Chinese CAR SCAM EXPOSED - They STOLE $31,000 and Sent me a PINK GOLF CART. 

Hahaha YES 😆

Brilliant idea yessss

How about shipping then a truckload of Winnie the Pooh merchandise and Free Hong Kong signs and t-shirts?

ROI for you!

Lmao.

@@charlieredeemed I'm also laughing 😂😂

We just need one more payment and we will send you your money

I totally agree !!! So many red flags !!! I hate it for this guy but he should have at least caught it wen they wouldn't accept protected payment methods.... I still feel sorry for the guy though

@@issadraco532 very well put !!! He obviously is living better than most to afford to buy a 30k car and new house !!! BUT IT WAS SO OBVIOUS !!!! Still feel sorry for the guy though...

🙌👍

Yep but he’s so young and I bet he will never get scammed again so might have been a 40 thousand dollar education and with the price of school these days he got off pretty cheap!

@@issadraco532 Wow, i like your the racists recommendation. What can i recommend from before buying expensive things online is : 1. Buy it from reputable company 2. Check the internet to see if other people have already bought the product from the company 3. Make sure that you can return the wrong item 4. Make sure that the online platform hold the money until you receive the item

They are litteraly the gold standard for intellectual property fraud. They don't care and neither does the consulate. They are ruthless.

@@RP-ue9wy yep

I still think this is a great suggestion he does not lose anything by at least trying.

With the state of things China can not afford this level of bad publicity contacting government oversight agencies both U.S and Chaina will at the very least add Pressure to the company so its 100% worth trying

It's all corrupt save ur time

Don't believe this story at all, it took me less than a minute to research this vehicle he wanted to buy. Back in 2020 the predicted price of this car, that had yet to be produced was $125,000. I do price comparisons on everything I buy, even on a can of tuna. I'm not saying everyone thinks like me but I am pretty sure that if you're buying a brand new car even in the U.S. you're going to do a price comparison. Now if you're going to buy a brand new car from a foreign country and have it shipped to you I would assume that would be the very first thing you would do, especially when you see a price of $29,000 for an electric supercar!? Keep in mind this guy thought he was going to pay $29, 000 that meant the retailer he was buying it from, because he was not getting it from the factory, had to make their cut. That means they were buying the car from the factory for probably somewhere around 20 to $22,000. A brand new Honda Civic cost almost $30,000!!!

@@dannydonnelly8345 truly a strange tale. You're right. Makes for awesome youtube drama though!

@@dannydonnelly8345 the car literally only has 325hp I don’t think it was worth it anyway. You could get a gr Supra or something for the same price and faster.

Lots of guys named Tony and vinny in china

Don't do business with guys named Tony period.

Tony? You know Tony too huh

yes, paypal operates on china, i buy pc stuff to resell here on brazil and all transactions are made with paypal. Not had a single problem at all with my suplier, even if i had, i can cancel the payment if the seller doesnt play honestly

Nícolas Piano Are correct they do operate inside China. Just checked and been that way least a year. One aspect of this clone car not discussed. If a genuine copy had arrived would the intellectual property owner sue the buyer? Just trying to get my head around the situation it’s a huge wedge of money to lose. Maybe the Inja, pull something out the hat and recoup his loses, we should spur him on to greatness and more good content.

yep, this comment officer, this men!😊 p.s. i gues this whan he did he did it knowingly for everything just for contern i suppose!?🤫

never buy anything costly overseas. ! Even if hegotten that car it may be total crap. so if you have 40 k to blow, just go get tesla 3. or finance tesla S. at least u get service and parts if needed.

@@ansv3340 Teslas are ugly, boring, and way too common on RU-vid for anyone to care.

Ikr, that's the biggest red flag, enough to cover the entirety of planet earth. That's like the most obvious giveaway. No way in hell does an established international automobile company not accept EVERY form of universal payment available.

He skipped Over that by saying he didn’t get a reply... so he just sent the money by wire... lmao

andycarollsuarez I mean lots of companies would never want to take the cut that a credit cars would charge for a big purchase like that. You almost never see that in normal circumstances

The biggest red flag was that there was a 70k dollar SUPERCAR offered on ALIBABA for 30k. The same website you can buy plastic toys for 30 cents on...

Not really. Wire transfers are the normal way to pay in business. Alibaba is actually a B2B site and not B2C. The big red flag is that the supplier did want to go through the Alibaba system, which has some sort of safety mechanism.

No sorting this...it's a done deal.

