Is it the reason too easy to sell on WeChat?

 

Unlike Tmall, Taobao or JD, opening a shop there could be up to 100,000 RMB, shopkeepers are required to provide enough licenses to pass the verification. Then they can sell products on these platforms, there are still constant operating fees come after.

 

Compared with these well~known platforms, the threshold of starting up a business on WeChat is low, and eveyone can have it. We posted an article about how to run a business on WeChat How Do Foreigners Sell And Earn A Fortune On WeChat? 

Some people see the value and benefit from the WeChat business, but running a WeChat business may cause problems if sellers walk over the line.

 

Black-market bots for sale on WeChat!

WeChat, quietly let millions of accounts develop AI-powered bots of their own, keeping a wary eye out for abuse, the recent storm is to shut down these accounts.

 

Unsanctioned bots run amok on the social network, often tactlessly spamming groups or artificially inflating a brand's likes and follows. The Chinese tech firm clamped down on thousands of accounts, denouncing the use of external software to alter WeChat.

Unlike WeChat's “official” accounts, designed for commerce and media, these rogue bots hijack personal accounts. They can be purchased on Taobao, the country's most popular online marketplace, for a couple of dollars or less. Some accounts are even “farmed” before they're sold, which means they already have friends and have logged a certain amount of human~like activity, such as posting on Moments, WeChat’s newsfeed-like feature.

 

According to Li Jiarui, who is familiar with this industry, if one grows a WeChat account to 3,000 to 5,000 friends, one advertisement on the Moments could be worth between [US$14 to US$140], it depends on the quality of your account.

Account farming is driven by the needs of marketing and advertising agencies, or “micro shops” run through personal WeChat accounts. Unlike brand accounts, personal accounts are easier to register and can participate in group chats. These shopkeepers often use their Moments to advertise all kinds of products, from imported baby powder to luxury handbags.
