\u26a0\ufe0fSuppliers and Factories beware!<\/strong><\/p>\n

An organization has forged the identity of the organization Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) <\/strong>to scam foreign companies. It is suspected that they created a fake website<\/strong> as ECOWAS and contacted us\/other factories or suppliers to broker him\/his team a supplier of face masks. They placed a large order with a value of up to 37 million USD (details as attached Contract) and offered to pay 100% of the order value. However, we – VIS a.k.a the 3rd party was suspecting when they asked the supplier to pay the attorneys’ rent in advance- which appointed by that fake organization <\/strong>to sign the contract on behalf of the supplier for ~$12,000 because the two parties cannot meet face-to-face due to the epidemic situation.<\/p>\n

We then did research and found some posts that happened in China with other suppliers in China (details as an attached link) <\/strong>https:\/\/www.douban.com\/group\/topic\/193432168\/<\/a><\/p>\n
