< p > November 27, 2013, Zhang Jian, who was engaged in the work of the electricity supplier, was detained by the West Lake branch of Hangzhou Public Security Bureau for detention in custody of Zhenhua Road in Hangzhou, three "Dun Town, Hangzhou" because he was suspected of illegally obtaining the crime of citizen href= http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp < > /a > crime.

< /p >

< p > Zhang Jian's incident, brought out by Li Ming.

Li Ming is a former technician of Alipay a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" > Alibaba < /a > Alipay. The company used its work to download Alipay users' data in many times in the background of the company. Its content is over 20G.

Li Minghuo and his two associates then sold the user information to the electricity supplier company and data company several times.

< /p >

< p > by the Ministry of justice of the Alibaba, it has been downloaded "a href=" http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp "> Alipay < /a > user data or done for Li Ming and reported in Hangzhou.

Hangzhou police take the city Cui yuan police station as the main body, and control the four people.

The suspect, Zhang Jian, was the first "client" of Li Ming gang. He bought 30 thousand Alipay user information from Li Mingchu at a cost of 500 yuan.

< /p >

< p > according to Li Ming's statement, the largest buyer of Alipay users is "a href=" http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp "> clothing" /a "category of electronic business company fan Ke pin pin, which spent a lot of money from the Li Ming group to purchase Alipay user data 10 million.

However, a person who had been contacted by Li Ming after bail pending trial said that "fan Ke Cheng pin" is only a statement by Li Ming, which does not exclude the possibility of fraud. < a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" > "/a" has no actual purchase, and it should be determined by the police.

On the evening of January 2nd, VP, a vice president, told the Economic Observer newspaper: "I am not sure about this. I have never heard of it."

Jiao Hongyu, director of corporate public relations, said, "if the police need, we will cooperate actively."

< /p >

P, Alipay, is reluctant to make more comments while acknowledging that there is indeed a case of internal staff stealing and selling user information.

< /p >

< p > as of press release, the case is still being detected. Chen Wei, an informed police officer in charge of criminal cases at Chui yuan police station, said it was not easy to disclose the progress of the case.

At present, Zhang Jian and Li Ming are on bail pending trial.

On the evening of January 2nd, the reporter called Zhang Jian phone, which indicated that he would not mention the matter before the police formally processed the plan.

< /p >

< p > < strong > "inside ghost" steal sell < /strong > < /p >.

< p > 2010, Zhang Jian worked in a company in Hangzhou and was responsible for brand operation and promotion.

Due to working relationship, Li Ming met former Alipay employee, and the two sides began to have "business" cooperation.

In one cooperation, Li Ming owed a reward of 500 yuan for Zhang Jian.

< /p >

< p > in the end, the 500 yuan did not actually pay. After consultations between the two sides, Li Ming provided Zhang Jian with 30 thousand target consumers' information as "rush accounts".

That is to say, at the cost of "500 yuan", Zhang Jianjin bought 30 thousand Alipay user information from Li Mingchu.

< /p >

< p > Zhang Jian's purchase of Alipay user data, including the real names of citizens, mobile phones, e-mail, home address, consumption records, etc., from these precise positioning of user information, Zhang Jian mastered the specific information of target consumer groups.

< /p >

< p > Zhang Jian is Li Ming's first "customer".

When Li Ming was a Alipay technician, he used his work to download user information from Alipay backstage many times.

According to its confession to the police, its downloading information is larger than 20G.

< /p >

P > P > Li Ming downloads Alipay user information, and together with the IT industry outside the Alibaba system, the user data are analyzed, refined, and sold to the target customers.

According to one of the people who had been in contact with Li Ming after being bail out, the Li Ming team told the police that Alipay user information was sold to multiple e-commerce companies and data companies by its team and gained economic benefits. The biggest buyer was van customer, and the company had once bought 10 million Alipay user information.

< /p >

In the evening of January 2nd, P, a vice president of VIC, told the Economic Observer (micro-blog) that he was not clear about the case and had never heard of it.

Jiao Hongyu, director of public relations, said she had not heard of it. After consulting the company's legal department, she told the Economic Observer newspaper: "we have not received any enquiries from the police for the time being. If the police are in need, we will actively cooperate with them."

< /p >

< p > the person close to Li Ming stressed that "the case is still in the investigation stage, and the suspect does not rule out the possibility of confession.

Whether or not fan Ke Cheng has actually bought Alipay users' information to the Li Ming team will ultimately need the police's confirmation. Whether the police's detection target includes any customer service is also unknown.

