Need a new vendor please
Hi everyone, I’m from the UK and would really appreciate some advice. I’m also trying to find a genuine and reputable supplier.
I was in a Telegram group with over 600 people for around 3 weeks, and yesterday I was about to place my first order. Before doing it, I randomly messaged someone privately because I saw her say in the group that she had been recommended by the same person.
She told me she had already made a payment, but after paying she was asked to send an extra $175 for an “insurance policy,” which they claimed would be refunded once the products arrived. Long story short, it turned out to be a scam. She got blocked, and she also showed me proof that several other people from the group had gone through the exact same thing.
I’m honestly shocked at how convincing these groups can be. There are hundreds of people in the chat, and every day there are messages from people claiming they’ve received their products and saying everything is amazing. Now I’m questioning how many of those messages are actually fake.
Has anyone else come across someone called SHU YIN?
Also, I still need a way forward and would really appreciate any genuine advice or direction from people who have experience and know how to avoid scams like this. Just wanted to share this so others stay careful as well.
