Post 1 of 22
It is mostly necessary to get response to this question so as to guide against looking upon everybody from Nigeria as a fraudster.This is open to all members of Alibaba.
I would be grateful for early response by members

When doing business with foreign contacts you should be sure they are legit. Not just Nigerians.

The following are some of the things I can think of.
1) Too many people from Nigeria ask for free samples. Stop asking for free samples.
2) Usually, if somebody from Nigeria wants to buy something, their payment terms would require the supplier to trust them. Suppliers are not comfortable with this, especially if the buyer is from Nigeria.
3) Frequently, buyers from Nigeria talk of quantities that even Walmart does not buy. Thus, suppliers figure out that the buyer has no idea of the relevant field and stop corresponding.
4) Sometimes, buyers from Nigeria ask for fees to register the product with a government department or bribe some official. Even if this is true, buyers are supposed to handle the internal matters of their country; how does it concern the suppliers?
Good luck!

Unfortunatelly too many scammers and frauds are from your country.
One aspect it may change the way others pay attention to you is to upgrade as Gold Member as well to subscribe to Trust Pass .
When Alibaba member approach to you they will know Alibaba staff has reviewed the autenticity of your company and that will help you to generate business here .
Otherwise, forget about my friend as your e-mails to suppliers will be deleted without reading and marked as spam . You have more to loose know than taking a chance to upgrade and turning your company attractive to make business .
