Hi first time poster here.
My company received a very big order from a company in China. The conditions include a large payment upfront, and our CEO's are supposed to fly over there next week to sign the contract. I am wary, I think this may be a scam. I know that they could use our contract to convert the up-front payment to a foreign currency (which they normally couldn't due to Chinese restrictions), and our CEO's are also supposed to invite them to dinner (twice!). The company uses free email addresses, the website has only been registered for 4 weeks. The company does seem to be fully registered in China though. My fear is that the people we are negotiating with do not belong to the company, but are using their name with a fake website.
This is the information we have:
Name: Shaanxi AoJian Industry&Trade Co. ; Ltd in China
Adresse: F Room Trade Square 70#
Dongguan zhengStr; Xi'an
email : hanxin828@yahoo.com.cn
Internet: www.sxaojian.com
Register Nr: 6100002082910
The following I found out about their website:
Domain Name:sxaojian.com

Is there a way to confirm that all this is legit and matches? It would be good to know what we are dealing with before we send our people over there next week.
Thanks a lot!

Replying to [Business in China]:Dear Sir, Thanks so much for the information you have put onto the Alibaba website regarding Chinese company authenticity. Its really kind to provide this kind of help. I was hoping you may be able to help me, I have been in communications with a company called Singo Industry Co Ltd. The problem is there seems to be two companies of a very similar name, the one I am dealing with claims the following contact details:
email: sales@singoelec.com
Tel/Fax: 86-755-83523646
Add: A08H,Jingzhou Building,Shangbao East Road,Futian District,Shenzhen,China.518000.
There is another with the website name singo.cn I'm sure that they are real - is Singoelec using this companies status to seem real?
Your help would be hugely appreciated, Many thanks for your time

Replying to [Taustin Powers]:
I think I've replied you today. If you have not got it, please add my trademanager ID for further information. Please stay away with such kind of Chinese buyers. Serious Chinese buyers never require sellers to treat them like this. I've disclosed a similar scam like this online. Be careful, I think it's a scam. A further investigation is necessary for your Chinese partner in China.
Good luck!

Hi, in your article you talk about getting a chinese registration number and double checking to see if the company is legit. Let's say I get a number how can I double check to make sure the company is legitimate. Thank you.

Replying to [bbking]:
Yes, this is one of the typical scammers located in Fujian, stay away from them!!!!!
Replying to [Royalmerch]:
After you obtain their company registered number, you may call local government authorities to check it out. In China, there are several kinds of company types, so the numbers should be different because some companies do not have the right to export or import directly by themselves. In China every legitimate company has a unique registered company number from local administrative authorities, the responsible organ at all levels is called Industry and Commerce Bureau, for example, if your target company is located in Changsha, you may contact Changsha Industry and Commerce ( http://www.csaic.gov.cn Tel: 86-731-2891606 8861324 ), Tell them the registration company number and request them to check it out for you in China. Here comes two questions, on the one hand, few local officials knows English in China, you have to speak Chinese when verify it by yourself. On the other hand, they never overwork and work at weekends for you in China, it's hard to meet their business time. This is my answer, hoping it will help you a lot.
Good luck to everybody!
