In order to develop new customers, merchants launch various activities to attract consumers. They are generally registered members, which is familiar to most parents. Now, they exchange their identity information for baby products such as milk powder and diapers. According to the sharing of treasure moms, most of these babies who exchange birth certificates for milk powder are big brands, such as He Fei, Junlebao, Abbott, Mead Johnson and so on. Online official website and offline milk powder stores have had such activities. Upload the original birth certificate online, and the offline maternal and child store requires the birth certificate to take photos or submit a copy.
Privacy security has always been a hot topic of social concern, and many people will hesitate to think about it when they hear that they want to provide personal information. Some parents are afraid that this activity of changing milk powder is unsafe, and some parents say that this is a routine for businesses. Seeing that everyone can get milk powder for free, the actual business is not profitable. If you ask the staff the purpose behind this practice, their words are basically the same, for example, this is an explanation of the brand; Verify identity; In order to prevent some precious mothers from participating in the activities again. But in fact, there are many hidden dangers in using birth certificates to participate in merchants' milk powder activities:
1, birth certificate is very important. It not only indicates the baby's name, date of birth, height and weight, but also records the parents' names, addresses, ID numbers and other important information. A piece of paper contains all kinds of important information. Gifts can only be taken once, and personal information can be used for life.
2. If the birth certificate is obtained by the merchant, it is possible to seek more benefits from the information on the birth certificate. For example, the age of the child can be calculated in the future. If the child reaches the stage of milk transfer, early education, school age, etc. Merchants may continue to advertise with the contact information left by Ma Bao, which is a common telephone harassment.
3, the baby's birth certificate has many functions: to prove the baby's birth status; Can prove the relationship between parents and children; Proof that the newborn has obtained medical and health care services according to law; The medical basis for the newborn to acquire nationality; To provide medical basis for the household registration authority to register the birth population; To provide evidence for other matters that must be effectively proved in the birth medical certificate. If the birth certificate is made public, it may be used by criminals. In a case, parents took their children to the household registration authority to register but were told that the birth certificate number had been registered, so it was not so simple to solve this complicated situation.
4. In the regular and regular milk powder products, milk powder safety accidents occasionally occur, and the safety of milk powder received in promotional activities is even more questioned. Before receiving or using milk powder, it is recommended that you check the outer packaging and information of milk powder. If conditions permit, it is also recommended to check the authenticity and make sure that there is no special abnormality before giving it to the baby. Parents can observe their children's situation while eating milk powder. If the child only refuses to respond to this milk powder, parents can stop feeding, and there is no need to force it; If the child is not interested in this milk, but has an uncomfortable reaction after eating it, he should be sent to the doctor for examination and treatment in time. As for the remaining milk powder, he can save it first and claim compensation from the merchant if necessary.
Because there are many risks in registering a birth certificate to participate in milk powder activities, some consumers have regarded this operation of merchants as a scam of routine information. Finally, I want to emphasize that you should not easily disclose your information to others, especially unofficial departments and institutions, and others should not give their birth certificates to others at will. If a friend or relative borrows a certificate of important relationship with his family, you need to ask clearly even if the relationship is familiar. If you find that your or your child's private information is being used privately, you must ask the police for help in time.
