A gift from Vkontakte has long become not just a picture on a social network. Now the person who received the gift perceives this event as a sign of attention and care. But there are situations when you need to send a gift anonymously.
Innovations
A year ago, any user of the social network Vkontakte had the opportunity to send a gift anonymously. Recently, however, the interface and functionality of Vkontakte began to change. A lot of nice bonuses have appeared: viewing photos in full screen mode, an improved section with private messages and much more.
Good or bad, but along with such "amenities", some of the rights to which users are already accustomed, simply disappeared. Gone is the ability to send gifts anonymously to friends and other users of the social network.
The innovations in Vkontakte are primarily due to the fact that the policy of anonymity has not justified itself for a long time. Indeed, many insults and other unpleasant situations are born on its basis.
At the moment, 52% of Vkontakte shares are owned by Mail.ru Group. And, most likely, this percentage will only increase.
But do not be upset, because if you want to send a gift to a person with the best intentions, but hesitates to do it publicly, then there are “workarounds” for you.
Only for insiders
But first, it's worth talking about the opportunities that the social network officially provides when sending a gift. Perhaps you want to send a gift without giving your name to the public, but revealing yourself to the recipient.
Vkontakte provides this opportunity. After you select the gift you like, in the sending form, check the box next to the words "Show my name only to the recipient."
If you sent anonymous gifts earlier, before the innovations, then you can not worry. The Vkontakte administration assures users that their names are not disclosed and will not be disclosed.
Workarounds and possible pitfalls
So is there an opportunity to make an anonymous gift? Yes, there is. Alternatively, you can register a new page on which you do not specify a name. To do this, you will need a free mobile number.
There are a lot of "special programs" on the Internet that can allegedly send a gift anonymously. None of these programs will deliver on what they promised. Instead, a couple of viruses are likely to appear on your computer.
After registration, drop votes on the page and send anonymous gifts. You can also delete this page. Removal will not affect the gift. It will not disappear anywhere, and your page will appear as deleted.
