The WeChat team hereby declares that they will not contact users through FaceTime, and any use of this method is considered impersonation and should not be answered. Please be wary of unfamiliar FaceTime calls and avoid being deceived.
The above cases are all counterfeit WeChat official accounts. Please do not easily believe them and be careful not to fall into fraudulent schemes. If the other party requests to add a private social account or share videos with various video conferencing software for assistance, be sure to decisively refuse. If the other party requests to transfer funds or make loans, do not pay attention to them.

Highly alert to FaceTime incoming calls!
The Shanghai Anti Fraud Center stated that some scammers impersonated customer service personnel from e-commerce, banks, or social media platforms to initiate FaceTime video calls with Apple phone users, using pre obtained personal information to fabricate various excuses for the victims to transfer funds; There are also scammers who guide the download of other conference software and obtain important information such as the victim's password and verification code through "screen sharing" to commit fraud.
