Every year at the end of the year, scammers are also rushing to “rush to performance” and want to make a big profit before the New Year. Deducting bills of lading and asking for high prices, credit accounts disappearing, false invoices to defraud taxes…
It is an iron-clad model and a running scam. Whether you are defrauded of a few hundred yuan or millions, please spin these traps. People must keep their eyes open to avoid unnecessary losses!
Cheating for small money is “safe”
A way to cheat for “small money”, this has been around for a few years These forms of scams have not stopped in recent years. As the new year is approaching, these “little swindlers” are also resurrected, taking advantage of troubled waters.
Scammers are well aware that “no matter how few mosquitoes there are, they are still meat.” The truth is, relying on the mentality of victims who feel that it is not worth pursuing after being deceived, they often go for a few thousand yuan. For example, there are people who cheat on testing fees…
Typical “trap” method:
The scammer claims to be a Malaysian buyer and expresses his intention to purchase. He first asks you to send a catalog and specifies a certain product and then expresses his intention to order it. A cabinet, and requires you to send samples to a testing company in Guangzhou for testing. The samples are not valuable, and the main purpose of the scammers is to defraud the testing fees.
Some sellers are eager to complete the order, even if they have doubts, they think 1,000 -The inspection fee of 2,000 yuan is not a big problem, so I paid for the inspection, and then the buyer disappeared or shied away from placing the order. The inspection company distanced itself, saying that this was a matter between the seller and the buyer and had nothing to do with them.
Typical characteristics: Buyers are not picky about products, but insist on appointing unknown testing institutions.
When encountering similar purchases Home, you can first search the name of the buyer and the name of the testing agency to see if any unfortunate friends have been infected. In addition, you can agree with the buyer that the seller can pay for the testing fee, but the testing fee will be increased after the order is placed. The goods will be deducted from the payment for the goods. If you ask a few more questions, the scammer will easily reveal the truth.
Try to sell the goods at a low price and deduct the bill of lading at the port of destination for extortion
Many textile companies involved in foreign trade business have also reported that many irregular freight forwarding companies have also gone crazy and committed fraud.
The usual trick of these scam freight forwarding companies is to use prices lower than the market price. When the goods arrive at the port of destination, they will withhold the bill of lading and find various reasons to inflate the additional costs in order to extort foreign trade companies.
Abby has encountered this situation in the past two days. Two large containers are to be exported from Shanghai to the Port of MANZANILLO in Mexico. Due to a wave of price increases, the current freight for large containers on the market is generally around US$1,500.
But one freight forwarding company lied. I have a special channel with the shipping company, and I promised Abby that I could provide a shipping fee of US$900 per large container. In order to save costs, Abby entrusted the freight forwarding company to carry the freight.
The journey had been smooth sailing before, but it was a liar. The true identity was not revealed. But soon after the goods arrived at the destination port, the freight forwarding company sent a bill of expenses. Unloading fees, AMS and other cleverly named expenses were as high as 6,000 US dollars, which was obviously unreasonable.
When foreign trader Abby realized the problem and argued with the scammer freight forwarder. At this time, the scammer began to show a ferocious face and replied: Anyway, this is our company’s rule. If you don’t want to incur more port storage fees, etc., you’d better pay quickly. Scammers have taken advantage of the loophole that if the cabinet arrives at the port without a bill of lading, the longer it is left, the more port fees will be incurred. The scammer is holding back the bill of lading, and there is nothing you can do.
Here, the editor also reminds everyone that when choosing a freight forwarder, you should not just compare prices blindly, but also pay attention to the assessment of strength. You can learn more about the company’s qualification information from the State Administration for Industry and Commerce and other channels. Don’t pick up the sesame seeds and lose the watermelon.
False issuance of invoices to defraud taxes
What exactly is “false invoices”? According to the literal meaning, “false prescribing” means “false prescribing”, which refers to the behavior of not truthfully prescribing according to the actual situation. The false issuance of special VAT invoices is the act of not truthfully issuing special VAT invoices that are consistent with business activities according to the actual specific circumstances.
my country’s current tax rebate rate for exporting clothing is relatively high, reaching 16%, and the clothing industry has become the hardest hit area for export tax fraud:
Handan Meng Mou Bill Fraud Case
In 2014, Meng from Ci County, Handan City purchased five counterfeit bank acceptance bills from the Internet with face amounts of 500,000 yuan, 500,000 yuan, 500,000 yuan, 500,000 yuan, and 300,000 yuan, and later passed them through his fellow villager Han A certain company transferred five bank acceptance bills to a trading company in Handan City for discounting, defrauding the company of more than one million yuan.
The current tax fraud mainly shows the following characteristics:
1. “Shell enterprises” have become False invoices are the main vehicle for obtaining illegal benefits. The source companies that issue false invoices to external parties are mainly “shell companies” that do not carry out any business activities. Most of these “shell companies” were established by criminals by defrauding, renting, borrowing, or stealing other people’s identity information to implement false registrations.
2. “Violent violence” has become the main method used by virtual gangs to commit illegal crimes. The so-called “violent false issuance” refers to the false issuance of value-added tax invoices by companies that do not even need to fabricate any “business activities”, such as forging contracts, making false fund payments, etc. After collecting and issuing invoices for short-term existence, these enterprises make false tax returns or run away without making declarations.�.
3. “Escape and lose contact” has become the main method for criminals to avoid attacks. At this stage, “escape” has become a basic means for fraudsters to avoid attacks and so-called “protect” downstream ticket-using enterprises. At the same time, the phenomenon of criminals abusing service measures such as simplified cancellation procedures and evading inspection through cancellation is also very prominent.
4. “Allocation of orders and invoices” has become the main means to defraud export tax refunds. Some criminals buy and sell export customs declaration information for products that are tax-free or do not require tax refunds and match them with false special VAT invoices to defraud export tax refunds. Some of the so-called “products” exported have no use value and are purely “props” used to defraud taxes. Some products are exported and then sold back to the country for the purpose of defrauding export tax rebates.
Verbal agreements, credit business
These days, the most painful and helpless thing for textile bosses is generally falling into Fell into the credit fraud trap.
An order worth several million came to my door. I thought it was a big customer. There are often so-called guarantees from multiple business partners. After gaining the trust of the merchants, they reach a verbal agreement and get the goods on credit, or place orders by paying a small deposit. They defraud a large amount of goods and then disappear and resell them at a low price. This is Once in and out, the liar has both ends and nothing left.
One set can make hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions of profits! This method is “not clever” and can be said to be an old routine. More than one company has succeeded. Many experienced businessmen have failed. It is simply impossible to guard against it!
In December last year, it was revealed that 19 textile companies in Changle were defrauded of 6.19 million yuan. After review, from July 2013 to August 2015, Cai Mouqin used a small amount of payment settlement or commitment Using the staged repayment method, they defrauded 19 textile companies in Changle from lace fabrics and then sold them directly using the method of “buying high and selling low”, making a profit of 6.19 million.
He started committing fraud in 2013, fled to Xi’an in 2015, and broke the news in 2018. The time span was as long as four to five years. It is conceivable that behind this, the defrauded companies were asking for payment. The bitterness of bringing a liar to justice!
As the New Year approaches, there are more and more scammers. All textile people must be more careful and pay more attention to any abnormal phenomena found during the transaction, otherwise it is easy to fall into In the trap set by these scammers!
