‘Don’t Call Anymore!’ Actor’s Plea Sparks Discussion On Cold Callers

A Chinese actor’s complaints about cold calls have sparked discussions about personal information leakage in China.

Yang Di, a famous actor and comedian, shared on Monday to his more than 9.4 million followers on social media platform Weibo that he was being bombarded by incoming calls.

One screenshot shows 11 incoming calls in less than an hour from provinces including Henan, Gansu, and Hebei, and another shows more than 90 calls from Hong Kong on Monday morning.

Yang suggested that his personal information had been circulated in a group on messaging app Telegram, including his identity card number and address.

“Don’t call me anymore, I’ve changed my number!” he wrote in his post.

The news has gained 240 million views on Weibo and topped its list of most searched topics. Netizens have shared similar experiences of having their personal data leaked, including Chinese actress Zhang Xinyu, who also reportedly had her personal information circulated in a Telegram group chat.
