounty received by merchants were borne by Alipay, so as to further popularize mobile payment among small businessmen.

In view of the current behavior of short messages harassing users, Alipay made it clear that all the mass short messages marked "Alipay" were not issued by Alipay officials.

The relevant person in charge explained, "The official will not send such short messages, mainly because some small businesses and individuals want to earn a reward through this activity. They use SMS marketing platform. The more users open text messages, the more rewards they get. "

12 18, Ant Financial's open platform announced that it is forbidden to use spam messages to destroy the user experience, saying:

"Recently, we found that some people promoted this function through spam messages, and even worse, they used Alipay as a signboard to spam messages, which destroyed the user's experience of participating in activities and affected Alipay's brand image. We would like to remind you that Alipay will never encourage such excessive promotion. If complaints and other adverse effects are caused by harassing users, we will take punishment measures that are not limited to stopping activities and canceling all rewards. If you use Alipay's signature without permission, you need to bear all the legal responsibilities arising from it. "

In addition, in the "making money red envelopes" activity rules, participants are also explicitly required to "avoid harassing behaviors such as spam messages and emails". If it "causes adverse effects, Alipay will take relevant measures until it is disqualified from participating in the activities".

According to reports, the official staff of Alipay issued the above announcement after receiving the screenshot of the netizen's news. The staff said that they had passed the technical investigation and blocked the account for the first time.

"We also saw this screenshot at the time. Of course, some customers complained on Weibo or through our 95 188 telephone. Because many users received this message in the name of Alipay, they asked if it was sent by us, because one was worried that it was a phishing message, and the other was that the experience was not good, thinking that it was something that our Alipay official did. "

The staff explained that some preventive and therapeutic measures have been taken:

First, when users receive text messages, complain to customer service, or customer service discovers similar behaviors through technical means, they will take a series of measures against this password, such as reducing their commissions or directly canceling their commissions.

Second, through a set of calculations every day, we can judge how many red envelopes this password has received today. If it is abnormal, we will cancel the reward or directly cancel the qualification to participate in the activity.

The other party said that Alipay has handled more than 800 such accounts at present, and I hope everyone will be cautious when seeing such short messages. As for whether the money obtained from these accounts will be cancelled, Alipay said that they will not do so at present.

There's nothing wrong with getting a discount for participating in business activities.

Some people may think that receiving a message like a red envelope.

I have nothing to lose myself.

But please think about it:

How did the sender get your mobile phone number?

Are merchants authorized to send similar short messages?

Do you think it is the official short message that reduces the security awareness?

Do you get upset when you receive similar harassing text messages every day?

What should I do if I accidentally encounter fraudulent text messages?

……

So, send it to friends and family.

It's no problem to pick it up at a trusted store.

Then I received a text message similar to "red envelopes falling from the sky"

Please be careful!

But someone really took a red envelope, and the previous red envelope was not small!
