Replying to [Admin]: Has anybody recieved interest from companies in togo. I am not to sure what to make of it as they have selected products from alist I have given them with the prices. They have now requested samples. I have sent them a message basically stating the samples are free however courier service will need to be paid by you. I am waiting for a response and no request for account info has been made. The messages previous seem personaled by the questions I had sent. Are there any particular signs i need to look out for and does tt normally proppose a genuine offer of paymount as no deposit has been requested by them, thanks

Of course there are many other countries such as Botswana that are trustworthy. How naive and ignorant can one get to ask such a question??? Do you know that Botswana has ZERO tolerance for crime and corruption And do you know that Botswana has been ranked number one several times by international bodies including IMF with regards intolerrance to crime and investor-friendliness? By the way Botswana is not the only country like that in Africa - there are plenty more!!!

Replying to [Admin]: Looks like Putian City is the heaven of scammers and criminals. Everything they sell is
either bogus or fake, but worse, most in Putian city ask for advance payment and then as
soon as they receive the money then suddenly their phone numbers change, their titles and
positions change even the website they were doing business with change. Yet, some of these
so called traders are listed with Alibaba as not just gold member but as Trustpass member.
I am not sure where the reputation of Alibaba goes into picture from this. I have recently
been scammed by and taken my money and no goods were shipped. I like everyone to know and
be careful when they do business with this particular group. The tarders name is:
Huayi Trading Firm
website on alibaba = http://sportshoescn.en.alibaba.com/
The individual scammers involved in this trading firm are
Mr. Chunhua Ou
Mr. Jianxing Zhu
Mr. Derong Chen
Mr. Hexing Huayi
Mr. Hongguang Huo
and others. This trading firm (and the same people) also do business with other names such
as:
www.Shoeskycn.com
www.Sportshoecn.com
www.Moboem.com
and so on.
Please look for these individials' names and those websites and firms when doing business
with them. This is simply a group of thugs and criminals that will take your money and may
not ship any goods or inferior or fake goods to you as they did to me.
I have written to Alibaba a few times. I am yet to hear from them.

Replying to [Admin]:I tried to buy jatropha oil from nigeria. The companies offered in Alibaba. AP Oil mill and others. They offers large quantities and want to send samples against 500 until 700 US$, this should only be the frihgt charges. If I asked to introduce yourself to the chamber of commerce in Lagos, because the said the office is in Lagos. Then they told me that they are in Porthacourt and it is to far away. Then I wanted to know the adress in Portacourt, the didn´t answer. I want to find a real company ,where I can buy Jatropha oil or rapeseed oil for producing biofuels. Do you have an idea, how should I find it. I tried also several other companies from africa, and other countries. They are all not real.

Replying to [Admin]: definitely not here: Lots of scam going on here. Why not contact your embassy in that country or their embassy in your country? As far as I'm concerned that is the best way. All these silly online sites are too full of scammers to be of good use

This is from a person who was born and bred in Africa.
The world is full of scammers, but there are also good people in the world.
