Recently, a woman from Hefei, Anhui Province posted a message saying that a friend changed her nickname to "File Transfer Assistant" and also used the same avatar. She had been using it for 9 years, but she recently discovered that this was not an official account.
According to @武通video, the woman said that this friend was added for work reasons around 2015. Because too many people added her, many friends did not change their notes. The woman said that she had just started using WeChat at that time and was not familiar with the related functions. When she wanted to use "File Transfer Assistant", she directly searched for two, so she chose one of them and has been using it until now.
Because this account recently posted two Moments and was nicknamed "File Transfer Assistant", the woman noticed something was wrong.
The woman said that she usually sends various private information such as ID cards, photos, and videos to this "file transfer assistant", but this person has not reminded her in the past 9 years. The woman thinks that this person is spying on her friends. Circles and private messages. The woman
said she had contacted the WeChat official, but had not received a reply yet. After calling the police, the police had no better way to deal with it.
In addition, the woman said: "Currently, we have checked that my photos were not used for online loans. Baidu Image Search did not find my photos, which means they were not uploaded to the Internet, but I don't know if there are other illegal activities."

It is worth noting that in June 2023, some media reported that "WeChat name cannot be changed to File Transfer Assistant." After testing, netizens found that similar names also did not work, such as: File Transfer Assistant, Document Transfer Assistant, WeChat Transfer Assistant, etc., and the WeChat avatar accompanying the "File Transfer Assistant" cannot be changed. Therefore, some netizens questioned the woman's above-mentioned remarks.
In response to this, the woman replied that before WeChat revised the rules, users could use the same name and avatar, so she had never been able to tell the difference.

On the evening of February 27, the woman posted a message saying that the account involved had been blocked due to complaints, and “let this end here.”
html On the morning of the 28th, the woman responded again, saying, "The purpose of calling the police is not to hold people accountable, but to find him. If there is a loan or credit risk under my name in the future, of course I will find this person as soon as possible to see if he did it."However, many netizens also questioned, "How could it not be discovered for so long? It's just hype again." "It feels like a self-directed act." "Can't you tell if it's an official account if you click on the avatar? It's been 9 years. It would be too outrageous not to notice it.”
