Emergency response · 72 hours
Suspect a Chinese supplier scam? Don't wire. Don't sign. Call us first.
Wrong bank account at the last minute. Ghost factory you can't find on a map. Sample arrived perfect, mass-production didn't. We run an emergency on-the-ground forensic check in Shenzhen, Yiwu, Dongguan or Ningbo within 72 hours — and tell you exactly what is real.
If you're seeing any of these signs
These are the patterns we investigate every week.
The supplier suddenly switches the bank account days before the wire. The Hong Kong company name doesn't match the factory address. The Alibaba 'Gold Supplier' badge is real but the AIC registration shows a 12-person trading shell, not a factory.
The first sample is flawless, the production sample is downgraded, and the factory stops answering WeChat. Or the goods ship — and arrive missing, defective, or completely different from what you ordered.
Don't escalate by email. Once a Chinese supplier knows you suspect fraud, the trail goes cold in days. We move fast, on the ground, and bring back evidence — not opinions.