I agree 👍🌈

Bruh.

I know I'm thinking "is this a skit?" No one could be so dumb.

Yeah, I agree! Like you’re going to blindly send $30k in hopes that it’s legit!? If you have $30k in your account to purchase a car cash, why not spend what $1600 to go there and know that you’re getting what you’re paying for!!?? There is no way in hell I’ll ever send $30k to someone I don’t know, I can’t physically see… so many red flags that I almost think this was all a calculated risk to get major views on YT… Also, his videos on this have had millions of views so chances are he is not hurting much from this…

@@michaelvickers89 That's a good point, plane tickets aren't that expensive If you're willing to fly coach, a couple grand here Could have caught the scammer redhanded . You might have even gotten a nice Chinese vacation out of it( Granted stepping into the peoples Republic and out of the tourist zones makes my skin crawl)

@@mrspeigle1 you wouldn’t even believe the level of scams in China. Couldn’t begin to comprehend. It’s all controlled by Government.

@@Glostahdude sounds like you don't know what you're talking about. How do you know the government has anything to do with any of this? These kind of scams go on in this country too buddy. All the time. Just look on craigslist. The fact is this guy was extremely stupid if the story is true. this car lists for $129,000 back in 2020. If he seriously did this thinking he was going to get a $129,000 car that hadn't even been produced yet, for a fraction of the cost is naive as you are.

Or adding the $2k now to fly over and burn down the house of the guy you were communicating with for the purchase

Yea really. Sounds like they are doing drugs to me. A normal person would have been crying and screaming with pain. But his frind says , I just stuck a nail all the way true my hand. Yea these guys are crack heads for sure.

Right?? Weird..

Xitler 维尼大帝 no it’s not, how was he supposed to get to China from USA?????? Have u heard of the global pandemic we are currently in??? He would’ve had to wait at least 2 years to fly there. So no, it’s not “weird”

Not possible, COVID means he can’t fly over and would have to wait for ages. So no, time is money and he’d be waiting too long for it to be worth jr

That means we should never trust in chinese products. If I was a legit chinese enterprise, I would be really mad at them. Lowering china reputation.

Lmao I know right....wait was wondering if you might be interested in owning your own bridge

My favorite 419 was a Nigerian airman was stuck on MIR and needed to pay the Russians for a rocket launch etc etc etc

Hi I'm down on my luck ATM I really need a break is this Nigerian offer legit I can get the funds asap ??

This scam got nothing to do with Nigeria. China run more scams than any COUNTRY in the world.

@@xlgoldfish ... Good SOH required

@Matt Six Yep

Well said

Yup huge red flag, if the car cost the equivalent of a $150000 in China , why would anyone ship one overseas for $30000 from the US? Even if they were desperate to sell I promise you they could have found a buyer in mainland China For 2 to 3 times that amount.

....and at 9:38 he says something about a "sample car" which he can sell within 60 days so he can get the real one?? Like what is that???? Yeah, the red flags were constant. "net 30 or net 60"... lol. This isn't a business to business transaction where you're ordering 20,000 paperclips, you're buying a car here. He's also obviously got money, I looked him up, not to mention he owns a pretty badass nice new Camaro and a beautiful home that he actually did purchase near the time of this video. (I'm not going to release any of his personal info but I know who he is.) You said it all perfect, I don't need to go on.

Yeah, the silence then demand for immediate payment, that wasn't a red flag, that was a freaking red gate that says cut your losses and don't proceed. I'm very curious about the next video that says he got a refund in a scam way?

He's a millennial and a cringetuber, they can drop 50 grand like its $5. You know how all your taxpayer dollars go to the government who then sends it to kids like this for their "college tuition"? Yeah, this is where that college money goes. Many many more millennials lost 1/4 million or more dumping their entire college fund into bitcoins, lost it all, then committed suicide after realizing they can't get the money back.

ikr

I agree. If you van buy it straight from the manufacturer for 30k. Why would anybody by it for the retail price of 100k. It doesnt make sense. That's why these kind of things doesn't happen. For example phones of Chinese brands. You can get them for maybe a little bit cheaper on Alibaba, but not for 1/3 of the price. If you do find them for 1/3 of the price, you know it isnt legit. That common sense. That's why I still think this video itself is a scam. A very smart elaborate one I admit.

@@bob010NL-z7t how would this video be a scam? That made no fucking sense, dude. What is he getting from this video? He has all email content and the proof to show what he ordered vs what he got. Are you an idiot?

