More Than 100 Textile Companies Have Been Cheated, Involving Up To 8000 Million, And 4 Deception Has Been Exposed.

The crime of contract fraud is one of the most frequent economic crimes in recent years. In recent years, the Keqiao court has handled 20 cases of contract fraud, involving 1.7 billion yuan. Among them, there were 12 cases involving fraudulent cloth, accounting for 60% of the total number of cases accepted. The textile industry has become the hardest hit area of contract fraud, which is related to the flourishing textile industry and the more active market in Keqiao.


And in the spanaction process, the parties often only reach an oral contract. The illegal elements can take delivery of the goods from the cloth manufacturer by prepayment part payment or deposit, and agree to pay the bill 30 days later.


However, when the fraudulently deceived cloth from the seller, it is not used for production and operation, but is sold at a low price. When the payment period expires, it will be used to replace the cell phone number and change the place of residence.


Over the past two years, more than 100 enterprises have been victimized in Keqiao, involving more than 8000 yuan.


According to police, over the past two years, many small textile enterprises in Keqiao, Lizhu and Lanting Pavilion have suffered similar contract fraud.


The fraudulent party claims to be a local foreign trade enterprise in Keqiao, exporting more than 10 containers a day, with abundant funds. At the very beginning, they ordered 100 thousand or 200 thousand yuan of grey cloth to these textile enterprises, each time the cash on delivery. With the close cooperation between the two sides, the spanaction volume gradually increased to more than 1 million yuan. After the textile enterprises issued a large quantity of goods, the convenience disappeared suddenly.


In fact, the other party's so-called foreign trade enterprise is an empty shell company, which has been cheated from local textile enterprises by selling the white wolf in an empty handed way, and then selling it to other customers at a price of around 40 percent off.


Up to now, the Keqiao provincial public security sub Bureau Economic Investigation Brigade has destroyed 3 such fraudulent gangs, arrested 15 suspects, and victimized more than 100 textile enterprises, involving more than 8000 yuan of fraud.


Then, what are the specific ways of contract fraud in the textile industry? Why? What warning role does it leave to the textile industry operators?


The "hidden rules" of textile trading boosted the temperature of contract fraud. According to introducing, in these contract swindling cases, most of the deceived are small and medium-sized enterprises or individual businesses, and their legal protection consciousness is weak, so they are easy to be deceived. This is mainly reflected in:


Some practitioners lack sufficient understanding and mastery of contract law. A complete contract requires not only the specification of goods and goods agreed upon by the buyers and sellers, but also the place of delivery, the quality inspection agreement, and special attention should be paid to the territorial jurisdiction requirements of the law.


But the current situation is that some practitioners do not even sign contracts with the other side, let alone contract standardization. There are also some enterprises internal management mechanism is not perfect, or loose, let company salesmen have loopholes to be drilled, so as to cheat with fraudsters.


Of course, there are also some objective reasons for the increasing number of contract fraud in the textile industry. First of all, the industry is fiercely competitive and homogenization is serious. Some owners, who are eager to make quick gains and gains in order to conclude spanactions, do not recognize the identities of fraudsters seriously, and blindly trade.


Second, the textile industry has become a habit of trading, it seems to become a "hidden rules" of spanactions, the general buyers can not pay any cost, you can purchase goods, that is, "fight the White Bill" to do business; even if the payment of goods, the proportion of the total loan is low, generally around 10%~30%, so as to provide a sufficient space for the cheater to "reverse the difference".


There are four main types of contract fraud in the textile industry: Keqiao police:


01


Borrow chicken and egg


Case: the general economic capacity of Mo Mou, a fictional "Shandong Ji'nan cloth industry Co., Ltd.", and claiming to be the company's chairman. Not long after that, he made an oral agreement with the owner of a textile printing company in Shaoxing, who bought the printed paper produced by Liang, at the price of 1.2 yuan per meter, and agreed to pay the money on one hand and deliver the goods on one hand.


After seeing his name card, Liang agreed to establish business relationship with him. But after the goods were issued, Momou had always been on the grounds of "big business and insufficient funds" and never mentioned the payment of goods. A year later, Momou still did not pay the loan. Liang can only report to the police, only to know that the company of Momou is completely empty.


In fact, Momou also took the same means to defraud another two textile companies, worth 180 thousand yuan. Because Momou's company is fictitious, this also brings certain difficulty for public security to solve a case.


Comment: the company of the cheater business card is purely fictitious, no business license, no registered rent, no production equipment, but usually rents an office building (or apartment suite) to install the facade. Of course, some fraudsters even make their own identity information fictitious. After they swindled goods from the victim units, they sold them in a timely fashion, and eventually fled after being cheated.


