The tricks of pretending to be a real estate agent and adding WeChat can be as follows:
1. Repair and maintenance: Pretending to be a real estate agent saying that repair or maintenance work is needed, and asking residents to provide personal information or pay cost. In fact, properties are generally announced in advance and handled by professional maintenance personnel, and no personal information or charges are collected through WeChat or phone calls.
2. Decoration verification: Pretending to be a property manager, the property owner claimed that he wanted to conduct decoration verification and asked residents to provide information about the decoration workers to ensure safety. In actual circumstances, the property will carry out relevant activities at the owner's office or other designated locations and will not conduct such verification through WeChat.
3. Community activities: Impersonating property management personnel claiming to organize community activities and inviting residents to participate, and may require payment of fees or personal information. Properties usually promote community activities through announcements or other channels in advance and clarify the time, location and fees of the activities, rather than collecting information or charging fees through WeChat.
4. Property fee collection: Pretending to be a property manager, in the name of property management fee collection, residents are asked to provide their personal bank account number or pay fees. Property management will generally remind residents to pay property fees through formal channels (such as emails, text messages, paper bills, etc.) and provide specific payment methods and account numbers, instead of requiring residents to provide personal bank accounts through WeChat.
If you receive a similar WeChat message or encounter a similar situation, please be vigilant. If you have any questions, it is best to contact the property management office directly to verify the true situation. In addition, do not disclose personal information casually, especially sensitive information such as bank account numbers, to avoid property losses.
