As more and more people use WeChat, WeChat has become an indispensable part of our lives and work. Recently, WeChat has introduced some new regulations. If you engage in the following 6 behaviors, you may face account ban.
1. New WeChat users added a large number of users in a short period of time
If a newly applied user adds a large number of friends in a short period of time, WeChat officials will most likely determine that this is a marketing account, or that this account is engaged in some services similar to WeChat business.
Many friends do not understand this account blocking rule. For example, friends who change their WeChat account will definitely add friends from their work and life circles back as soon as possible. But in fact, the main purpose of WeChat’s rules is to prevent criminals from using new users to conduct fraudulent activities, so it is reasonable to strengthen supervision.
2. Install plug-ins and simulators
We are all familiar with WeChat Mini Programs. Currently, WeChat Mini Programs have more than 10 million users. Many small companies are also joining mini programs, and mini programs are also one of Tencent's very important business lines.
We also play games in mini programs every day, such as Landlords, Jump, Snake, etc. Some users have found plug-ins and even modifiers for mini-games to get higher scores. Tencent now strictly supervises mini program plug-ins and modifiers. Once discovered, they also face the risk of being banned.
Why does WeChat supervise third-party plug-ins so strictly? Our important personal information, bank cards, money, etc. exist on WeChat. Tencent does this to protect users’ security and information. Secondly, it is also to make WeChat function better. WeChat mini-game itself is a relaxing thing. Why use third-party plug-ins to cheat?
3. Send inducement links
When we use WeChat daily, we often see some inexplicable links in Moments, groups and other places. These links are likely to have loopholes, and personal information will be leaked after clicking on the link. The WeChat backend will also increase controls on this and directly block users once discovered. This is also to protect the safety of users.
4. Frequent unusual red envelopes
The rise of WeChat payment has changed the way people pay. When WeChat red envelopes first started to be used, it set off a wave. WeChat red envelopes were originally a tool for entertainment or transactions between friends, but later they became a tool for making money in the hands of some unscrupulous individuals.
Some criminals will use WeChat to create a group, and then use WeChat red envelopes for gambling in the group. If a large amount of funds are transferred in such a short period of time, it is also considered a violation. Once the system discovers such behavior, it will severely crack down or directly block the WeChat group.
5. Frequently update your circle of friends
Starting around 2016, WeChat merchants began to enter the WeChat user circle of friends, and the constant swiping of the screen seriously affected the user experience. Therefore, if WeChat officials find that an account posts to Moments too frequently, they will handle it accordingly.
But Tencent does not restrict a certain person because he always posts to Moments, but because it affects others and is reported, WeChat may freeze or block this account. With the emergence of new regulations in 2022, the penalties for such situations may be more severe, such as direct account bans.
6. WeChat clone
Currently, many mobile phones on the domestic market have the WeChat clone function, but in fact this function is not officially recognized by WeChat. If the WeChat clone is used for other illegal purposes and is discovered by the platform, the account will be banned directly.
The above is all the content of the new regulations introduced by WeChat brought to you by the editor. I hope it can help everyone.
