How many people have been swindled by Chinese suppliers? what's the percentage?
Post 1 of 244
I want to do a poll, but there is no voting system here. [em9] So, I have to ask and hope you guys can reply.

Most Chinese suppliers are honest, or did you get swindled by them? [em11]

Tell us your experience. Sharing is good, right?

Sorry to learn your case.


Firstly, please report this scammer to the alibaba service team.


If you have done a little bit research on the internet about Putian, you will find Putian is notorious for scammers. You should be very careful for buying any products from there.


It is a learning curve for newbies buying overseas. Always need to do your own due diligence works before sending payment to someone you knows nothing.


To get your money back, please report your case to China embassy in your country, or contact Putian local Industrial & Commercial Bureau at 0594-2692463 Email: pt315@tom.com. Their website is http://www.pt.fjaic.gov.cn/ (if you can read Chinese).



Hi!

I got quotes from this guy Re Re Re --- who used the name Kevin.He said his Company was Yeray Tech ---.and listed two phone numbers.Before sending any money I called one of the numbers and got a young lady on the line and she game me a cell no but nobody answered that.I called the first number again and asked for an office number and she said he has no office so that was a red flag right away.The guy sent me an e.mail a few days later asking about the money which i deleted.What really made me suspicious was the way in which he would confirm any addition to the product even though in actual fac6t what I asked for should have practically doubled the price.I suggest that before dealing with any Chinese outfit one makes a phone call to the number given at some odd time out of working hours because if the  number is not of any company nobody will answer.I have successfully dealt with two people there and I can reccommend them without hesitation.One was a young lady named Jessics and the other guy was Peter.Both are assumed names I guess but these two people were absolutely genuine.Whenever I phoned they answered  right away.

All above information are not correct. The land line was not exist, and the bank phone No. can't get through. Both the bank address and home address were not exist at all.


Only the beneficiary name and bank account are correct to receive money.


So, there is no way for I to trace the guy "chen hua" unless the policeman get involved.



I am currently in negotiations on trade key with a company named, Fenghua Trading Co. LTD. Has anyone heard of them or done business with them? If so, are they a scam? Thanks.

THIS MESSAGE IS FOR EVERY ONE !! HAS ANYONE EVER HEARD OF E-GLOBALTRADE.COM??? AND IF SO ARE THEY LEGIT??



Unfortunately, you met a scammer.


Why would you send money to someone you know little? Do you know the company name, business address, register No. , telephone No.(landline, not just a mobile No.)


Greedy people normally get loss.  Sorry!

You should not judge a company just by its name. If you could release more information, maybe we can help you to do a simple verification.

Respected Sirs,

                             I sourced a chinese company in 2007 for cement clinker to buy for my Italian customer, I signed agreements and comission contract with  that company. After getting complete safe payment, the chinese company is not paying my comission to me.

I have all legal documents with me here and enough evidence that they are cheaters but problem is this is China and who will help a foriegner against a chinese.

everyone here just want to have a false face. I am not mean to insult anyone but i have evidences in my hands, now you will think that why i am not gonna deal by laws. I know Chinese courts very well. They usually use years to years to deal with this kind of cases and i need to put a lot of money in this.

Tell me where was I wrong and where the chinese company is right?

Serve you Honestly.

Sair

I am sorry to hear your lose of $1200. It is so obvious that XinYi Group is a fake company as they didn't provide the company name, address and his bank information in conform with each other. Also, there is no inland telephone No. to trace.


I can help those serious buyers to get your money back. Please give me detail information about your company and the scammers, so I can help you report and file the case in local police or commercial Industrial bureau.

Hi all,

You'd better trade with someone using an email of his own company. It's might be easy to build a website, but I think it's not so easy to create a email server. All formal companies has a email server of themselves.

Sorry to hear your loss.

The contact address they gave you was fake info, where you couldn't reach them. You should have a Chinese associate to help you audit the supplier before sending the money.

Use cautions next time. [em18]
