Many people came up with the main topic of payment method. Western Union or T/T bank transfering to private account became the basic fraud sign. Does that 100% true? Can you tell 100% of sellers who ask payments to be made through those 2 methods are cheating? No, you can not, because there are real serious people who keep their promise.
Don't push those private person who works on trade without a company away. Safe trading is not a thing you can ensure. Because buyers have their own antinomy with as cheapest price as possible and as safly as possible. Does those 2 appears together?
Big trade company which uses a company account doesn't always has a good price, why? be logical when you are thinking. Big company has a high cost of everything (except manufactures). But, when you are doing some common products, manufactures are mostly trustful. Only when you are dealing with some brand products, I don't need to give examples you know what I am talking about.
Don't complain they sold you some copies, what you pay is what you get. furthermore, Nobody in China can supply you authentic brand products with your desired price. You will know it when you have a logical mind. Big famous brand company has their offiical dealer or Authorized dealer in most of the countries. They need to protect those dealers rights.
When you understand that, it will not be so hard to understand the copies manufactures do not mean they are big. Don't think it will be trustful when the business comes up with a manufacture. those manufacture which supplies you replica brand products, they are very small. they don't want to be paid to company account. Accutrally, most of the trader company/person knows how important the reputation is. the only thing is, you don't know if they are trustful at the first time.
What I am trying to say is, payment throught Western Union or T/T banktransfer doesn't mean scam, but need you to trust the seller. So, don't push the mistake you made to the seller, because, if you trusted and you paid but got cheated, it's your problem.
Figure out if you should trust who you are talking to is the key to avoid scams.
