it's a liar company! Let me tell you something about their fraudulent methods.

Liar companies make money in a proper way.

1. Registration: The United States, Spain, Singapore, Hong Kong and other countries have implemented economic liberalization. Generally, company registration does not require registered capital and name (as long as there is no duplicate name), and newspapers are full of advertisements for overseas companies. Therefore, it is very convenient to register an "American World Bank Investment Company". In fact, it only costs about RMB 1,. This company can't be found in the industry and commerce. It's hard to tell whether it's true or false.

2. Landing: It's handled by the agency, and the establishment of the representative office is approved by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce. The establishment of the representative office is not subject to substantive review. According to the law, the representative office can only carry out some liaison work and can't operate fees. Whether it's true or not, it's all the same. Funds are not allowed to be registered directly in the mainland, but only in the form of representative offices, so they can't be distinguished.

3. Renting a building: find some prosperous places (such as Financial Street, International Trade and Modern City), rent an office, and dress up as foreign companies at first glance, which is luxurious and imposing. Of course, some people who have no money find some apartments to rent. It's hard to tell whether it's true or not.

4. Send a letter: Look for groups with investment needs (such as patentees and enterprises) and send a letter saying that they want to invest. Some scammers don't send letters directly, but entrust some intermediaries to contact them, which is more credible and hidden. These intermediaries (for example, a science and technology newspaper of Volkswagen and a company of Beijing Guorong) are also profitable, not only earning intermediary fees, but also participating in the distribution of stolen goods. Of course, there are both true and false companies. < P > 5. Advertising: advertising in China Business Daily, Global Times, reference news, etc., claiming that you have 1 billion yuan of your own funds, and you are in a hurry to find project investment, and you accidentally fall into the trap; At that time, let's take a closer look. How many real investment companies will play high on it? Besides, if you look at advertising every month, day and night, it must be a liar.

6. Set-up: In order to attract foreign investors, scammers often say that the project is good, and even sign a letter of intent for investment (note: the letter of intent for investment has no legal effect, even if it is signed, you can not invest), and the condition of "tens of millions of dollars" for investment is very attractive. Even real companies follow this model, which is the so-called "hidden rule" of the investment and financing industry.

7. Evaluation: Seeing that you really fell for it, the swindler showed his true colors at this time, and asked the attractor to provide an evaluation report. If you don't have an evaluation report, the liar will ask you to do it, but in order to gain further trust, generally no unit is designated to do it for the first time. If you don't know where to do it, he will tell you that you should go to "a regular unit in Beijing or Shanghai to do it". In fact, this evaluation unit is a group of them, or even controlled by one person; What's more, these assessment agencies are still formal units with the brands of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Commerce, and collude with fraudulent investment companies. If you have an evaluation report and provide it to the liar, the liar will pretend to be cold for a few days, and then tell you that the report is not good, or it needs to be done by a regular unit in Beijing or Shanghai to be credible. If you are tempted, you will soon be taken in.

8. Fancy renovation: Now, under the reminder of the media and the government, it is an open secret that investment companies evaluate scams. In order to survive, many swindlers have begun to renovate their designs:

(1) Investigation fee: falsely claiming to investigate the project, and asking the foreign investors to provide the investigation fee and travel expenses. It is worth noting that they will really go, but not for the investigation, but to cope with it (if they receive money, they can't show nothing). The key point is that some real direct investment institutions are accountable for their sales.

(2) Cheat on the inspection fee and evaluation together: if you come back from the inspection, you still have to evaluate it, so forget about it. Anyway, the inspection fee has been obtained; There is competition in all walks of life. Some swindler companies put the "treasure" behind them, and even posted a little inspection travel expenses to show that they are truly powerful investors. The project party began to trust a little, and then found a national special evaluation machine to buy it. The latter evaluation will cost at least tens of thousands, up to hundreds of thousands. At this time, you have to bargain with the so-called national evaluation agency under the banner of the Ministry of Finance. After receiving the money, whether they open their doors in four or six or in five or five depends on the situation. Anyway, they are a group!

(3) witness fee: after signing the letter of intent for investment, lawyers are required to witness, and the witness fee is half for each person and 1, yuan. You pay half, which means 5 thousand. In fact, the swindler and the "law firm" are also a group.

(4) translation fee: it is said that it should be reported to the headquarters, which does not know Chinese, and it is required to be translated into XXX, and a translation unit should be appointed for translation. In fact, liars and "translation units" are also a group.

