What about the citizens who have never used bicycle sharing but received a successful registration message?

Bike-sharing is easy to get and use, and it is cheap and convenient to return the car, which has solved the problem of many citizens traveling in the last mile. However, with the rapid promotion of bicycle sharing, fake QR codes are posted on cars instead of real QR codes, and cheating money with fake ones has become a hot news topic.

The reporter saw from the mobile phone of this citizen who has never been exposed to bicycle sharing that the text message reads: "You have registered OFO bicycle sharing, and you can enjoy free car use for two days on weekends after completing the certification today! Now certification also comes with a link, which is actually the registration page of OFO bicycle.

Reporter: Have you received any information about bike sharing registration and certification recently?

Wang: I received it.

Ms. Zhang: I received it.

Reporter: Have you registered for this bike sharing before?

Mr. Wang: No, after receiving the text message, was the first reaction fraud?

Ms. Zhang: No, I thought it might be a fake link, and then I deleted this short message directly.

Then, why do these citizens who claim to have never been exposed to OFO bicycle sharing receive SMS reminders that "you have registered for OFO bicycle sharing"? The reporter used the mobile phone numbers of these citizens to call the customer service hotline shared by OFO bicycles. The customer service said, "It really shows that you are not registered. It could be a scam message. There is no registration at all, not even a name and mobile phone number. "

If, as the bike-sharing hotline said, these unused bike-sharing citizens received a fraudulent short message, why are the contents and signals of the short message exactly the same as those received by registered users? And the links all point to the registration interface of ofo bicycle sharing? OFO bicycle sharing customer service hotline: "Well, the number you provided me is indeed ours. With this activity, today is indeed a free ride. "

The customer service staff said that the news was sent by their company, but how did the mobile phone numbers of citizens who had never been exposed to bicycle sharing get into the company's mass sending system? Since I have never used it, I tell you that I have registered. Clicking on the link will let you register. Why? "ofo bicycle sharing" customer service staff: "Because a customer just responded to this question, it may be that when someone else registered, the mobile phone number was filled in incorrectly, or there were some special circumstances."

However, the reporter tested that if you register a new account of ofo, you should send a verification code after entering your mobile phone number, instead of clicking on the link that invites you to register. In this regard, many people in the interview believe that the practice of ofo bicycle sharing is a deceptive advertisement aimed at attracting new users. So are similar advertisements illegal? Lawyer Zhou Jiade, a lawyer in Beijing, said: "Article 43 of the Advertising Law clearly stipulates that no unit or individual may send advertisements to the parties without their consent or request. Article 29 of the Consumer Protection Law also clearly stipulates that commercial information shall not be sent to consumers without their consent or request. This situation can be reported to the administrative department for industry and commerce by calling 123 15. "

The reporter searched Weibo for similar information: A Weibo user from Shanghai said, "I have never used bike sharing, and I want to know where OFO sent us messages. Just send one, keep sending it. A Weibo user in Guangzhou questioned OFO bike-sharing: "Has my personal information been leaked? I have never used OFO, why do I receive these messages? Weibo, a citizen of Chengdu, Sichuan, complained about OFO's bike sharing. He said, "Is there something wrong with the system? Don't use your things, send me harassing messages, and call me back if I unsubscribe. What is your company doing? Liar! "This user also forwarded it to 1232 1" Network Bad and Spam Reporting Acceptance Center ",indicating that he was still harassed after sending the unsubscribe information. What should I do? I'm in a hurry. I'm waiting online. I hope I won't harass more people.
