Guiyang Shi Shi Jewelry Fair Scam: There Is No Official Seal On The Receipt.

No valuable commodity is available.

Dozens of businessmen from all corners of the country did not report to the 24 hour news hotline 96811 yesterday morning. They still hope this is not a hoax.

Yesterday morning, the reporter arrived at the venue of the Guiyang bus logistics service company on the Huaxi Avenue (formerly Fenghuang Village used car trading market). Under the two long row of iron shed, there were different merchants displaying various kinds of stones, jewellery, and mahogany furniture, but there were few visitors and purchasers.

Knowing the arrival of the reporters, almost all the businesses came around, and you fought for me to tell each other about their own experiences. It is understood that they come from all corners of the country, north of Xinjiang, Shandong, Liaoning and other places, south of Guangxi, Fujian, Anhui and other places, and even some people from Vietnam. They all received a copy. exposition The invitation letter or message was brought to Guiyang from all sides.

"We have come from different places to spend money and rented the stalls, but the activities have left us here without notice, and the business has been cold and clear." Mr. Ma, a Anhui based stone merchant, angrily told reporters that the 10 day exhibition period was over and that many businesses did not sell a commodity.

According to the businessmen, there are more than 40 estimates on the scene. Some of the merchants may have seen the actual situation, and paid the booth fee just a few days before they left. Actually, most of the merchants who stayed behind wanted to go, but they thought they had paid the booth fee. Besides, some of the valuable goods were transported by the freight that cost more than 10 thousand yuan, so they wanted to evacuate the freight until they were still earning money.

Merchants said that during the exhibition period, except for some small commodities, such as jewellery, they sold a little bit of money, and precious commodities such as mahogany furniture and odd stones were almost unsought, and none was sold. On the spot, traders said that the most popular guy was Maimaiti, a young man from Xinjiang. He sold Xinjiang and Tian Yu to earn more than 300 yuan, but most of the money was sold to some flower and bird markets in Guiyang a few days ago.

There is no official seal on the receipt.

For such a situation, businessmen agreed that there was a problem with the invitation, "encountered a big liar, and this fraud was designed long ago."

Merchants gave reporters an invitation letter, and another text message with similar contents. The reporter saw that the invitation letter was printed on two pages of art paper coated with A4 paper, and the cover was "invitation letter of 2012 Guiyang national stone, jewelry, calligraphy and painting Expo". The time is from July 20th to July 29th.

Inside the page, said: "the national stone, jewelry, painting and calligraphy (Guiyang) fair, with a new model to build a platform, and yesterday's light, will invite industry associations, trade associations and related enterprises to participate in the exhibition. Invite senior professionals in the industry, industry experts and the vast number of strange stone dealers, buyers, Guiyang Tourism Bureau organized overseas tourism groups, domestic travel agencies to visit the site."

In addition, the booth price is marked as "3M * 3M standard booth 1500 yuan each (double opening corner position plus 300 yuan); each booth will be paid 500 yuan at the time of registration, before the entry is clear, the full payment will be allowed to enter, otherwise it will not be admitted." According to this standard, businesses have rented 10 booths and spent 15000 yuan. The "advertising plan" column claimed that "a number of media coverage."

However, reporters found that there were no specific organizers and contractors in the content. They were inscribed as "the Organizing Committee of the national stone and jewellery painting and calligraphy (Guiyang) exposition". The printed red chapter was "Guiyang Organizing Committee of the National Organizing Committee for stone jewelry, painting and calligraphy exposition".

For this reason, businessmen said that they were looking at the red chapter at that time, thinking that the government's behavior had not been given much consideration. It is still unclear which sponsor or contractor is. The receipt received by the other party did not have any official seal, nor even how much money it paid. The merchants accepted it. When asked why the other party did not add the official seal and write down the specific amount, the other side said that this is the most preferential booth price. If you want to add the official seal and write down the amount, you will have to pay a lot more money. The business is not cost-effective, and the other party will also have to pay more taxes.

Telephone and bank accounts are all in Xuzhou, Jiangsu.

Businessmen said that when they found something bad, they called each other, but they did not have a reasonable explanation, and gradually did not answer the phone, until yesterday, they could not get through the phone, and now they do not know who to turn to.

Businessmen told reporters that during the exhibition, they almost played cards and played chess. They thought they could earn money and stayed in hotels or guesthouses in the evening. But because they did not earn enough money, many businesses were temporarily sleeping in booths. What worries them now is that yesterday was the first day of the evacuation time. If they could not evacuate smoothly, they would be even more upset if they were to stop the water and electricity.

Later, the reporter learned from the security office of the Fang Guiyang bus logistics service company of the venue that the site leasing is directly rented to the sponsor by the company, and it is not clear how the organizers are following the operation. When the reporter went to the office of the company for a specific understanding, a female staff member told him that he was off duty and that the leader was not there, nor did he know the specific circumstances. The reporter noted that the office telephone of the company was unanswered during the afternoon working hours.

Reporters then inquired that the two contacts on the invitation letter, Li and Lin, were all in Xuzhou, Jiangsu. The reporters were repeatedly turned off. In addition, the reporter inquired that the bank account that the exhibitors paid the deposit first in the invitation letter also belonged to Xuzhou, Jiangsu. Baidu's search for the "national stone jewelry and painting fair in Guiyang" shows no relevant news content.

Yesterday afternoon, businessmen have reported that the police have been involved in the investigation.