02


Bravado


Case: Qiu Mou was a legal representative of a textile and apparel company in Shaoxing, but the company was very small and business was difficult to carry out. Later, in order to expand its business, Qiu claimed that the company had a large volume of business, and had to import hundreds of thousands of cotton cloth every month. It also had to cooperate for a long time and set up business contacts with many textile production enterprises under the guise of paying part of the money.


And these textile production enterprises, to see that Qiu Mou has a factory and business license, so they believed it, and sold their gray cloth to Qiu Mou. In two months, he purchased 4 million 460 thousand yuan of all kinds of grey cloth and sold it to others. The proceeds were partly paid to the injured units, but most of them were squandered for themselves.


Comment: the company is very formal. It is not only registered in the industry and Commerce Department, but also will lease the factory building, purchase machinery and equipment, and even recruit several workers to produce in the workshop, which is easy to generate trust. The surface is very formal, but behind them, in order to further deceive the other party's trust, they also exaggerate their economic strength by falsely exaggerating their own economic strength. They are forged, altered or cancelled or other false property rights certificates, false land use certificates, and all the housing warrants, so as to catch bigger fish.


03


Give up a small house


Case: in 2004, Chen and others jointly established a textile company in Wuxi, but the company was actually operated by Chen. In 2008, Chen received the right to export orders from an enterprise in Hongkong. Since then, Chen began to do business with some enterprises in Shaoxing, but initially they were small bills.


For a long time, Chen and some textile enterprises have become more and more popular. Later, Chen bought a 7 million yuan fleece from a textile mill and borrowed 500 thousand yuan to pay the deposit. After taking the goods, Chen sent them to the corresponding units for processing, and received processing fees one after another. But she still did not pay the payment of the textile mill in Shaoxing according to the contract requirements.


Despite repeated speculation, Chen prevaricate with various reasons. Later, Chen concealed his communications tools, removed the company and disbanded company employees, and eventually resulted in a loss of more than 220 yuan in Shaoxing.


Comments: this trick is actually often said "let small take big". A liar does not have the actual ability to perform. He often performs small contracts or partial performance contracts, so that the other party believes in his ability and sincerity to fulfil the contract, thereby signing a larger contract with the target amount. He will disappear after being swindled to a large amount of property.


04


Collaborate from within with forces from outside


Case: in 2009, Chen established a textile company in Shaoxing county with a registered capital of 500 thousand yuan. Although there were companies, Chen's business was very limited.


Soon after, Chen knew a salesman of an import and export trade company in Shaoxing, Wang Mou. The two men were the same. They sold the cloth from their company to Chen's company and sought to sell the cloth at home, but the money was never paid to the company. Finally, the two men swindled over 205 yuan worth of goods.


Comment: the so-called "thief" is difficult to prevent. Some textile enterprises provide some opportunities for some employees to turn their brains because of the imperfect internal management mechanism. And this kind of means should also make it difficult for companies to resist. Therefore, for textile enterprises themselves, staff management should not be too laissez faire.


Suggestion: "no debts, no business". In the textile industry, there is a saying that "if you want to deliver the goods on one hand and pay all the goods at once, then you will never have a business door".


It is precisely this kind of business mentality that has been exploited by criminals and has started a business called fraud. But what is even more unbelievable is that not only new recruits, but also those who have been employed for a long time are being cheated from time to time. In their view, if business wants to be bigger, they must be a bit adventurous, so the phenomenon of default payment becomes normal.


Enterprises should strengthen risk prevention management. The targets of criminals are often those with weak management ability and low awareness. The contract managers' legal consciousness of the injured units is not strong, the audit of the contract is not in place, or even a written contract is not signed, which allows criminals to take advantage of it.


Therefore, for unfamiliar trading objects, enterprises can make full use of guarantee means, adopt guarantee methods such as guarantee, mortgage, pledge, lien, deposit and so on, reduce the risk of the contract to a greater extent, and regularly train the business personnel to enhance their awareness of prevention.


For the object of the initial spanaction, it is necessary to examine whether the subject of the contract is legal. Through the consultation of industrial and commercial registration or consultation with the industry personnel, we should understand the situation of the contract body, and not rush to make business and neglect to guard against it.


Moreover, we should pay special attention to the abnormal phenomena in the spanaction process. We need to pay special attention to the sudden increase of trading volume, delay in delivery time and frequent change of contact modes after several spanactions.


The cheater has always been an old problem in the textile industry. Moreover, with the passage of time, fraudsters' cheating means emerge in an endless stream.


Finally, Xiaobian sincerely reminded that nowadays business is hard to do. When textile people encounter similar incidents, they must have more eyes.
