Why does not the "Kiwi" purse last? Scammers' tricks

Why does not the Kiwi-purse work from the spring of 2014? It is this issue that seriously worries many Internet users and customers of the Kiwi payment system (QIWI). For a couple of months there are not only failures in the site, but also terminals. What are the reasons?

Political version

The brand "Kiwi" (QIWI) in Russia became known since 2008. This payment system and the bank can become a strong competitor to Sberbank. This network "conquered" eight countries: Jordan, USA, Brazil, Belarus, Moldova, Russia, Romania, Kazakhstan. With eleven countries (Ukraine, Colombia, Panama, Argentina, Chile, Peru, China, Malaysia, India, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan) works on franchising and with three countries (Latvia, Bulgaria, Serbia) - under license.

The official site ends with ".com" (.com), but there is also a Russian equivalent in the domain zone ".ru" (.ru). Users of the QIWI payment system noticed a malfunction in the terminals and the site at about the same time as the situation in Ukraine began to deteriorate. Many customers believe that failures in the work with the site are due to the influence of America, which has political disagreements with Russia. But these are only observations of Internet users, since there are quite reasonable explanations why the Kiwi-purse does not work.

Technical version

Before the crashes, there was one official site (qiwi.com), where there was an English-language and Russian-language version. In the spring, the Kiwi-purse team began work on another new site in the domain zone ".ru" (qiwi.ru). That's why it was impossible to enter the official website. However, technical works were not conducted around the clock and without warning to their customers.

Those customers who subscribed to the QIWI-purse news were informed about possible difficulties with working with the site. Other users at the entrance to the wallet saw a warning about technical work and apologies for causing inconvenience. Now both sites work without problems.

Also, many difficulties arose because of browsers. That's why programmers advise you to update old versions to new ones, so that any service works, including "Kiwi" purse. The QIWI site does not work in this case because of the inconsistency with the browser. In this case, you need to clean the cookies or go to the purse through another browser (best of all, "Google Chrome").

Why does not the "Kiwi" purse work? Version of fraud

In connection with the popularity of electronic purse QIWI on the Internet began to appear fraudulent sites with its brand. This, too, can lead to the fact that a person can not get into his office.

How to distinguish this site from fraudulent? At the moment, the official addresses of "Kiwi" include the following addresses:

• Https://qiwi.ru/
• Https://w.qiwi.com/
• Https://visa.qiwi.ru/
• Https://visa.qiwi.com/
• Https://old.qiwi.com/ (old version)

As you can see, the official site ends after the point on the "com" or "py" and uses the secure protocol https. Pay attention to the lock in the browser, on the real sites of kiwi it is green and has official confirmation.

Among the fraudulent sites that use the brand "Kiwi", identified:

• Http://qiwirus.ru
• Http://new-qiwi.ru
• Http://zqiwi.ru
• Http://visaqiwi.ru
• Http://visa-qiwi.net

Scammers do not use a secure protocol, the words are diluted by dashes or written together, since in official versions a dot is used after each word or letter. In order not to fall into the hands of scammers, listen to the warnings of the browser, which when passing to a dubious site gives a table about possible errors in security certificates.

When you get to the fraudulent Kiwi site and enter your data, then you will be transferred to another address. Thus scammers receive passwords from your wallet. And that's why the "Kiwi" purse does not work when you try to enter the official website again.

Summary results
