How to verify if the exporter is not a fraud?
Post 1 of 82
I have seen a really good product which I would like to import .
The price that the exporter quoted is really cheap and he claims to sell a well known brnad that I know is atleast twice / thrice that price.
Is very low prices a sign that the exporter may be a scam.
How can get in contact with a third party to inspect or do a transaction on my behalf.

See : http://resources.alibaba.com/topic/17109/List_of_Chinese_Helpers_verify_source_inspect_and_or_report_.htm

here are some inspection people who can help you, we are one of them.
But if the price is too good and you know the costs are very high wehn selling this can be the warning, and depends on what product as only you know?
Also the suppliers details and the communication you have had with them.

If the price for this product is too low, i would not send money without futher checks and inspection of samples.

Thanks John

Replying to [mew importer]:WATCH OUT I ORDERED SAMPLE MEMORY CARDS WORTH $800 USD AND THEY GAVE ME A TRUCKING NUMBER AND PACKAGE IS IN CUSTOMS, CUSTOMS REFUSE TO CLEAR THE GOODS AND SAID PACKAGE MUST BE DESTROYIED. LEO DONT CARE AND STOPS RESPONDING TO MY EMAILS/

THEY DONT PUT YOUR PRODUCTS INTO THE PACKAGE THEY PUT SOME CRAP WORTH A DOLLAR AND THAT IS PROHIBITED AT THE BORDERS,THE CUSTOMS STOP THOSE ITEMS AND DESTROY THEM AND AND SUNSKY HAS CLEAN HANDS. THATS HOW THE SCAM PEOPLE.

IF YOU HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEM THEN CONTACT ME AND WE CAN RUIN THEM. MY AFFILIATES IN CHINA HAVE POLICE REPORTS FILED AGAINST THEM ALLREADY. AND WE ARE LOOKING FOR MORE EVIDENCE OF THIER MISCONDUCT. THEY SENT ME THE ITEMS IF THE ORDER IS 400 OR 300 DOLLARS BUT IF THE ORDER IS LARGE THEY SCAM U AND SEND YOU CRAP. THEY LURE YOU IN THEN STEAL FROM YOU. SOMETIMES THEY LOSE ON ITEMS JUST TO LURE YOU. YOU CANT EVEN BUY THIS CHEAP IN CHINA.

Replying to [mew importer:Dear Sir,finding a third party to inspect for you is a good idea,because some time,why the top brand is much more expensive than common brand,they paid much for addvertise and other cost to promoting his brand,these cost of course will be on his client's account.

It is very important issue. Every person may have different approach but the best thing to do is method of communications. If you want to satisfy that whether the exporter is authentic or not commnicate with him through differentt ways. Ask him for catalog. And the most important thing is that trust has very much important. Get the samples first and pay throug compny's account. Before all these verify through the related chamber of commerce.

It is quite difficult to udentify a true and geniuin exporter. You have to do trial & error before you reach to a genuine exporter.

My advice is this that first you should inquire the telephone number which the seller is giving top you and confirm that the number he/she gave to you is of the same place that he told you and also do not forget to confirm the country from where he belong by the help of telephone number. Now the second thing is this that the number gave you must be land line number not mobile this will be sign that the seller is not fraud.

Replying to [mew importer]: Only GOD can help us. We should verify by asking for current POP (proof of product) from his/her bank.
Only bank confrimation can help one to know a real seller or exporter.