(5) Foreigners participating in the scam: It's a new trick. The swindler investment company randomly finds a young man to participate in the project reception and project inspection, which naturally improves the trust of the project party in the swindler investment company and lays the foundation for further fraud.

(6) fund moving fee: firstly, handle the first fund to gain the trust of the project financier, in which ① the first fund is not owned by the fraud investment company; ② the project financier has to bear the fund moving fee, which is generally 1-2%; ③ finally, the fund cannot really fall into the enterprise account of the project financier.

(7) security deposit: if you have completed the previous items, there is still the last sum of money to cheat you. I inform you that the headquarters in the United States will allocate funds for you, first 3%, and then 7% after half a year. But you don't participate in your management, and you don't send people to settle in. What should you do after you take the money and close the door? So I need you to make a deposit. The money will come soon, and they are right. .2 million/2 thousand went out again (Excerpt from Wu Xia, Director of Investment and Financing Department of SME Research Center of China Academy of Social Sciences. )

Wait a minute ...

However, now that all the procedures in accordance with the "hidden rules" have been completed, it will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, and maybe even debt. What is the result? Either your formalities are not complete enough, or the board of directors of the headquarters fails to pass, and you will always find an excuse to end the liar game

1. The process of cheating you:

1. When you contact the investment company, they will ask you to give them the information first-business license, tax registration, organization code, legal person certificate, business plan or analysis report. You may say that this is normal and normal procedure, so don't look down in a hurry.

2. After receiving your information, they will say, "I'll inform you after the project is reviewed". In a few days, they will call you and say, "Your project is very good and promising. The project has passed our preliminary review. Please bring all your materials to our company to discuss the next operation. They will send you an invitation letter, the contents of which are generally qualified in the preliminary examination, and please come to the company for discussion. Then here is the detailed address and telephone number, in case you can't find it, or you are in the wrong place.

note: what are they doing these days? They are waiting for time. They won't be stupid enough to say that your project has passed the preliminary examination when they receive the information. You obviously sent the information to the company, but their invitation letter was stamped with XX representative office. Why do you need to bring all the information? Because if you have all the information, they won't cheat you much money. In fact, you can't do it at all. For example, if you have a financial analysis report, they will ask you to make a financial risk report. I will explain it in detail below.

3. When you arrive at their company, you are usually received by the deputy general manager and project manager. While reading your information, they say, "We are a direct investment company, which is different from other companies. How much money does our company headquarters have in XXX country, and so on? Then they will say that they have invested XXX billion yuan in China, XXX project is their investment, and XXX place is that they have invested XXX billion yuan with XXX company. All this is to convince them that they are very powerful. If you check, there is this project under construction, but you can't find their company. If you ask them, they'll say it's a joint development. Of course you can't find it.

Precautionary tip 1

① You can ask them to show you the joint development contract, only stand at the head and the end of the sign, and they will also say that it is a trade secret.

② Any major investment and construction project must be approved by the government. The approval from the Development and Reform Bureau is not a trade secret.

③ You can look at the approval from the Construction Bureau or the Land and Resources Bureau.

④ All the above are trade secrets, so let's look at the business license of United Company.

⑤ The investment interest you are talking about is similar to that of bank deposits and loans, except for the commission. There is no risk in entrusting loans to the bank for investment. It is risky to invest in you. Is it really so stupid to invest in a company?

You should know the truth by now, my friend.

4. Sign an agreement: the investment amount, interest rate, information you need to provide, etc. according to your agreed terms. The following clauses will definitely appear in the agreement, which are all used for cheating money.

① first of all, I'll give you one. We don't charge any fees in advance.

② when visiting the project site, all expenses such as transportation, accommodation and even miss fees will be paid by the project party.

Description: A big swindler won't cheat you a penny in the inspection fee. A small swindler will ask you to remit the ticket money to them. Some of them don't come at all after receiving the money, and some of them are several times higher than the ticket money.

Precautions 2: You ask them to send the ID numbers of the people who are coming to visit you to book their e-tickets.

③ You need to provide one of the business plans, evaluation reports, financial reports, etc., which are made by qualified and mutually recognized units.