For the time being, it is not arbitrary to believe that fans are buying Alipay users' information.

< /p >

< p > Zhang Jian's case was sent out by Li Ming, while Li Ming was handed over to the police by the Alibaba's < a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp >" integrity department < /a >.

The Department is made up of lawyers, certified public accountants and retired police officers to investigate whether there is any violation of company discipline within the Alibaba.

In fact, the Alibaba has never been appeased in dealing with "internal demons".

At the beginning of 2012, Alibaba's Ministry of integrity found that there was an abnormal paction between the designated operator of Juhuasuan's group buying business and the "love marriage". The company only participated in Juhuasuan group buying activities more than 200 times on the line for only 8 months.

The survey found that the company was actually co founded by an Ali cloud employee, a a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp", a Taobao /a net employee and a Juhuasuan employee, so its group buying activities were deliberately taken care of by their own people.

The mistakes of several "ghost" were recorded in the account of Juhuasuan general manager Yan Limin, who was dismissed by the Alibaba.

< /p >

Earlier than 2011, < a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" > Ma Yun < /a > aimed at company CEO Wei Zhe's resignation and resignation, in Alibaba's internal mail, she said: "no action can be tolerated for" acts that violate the principles of commercial integrity and the bottom line of company values "in P.

< /p >

< p > although it is a case reported by Alibaba itself, most people in the Alibaba system have never heard of the case of Li Ming.

A manager inside Alipay admitted that Lee explicitly sold the user information, but stressed that the case had been in existence for several years, and the user information had not been widely spread to the Internet.

< /p >

< p > an insider familiar with the Alibaba said that in the company of Alibaba, employees are different in rank and different in authority. Why did Li Ming download such data so much that he didn't monitor it for the first time, until 3 years later, he was discovered and reported by the company.

"We have to admit that we have some problems in management."

< /p >

< p > > Chen Liang, partner and lawyer of Jin Tian Cheng law firm, thinks Alipay employees < a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" > steal user information < /a >, on the one hand, the company fails to monitor and manage loopholes, on the other hand, it is very "terror".

"First is the personal property safety of citizens, followed by the privacy and safety of citizens, and the personal safety of citizens.

There are many special groups in society, such as rights lawyers and investigative journalists. They will inevitably do something to offend people because of their work needs. If their personal privacy, such as family addresses, is known by the enemies of the rivers and lakes, their personal safety will be hard to be guaranteed; and some less professional occupations, such as girls at night clubs, if their personal information is mastered by people with ulterior motives, it is possible to make some threats that they dare not report. For example, some units will purchase large quantities of gifts from Taobao on account of commercial needs. If their movements are informed by competitors, it is very likely that they will cause unnecessary trouble.

In addition, Alipay's user information is different from other users' registration information, including the real name, ID card number, mobile phone, address, Alipay balance, shopping habits, etc., with this information, it is possible to decipher the personal password of the Internet. After all, many netizens, especially the middle and old age network names, are the birthdays of their Internet passwords.

So this is a terrible thing.

< /p >

< p > as of press release, the case is still under investigation, and the Chui yuan police station that specifically operates the case has not disclosed the progress of the case, but Zhang Jian, Li Ming and others have been released on bail pending trial.

Those close to Li Ming said, "for Zhang Jian, the amount involved is only 500 yuan, and the circumstances are not serious."

< /p >

< p > for a case of Alipay users stealing information from users, a network police in Jiangsu also expressed frustration.

"As a police officer, such cases can only rely on the crime of illegally obtaining personal information of citizens, but the impact of this crime is hard to identify.

It is difficult to quantify the loss of citizens' personal information and how much loss it has caused to citizens.

In the determination of the criminal suspect's crime, the police generally decide whether the circumstances are serious or not based on the number of suspects trafficking information.

< /p >

< p > January 2nd night, Zhang Jian, who was released on bail pending trial, told the newspaper that he would not refer to the matter before the police had formally processed his opinion.

< /p >

< p > < strong > concealed industry chain < /strong > /p >

Zhang Jian, P, a senior electrical worker engaged in similar brand promotion and operation of Xu Wei, has also represented several underwear brand sales on Taobao.

In his view, "do a href=" http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp "> electricity supplier < /a > is doing data!" < /p >

< p > according to Xu Wei, with the development of electric business, precise positioning of customers is more and more important.

Most people who do business, especially those who do a certain scale, will purchase data.

These business people will choose some paid "intelligence tools", such as the "intelligence link" developed by a company in Shanghai.

