I have an entire list of suspect fraudulent companies, most of them already posted in these forums.  Please read the forums before you buy anything.


This is my message.  I recently posted some signs for a fraudulent company.  One sign was to watch out what time the suspect scammer was logging into their trade manager.  Odd and abnormal business hours in their local time was a big sign.  Since then i've noticed that many companies have not logged into their Trade Manager to show their "ON Line" status.  This means that they are reading these postings.  There was a reaction caused by our action.


Thus, all of our efforts to warn people of these criminals are working.  Please continue to help warn people of potential fraud.


If you also notice you will see a bunch of fraudsters creating new business names, again listing themselves as Trustpass and Gold Suppliers.  Take caution of these new companies.

would you pls show us the scammers' list?!

must be very very careful

Maybe we should launch a topic about how to avoid being cheated!

Those are both good ideas. There are posts here that have lists of companies and also i've posted individual companies just in case a person does a search on a specific company name. It helps them from fishing through the large threads generated when discussing multiple companies in response to a post. Anyway, who's going to start what? I'll contribute information that I think will be helpful to warn people and hopefully avoid being scammed.

Let me say again. These are only suspect. These companies are not confirmed as scammers by me but you can do your own research. I will not do the research further. This is information i'm just passing along. You do the research. You make the decision. Read the forums on how to tell a SUSPECT and how to determine the real thing. Take your time. Don't get scammed. TAKE YOUR TIME AND BE PATIENT. DON'T RUSH INTO ANYTHING. WITH TIME YOU WILL MAKE YOUR DECISION TO DO BUSINESS OR NOT. THIS IS THE LAST I WILL SAY ON THIS THREAD.

Everyone hates scammer!
We must be very careful . Before doing business with some company especially before paying or sending out your goods you must investigate your business parter completely,so you can reduce your risk to the lowest.

would you pls show us the scammers' list?!

ALIBABA.COM IS ACCOMPLICE IN CRIME OF SCAMMERS.



Hello everyone,

It is about time that we hold alibaba.com responsible for not verifying the GOLD MEMBERS who

actually turn out to be scammers.


Alibaba.com claims that their gold members are verified and gives you impression that these

companies are trustworthy. But it turns out that almost all of the scammers have gold

memberships.


Kindly use your common sense and ask yourself that who is responsible in the first place??


It is alibaba.com management who is directly responsible for fraud if the gold members turn

out a fraud company. If they do not give Gold Membership and Verified Member status to these scammers, you and I will be safe from these scammers, but now a days it is easy for scammers to get a gold membership.


Just like the scammers will stop answering you once they got your money, same way

alibaba.com is silent on why there are so many scammers with Gold Memberships.


It is amazing for me to see the amount of fraud going on here and still the management

doesn't take any action at all.


Just go to alibaba.com main page and search for "original laptop" or "iphone", you will

notice that most of the companies listed as gold members have posted as many as 2500 selling

leads. Now if you start to go through any such company's various selling leads, you will

immediately notice that they are all bogus entries, the photos are lifted from here and

there on the interenet, the text under each entry is something like "original brand used

laptop oem original dell xps laptop oem" the text makes no sense at all.


Why does alibaba.com allow scammers to post as many as 2500 bogus selling leads?? The answer

is simple, they want money from scammers, because scammers are more in number than original

companies. So alibaba.com's main revenue comes from scammers.


That is why they are always reluctant to remove these scammers from their portal.


We must join hands to stop this exploitation from alibaba.com and hold them responsible for

all the frauds that are committed by GOLD MEMBER companies. Wether anyone gets scammed or

fooled, alibaba.com keeps making money, isn't this cruel?