Deception: When you find someone, they say no, and they will recommend one or several of them to you. On the surface, they are not involved. In fact, they are in the same group. If the company you are looking for only needs 5, yuan, it will cost 81, yuan to go to the company they only set. You made a report and you were cheated. Both sides agree that they actually appointed it, and you may be thinking that as long as you can get more investment, it's nothing.

note: the interests of investors and project parties are the same, so don't treat yourself as a beggar and don't necessarily listen to them.

prevention 3: you can say to them: you can designate a province, and I will find a unit with national qualifications to do it, which is fair to everyone. Look at their reaction, and you can judge the truth according to their answers.

5. When you give the report to them, don't think that you are waiting for them to take the money, and there are still cheats waiting for you.

When they receive your report, they will say to you, "We'll report it to the head office right away, so just wait for the good news". After a few days, you finally got the news: "The headquarters has approved your project and decided to invest in you." The next step is to sign a formal investment contract at the location of the project party, so that you can be prepared to invite relevant leaders, who will hold a signed press conference there. You will be very happy at this time, which is really good news.

6. Deception is on again. At this time, they will tell you that they will send lawyers to inspect the project site, and the contents of the inspection are: whether the enterprise as a legal person has any criminal cases, whether it has any bad records in the bank, etc. The most important thing is that you have to pay the lawyer's fees, and you have to remit the lawyer's fees to the so-called law firm (there is a distribution agreement between them) before the lawyer will come. It is the so-called legal due diligence report or lawyer due diligence report. What will you do if the financing is about to succeed? Don't agree, you have spent (cheated) hundreds of thousands; Just like that, you'll continue to be cheated.

prevention 4: you tell them that you hire your lawyer and I'll hire my lawyer, and the expenses will be borne separately. If you have no problem, even if you have a problem, the lawyer's report is the same. Real investors will definitely agree.

7. After the lawyer's due diligence report is finished, it's not that they called you, but that you called them. Anyway, they have a good reason to delay the time. I won't go into details here. After a few months, if they really can't delay it, they will tell you that the headquarters board of directors thinks it is too risky to invest.

8. When you find them, they will say, "We didn't charge you a penny, and we spent a lot of money, but there is nothing we can do if the headquarters doesn't agree.". They didn't charge you a penny, but you paid hundreds of thousands of

the "characteristics" of the fraud investment company

1. Their names are magnificent. At present, they are mostly named as the Beijing representative office of an international investment group in a certain country, and they will also set up their own offices in a relatively decent office. You know, only by investing a certain amount of money can you get more money. Therefore, the project party must not judge whether it has the investment ability by this.

2. Liar investment and financing companies have many business personnel with low quality because such companies are not willing to spend a lot of money to hire professionals to do business, and they do not have the basic ability to train these low-quality employees themselves, and they will not spend too much energy on so-called training. So they are liars, that is to say, they are different from those who are proficient in the rules of investment and financing industry, can steer the direction of investment and financing, and can obtain sufficient funds from third parties. Most of them lack understanding of specific substantive business, which is easy to see when discussing the project in depth during the negotiation. This determines that in the process of negotiation, scammers will not discuss with you in depth, but will only talk with you about how to borrow money, necessary procedures and expenses. Clearly speaking, it is a representative office of a certain international investment group. Even the worst foreign companies will recruit clerks with the corresponding knowledge level in their own overseas representative offices. At the very least, they must understand the language of the country. Otherwise, how can they communicate with the "first generation"? (Especially in investment and financing, a knowledge-intensive and capital-intensive industry!

3. Liar investment companies generally prefer "clean" projects. The so-called "clean" is projects that other investment companies have not touched. They have never experienced investment projects and are not familiar with the tricky issues, so they are easily manipulated by these fraudulent companies using so-called industry practices, group work norms, international practices and other rhetoric. We can often see that the project parties who have negotiated with the swindler investment company for the first time hold a sincere attitude of cooperation and regard the investment company as a savior, hoping that from the signing of the letter of intent for financing, the door to financing will be opened, and at the end, the bamboo column will draw water with a sieve. It makes people feel really sad! This is in line with the old saying, "Experience is also a valuable asset!

4. Liar investment companies generally don't like the projects where the company is located. As the saying goes, rabbits don't eat grass beside their nests, and fraud companies generally don't intervene in local projects. Therefore, if there is a real local project, it will be rejected, maybe it will be clearly rejected, and maybe it will be pushed away under the pretext of immature conditions. You know, if you cheat a company in the local area and get called to your door every day, how can they cheat normally! Foreign project parties are different. If you come to make trouble once, you will have to go from other places to a liar company. The cost is too high and it is impossible to make a theory every day. The swindler company just seized this point and settled the foreign project party.