The data software represented by information technology mainly carries out data analysis on Taobao stores through search engine and database technology, such as what kinds of key words have been made by competitors, what keywords are used, how effective they are, and industry analysis, shop analysis, baby analysis, buyer search, etc.

By using this kind of software, the employees of electronic business can get data from competitors, so as to serve as a reference for adjusting marketing strategies and product positioning.

"I use the intelligence, the annual fee is 50 thousand yuan a year, data for the electricity supplier, is too important."

Xu Wei said that these paid data software is important, but still can not match consumers' personal information.

"For example, for example, I sell underwear for women. If I have a database on my hands, I know how many women consumers like to buy underwear online, how often they go shopping, how the price range is, how they consume, what brand they like, and so on. If I know this information, I can extract more information to adjust the store strategy.

If I know their mobile phone numbers, e-mail address, home address and so on, I can even send text messages, e-mail, direct mail DM to them, they are all potential consumers of fine marketing! "{page_break} < /p >

< p > Xu Wei said, as an electronic commerce practitioner, what he needs most is such refined data, but he is suffering from no way, and can only pay for the data analysis software such as intelligence and data.

< /p >

< p > the people close to Li Ming said that the data that Alipay had downloaded from Alipay before was more than 20G. As long as some software was entered into the database and then analyzed professionally, basically all the consumer habits of Alipay and Taobao users could be seen.

"These user information can bring money and can be realized."

< /p >

< p > however, the above Alipay insiders said, "we do not know what the more than 20 G is specifically, or whether there is a 20G so big that we do not know."

The Alipay personage also said that the data stolen by the Li Ming team, which was used for personal profit, has not yet been pmitted to the Internet, and it does not constitute a public hazard to the society.

< /p >

< p > although the personal information of private citizens such as Li Ming has not been spread to the public network in large area, the information of a group of fast hotel chains represented by JinJiang Inn was released in October this year. Even private citizens' information such as house opening information can be publicly inquired online, and even some people have registered a website in New Jersey, USA, which allows users to openly query other people's entry records in JinJiang Inn.

At present, domestic users can no longer access the website, but packets can still be downloaded to personal computers in Baidu cloud.

Earlier, the Jingdong users and Dangdang registered user data leakage incidents were also bubbling with excitement.

< /p >

< p > November 2013, an online sale of information on real QQ and WeChat users was made. The content of the information was as high as 90G, involving 80 million WeChat groups and 1 billion 500 million QQ users, with a price tag of 400 yuan.

Sellers claim that the information they sell covers all the latest and most active QQ users in all sectors of the market, and has been divided into categories according to industry, industry, age and sex. It can also query specific QQ, WeChat account, age, social network and business history.

Tencent announced in November 21, 2013 that user data leakage was a problem in 2011, and security upgrading was then conducted.

Taobao has received a request from Tencent for processing information on Internet.

< /p >

< p > the network police introduction said that in the field of e-commerce, there is indeed a hidden customer information black industry chain. In the "black market", the price of user information is sold according to the "rules", which is based on the size of the file. Most of the packaged documents are hundreds of megabytes, containing thousands of information, and the general price is tens of thousands of yuan.

Among them, the most valuable is the user information of the electricity supplier, can be sold according to the number of entries, a sophisticated analysis of the "data package" can even call the price of more than one million yuan.

Buyers have different purposes, some use information fraud, others buy all the resources of competitors, and others send advertisements to target customers.

"This industry chain is mainly concentrated in areas where e-commerce is well developed, such as Hangzhou, Shanghai and Shenzhen."

< /p >

Wang Kai, an associate professor of Internet communication at Zhejiang University's School of Journalism and communication, < p > < a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp >" believes that the protection of citizens' right to privacy is always weak in Chinese law.

In the past, when talking about the privacy of citizens, they were often mentioned together with the right of reputation. But in the rapid development of e-commerce, the right of privacy has become a property right and a spiritual wealth, especially consumer privacy.

Who would like to know how much money he paid when he secretly bought a box of emergency contraceptives? "/p".

< p > Wang Kai said that in order to prevent the electricity supplier from releasing user information leakage incidents, in addition to actively conducting business ethics education and establishing internal inspection departments to monitor timely, the national level also promulgated relevant regulations according to the new changes in the new era, clearly defined the privacy of citizens' network, and increased the crackdown on new crime patterns such as network access, publicity, and trading of personal privacy of citizens.

< /p >

< p > Chen Liangyi said that when the national level redefines the < a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp > Privacy > /a", there should be "new claims" in the Internet era. The judicial system should also increase the crackdown on the profit making behavior by using the privacy of citizens.
