The reporter casually contacted a customer service, and the other party asked the reporter for the ** name and store address he wanted to buy, and asked the reporter to take a picture of the payment link he made after arriving at the store.

For example,The original 23 yuan ice cream is only 161 yuan, originally 535 yuan ** only 26 yuan and so onWait.

According to reports, his team has a total of 8 people. Many customers will directly add their WeChat after trading on the platform for the first time. Lawyer reminds:
A clear breach of the agreement
Consumers are advised to use it with caution
"This card can only be used by the person. ”The reporter saw this reminder on the relevant instructions of the McDonald's McGinn membership card and the KFC god card. On the afternoon of December 14, the reporter called the official customer service of McDonald's, KFC, and Naixue, and the other party said that it was not recommended that customers buy their brand products on third-party platformsIf there is any problem with the transaction**, the customer cannot be held responsibleIt is recommended that customers purchase it on the official mini program or officially certified platform. Has anyone been deceived by placing an order on behalf of others?The reporter searched on a platform and found thatThere are not a few netizens who complain about "placing orders on behalf of others".。Someone said that he spent 15 yuan on a certain platform to shoot a bowl of noodles in a brand noodle restaurant, and the customer service asked netizens to take his membership code to the cashier to place an order, butThe front desk staff said that the membership code must be used in person。In desperation, the netizen asked the customer service to refund the money, but the other party refused to refund and refused to accept the netizen's information. In addition to buying food, some netizens placed orders to buy cosmetics on their behalf. Some people said that they paid 280 yuan on a platform to place an order for a certain brand of cosmetics, but they didn't expect the other party's customer service to say that the price of the goods would increase two days later, otherwise there would be no way to help them place an order on their behalf. In addition, some netizens placed orders to buy air tickets, but when they arrived at the airport, they found that there was no flight and seat information;I booked a hotel on behalf of the hotel, and found that I could not check in without booking information after arriving at the hotelIn the process of placing an order on behalf of the other party, he was guided to send "Sesame Credit" and "Huabei Screenshot" to the other partyIn the end, not only did he not get the discount, but he was cheated of money……In this regard, Chen Liang, a lawyer at Hubei Good Law Firm, said that the membership price or internal price of the merchant is formulated to give back to a certain level of old users, and generally has personal attributes, that is, only members are allowed to use it. Profiteering in this way is a clear violation of the corresponding agreement and involves civil liability for breach of contract;If the amount is large, it may also involve illegal operations。Consumers are advised to use the order placement service with cautionto avoid liability and loss.
