AI-generated summary

The author has noticed that domestic apps in China are primarily focused on providing loans. They frequently receive calls from these apps offering loans. To identify which platform is leaking their information, the author suggests using a specific name for each platform when registering accounts, without using their real name. For example, they suggest using "李讨宝" for Taobao, "刘晶东" for JD, and "赵迪迪" for Didi. This way, when they receive a loan call addressed to "赵迪迪," they will know that Didi is the one selling their information and can file a complaint with the platform. However, this method may only be effective for e-commerce platforms. The author also mentions that personal information such as ID cards and phone numbers are no longer considered private, and if telecom operators or banks leak this information, there is no solution.

Discover that the end point of domestic apps is to provide loans.

Every now and then, they call me, a poor person, to offer loans.

To find out where the information leak is coming from, there is a method: when registering account names on different platforms, if possible, try to use a specific name to mark the platform without using real names.

For example, change the name on Taobao and the recipient's name to "Li Tao Bao," change it to "Liu Jing Dong" on JD.com, and change it to "Zhao Di Di" on Didi.

This way, when a loan call comes in and they call me "Zhao Di Di," I know it's Didi that betrayed me.

Then I can directly complain to the platform.

This is only a possible effective method, at least for e-commerce platforms, it's worth a try.

ID cards and phone numbers are no longer personal privacy, if the telecom operators or banks leak information, there is nothing we can do.
