"Internet begging" refers to asking strangers through the Internet to ask others to donate money to achieve the special begging method they need. Internet begging can be roughly divided into three types.

Some of the beggars on the Internet pretend to be disabled and pitifully dressed up ... Some good and bad laborers pose as beggars with empty gloves, and some have annual income of as much as two to three hundred thousand, and some even become family-owned

Internet beggars are generally divided into three types, each with a different purpose and amount. Like "Please give me 1 yuan, let me run a well-off" is considered "direct", the general amount is not large, the amount is from 1 to 10 yuan; there are some reasons for writing, such as: pro-ill , Natural calamities, no money to eat, etc. This kind of online beggar is regarded as "writing style", the most popular type of online. People who use this method to beg often have some knowledge, good writing skills, and no specific requirements for the amount of money. I only say that you "dedicate love" by yourself; there are also some enthusiastic public welfare causes, such as begging for things that require money, such as disaster areas, which can be called "love type" and appear on more formal websites or
The originator of "Internet Beggars" is an American named Richard Schmid. He once made a website called "Give me a dollar" and has accumulated nearly $ 30,000 in revenue.
Regarding online begging, there is no clear legal definition in China, nor has it heard which department can regulate it. How much money "Internet beggars" can make through the Internet is difficult to obtain evidence, so it is also difficult to determine whether they have violated the law. Because the amount of items or money sent in general is not very large, even if they are found to be deceived, the other party is not well connected, so they often do not find the relevant department to file a case.
If online beggars use false information to deceive others' sympathy, solicit or deceive such property, it may constitute a crime. However, China has not heard of any begging on the Internet.
Due to the concealment of the network itself, relevant evidence cannot be saved and collected. Not only cannot the facts of defrauding money be found out, but even the identity of the parties may not be discernable. Even if there is fraud, it is difficult to hold the relevant personnel responsible. It is hoped that the majority of netizens will be able to discern authenticity to avoid being fooled.
Internet beggars have become increasingly popular, especially abroad. They have nothing to do all day, as long as the website is opened, they can sit at home and wait for the white flowers to make money. They don't have to spend a lot of marketing costs to build a brand. They only need to pin their hopes on the many idle roamers on the Internet. One dollar is more like a bull to the modern people. Number, but it is a considerable income for beggars.
In fact, the emergence of online begging is not accidental. When various types of B2C e-commerce website operations are difficult and unsustainable, online beggars with almost no cost have sprung up. Some of these beggars use profit exchange as the website's business model. Others simply use the art of the network and follow the traditional way to target humans' innate sympathy. Although the profit is limited, in any case, the website gang has now assembled into a group, becoming one of the few profitable B2C electronic trading sites outside the auction site.
It seems that the role of the Internet is not just as simple as communication and communication. In recent years, as the number of people using the Internet has continued to increase, the influence of the Internet has also gradually expanded. On the other hand, users only appear as a materialized symbol on the Internet, and everyone is very easy to hide their identity. These "Internet beggars" may be well-dressed gentlemen in real life, but the convenience of the Internet has given them the opportunity to reach out and ask for money for nothing. Beggars on the street have to worry about being sent to the shelter by the police, but these online beggars can sit around and count the money. When the high-tech double-edged sword gradually revealed its negative effects, the establishment of corresponding policies and management systems became a top priority.
