Stop cleaning up "zombie fans" WeChat official: This is a scam and is extremely harmful

You may have hundreds or even thousands of WeChat friends, but there are only a dozen or so who you contact regularly. Most of them have become so-called “zombie friends”, and some have already deleted you as a friend without you knowing.

As a result, tools such as one-click cleaning of zombie fans appeared in WeChat groups, claiming to be able to find and delete friends. In response, the official WeChat team said: This is all fake! And it is extremely harmful!

The WeChat team said that the QR codes provided by these so-called fan-cleaning functions are actually the QR codes you use to log in to WeChat on PC. Once the code is scanned, the bad guys will log in to your WeChat, which is equivalent to handing over control of your personal WeChat.

The risks are as follows:

  • — Personal privacy is completely exposed, such as work, identity, contact information, friend relationships, financial information, etc., which may be exposed on the Internet and sold to bad people.
  • — Your personal relationship chain can be obtained, your identity can be forged to defraud relatives and friends of their money, obscene and pornographic information can be recommended to WeChat friends, and even WeChat payment funds may be stolen by bad people.
  • — If the account has a clear record of using plug-ins, it may result in the account being blocked, affecting normal use.
  • If someone sends you an ad about cleaning up “zombie fans,” complain immediately, citing the excuse of “fraud.”
