ANSWER:
Here are some links that can answer your questions:
- Do a key word search for “scam” at the CSIC website and you will learn a lot. Here is the link: http://chinasourcinginfo.org/?cat=0&s=scam
- Here is another important read for you: Too small to go factory direct?
- Additionally, I would like to suggest you view the following series of short videos co-produced with Global Sources.
- And as a side note, my grammar is far from perfect, but when dealing with suppliers in China I highly encourage you to use spell check as most supplier would not be able to understand the language used in the question you sent me above for example. It is also a good idea to have a working website to imply that you are legit.
Best wishes on your sourcing program.
