Can you get a “red envelope” when you check in to take health care products? A woman in Shanxi, mainland China, recently found a video of her grandma “checking in to eat health products every day” in her mobile phone album. After asking regarding it, she was surprised to find that more than 70 elderly people, including her grandma, had joined this “checking in to receive red envelopes” group. What made her even more anxious and helpless was that no matter how she tried to persuade her, her grandma just refused to give up taking the medicine and punch in to receive the red envelope.

According to the “Jiupai News” report, following the granddaughter accidentally discovered a video taken by her 78-year-old grandmother taking medicine, she found out that the other party had joined a “video check-in group for taking health care products”. In the group, more than 70 elderly people followed the announcement and “video every day” “You have to punch in to receive red envelopes” requirement, and I filmed every day to ask for red envelopes from the administrator. But both the promotional techniques and the health products themselves made my granddaughter feel quite strange. After a check, she found that the medicine was not included in the government’s list of health products at all.

However, no matter how her granddaughter or other family members tried to persuade her, grandma still took pictures every day to check in and receive red envelopes. She also shared relevant information with her “elderly social circle” and told each other where to go to attend lectures on health products and receive red envelopes, eggs and other prizes. , attracting more elderly people to invite friends and companions to join. The granddaughter said helplessly, “No matter how much grandma tried to persuade her, she just refused to listen.”

After the news was exposed, although many netizens were worried that the elderly were being defrauded and may suffer from health problems, some people bluntly said that whether they were defrauded or took health supplements until their health deteriorated, many elderly people did not eat until the matter was so serious that it was irreparable. Don’t think you’re at fault or being lied to.