Right? Like buying a U$200 Iphone 12 Plus on Wish!!!

@@bigcauc7530 what is he getting? Are you dumb or do you not know how youtube works?

Much appreciated and glad to help out!

You can also get advice from seasoned Amazon sellers who deal with sellers on alibaba regularly. they hace consignments by freight often so may have more experience to check shipment at China ports.

Also, I know I've mentioned this on some videos before, but you do know that Inja means "dog" in Zulu...? Not sure if the nickname is intentional or not

They all do that, sadly

@@TheInja not true bro, I've done some business through Alibaba, and the suppliers I still work with today are very respectful, the ones that were kinda rude I dismissed, can't know for sure if they were a scam but thankfully the ones I have actually done business with are very respectful yeah.

Fuzzman I was saying the same thing. No company would talk to a customer like that.Never pay money until you have the product. You can see why people think this is just to make a a video. 500 dollars is a lot if money to write off in these times. And you are writing this off like its not a great big deal.

Me 2

The Inja Actually its a big red flag as no company will treat a customer like that

It's $40K after transport and customs. He said it in the last video.

@@vesogry a pink golf cart. $40k. After customs and transport. Let that sink in

@@vesogry I think he said he was trying to get his money back from customs.

😝👍👍

Well he wanted to do a series of a car that isn’t “overrated”. Tesla video series are kinda overrated for say, and he wanted to do a series on a unique electric car from China

He should've did more research, FOOK HIM!!!!!!

Sadly, I've found that add on costs are commonplace when dealing with Chinese companies. They quote a low base price, then make it back from options.

For sure. But I know people who ship $100,000+ shipments and because of the Rona, shipping is literally $30K more per shipment for them. Wasn't a red flag to me at all.

@@TheInja thats true. I work with a factory in pakistan and shipping went up a lot!

He was already hooked at that point. The time to be suspicious was when they wanted a payment method that could not be reversed, and wanted to do it outside of Alibaba's protection. I can see his surprised Pikachu face as he sees the crate. It was obvious long before that.

@@S2Tubes I agree. This was a red flag with a bulls eye right in the middle. Wire transfer is a hell no. "Standard practice" or not.

Yeah mega scam

I was gonna say that... seen micro sized Hyundai, bigger than this car in video, in Philippines for about 9k usd top end model...

I like the hard, like really, really HARD, without lube, very rough...

I need a link to that lol

Yeah and the Quiantu K50 cost $150,000. So if somebody says they have one for $29,000, stop right there

Especially when they immediately go against terms of the contract. They were willing to lie in the contract, what else are they lying about? They definitely didn't want him seeing the car before payment and pushed him as hard as possible to get the payment. I fell for something like this ONCE. A guy offered to sell me something at school, some collectible from a recent fad. I paid half with the promise that I'd get it the next day. Nothing. Then the day after "I didn't get it to you because you didn't finish paying it!". Finished paying it, dude never talked to me again.

This is why I love Wish.com

It took me a couple minutes to check out the supplier report available on Alibaba to see this is a company with no track record and 3 orders in the last 180 days. I wouldn't even buy a t-shirt from them.

That’s so true!!

FACTS

True... but along they way you actually missed some legit good deals... :D

That's the only red flag I noticed I don't even chat outside of Alibaba. Those their WeChat, WhatsApp chats don't work on me. It's either Alibaba chat or NOTHING. That way I'll have evidence to open dispute with. With Gmail communication, Alibaba trade assurance is out the window as Alibaba can't do anything as the deal lacks any credible evidence. Also I never pay outside of Alibaba, though the sellers say that it is higher; I don't care about the higher fees attached. At least I won't get ripped off.

@@xlgoldfish you are very right, always insist on Trade Assurance, though lately they have been ruling in favour of the sellers, but you will have alibaba itself to drag issues with who will in turn fish out the culprit seller . I think we all should look for alternatives, China can not be holding us all to ransom in the name of cheap things

@@thinkdiyafrica That's true, for now they sure appear to be the cheaper alternative.

Yes no company has an email on gmail....they have emails on their own name

what about the extra random 2K tony asked for?

What have you done with your life ?

hes lucky he got anythign shipped period lol

@@GiozRockin it does not make any sense.

Coolissim0 Unl1mited well I’ve never blindly paid some Chinese guy 30k like a moron

@@crazymotionride well you haven't done shit with your life either.

I was thinking that myself.... even if they did send him a real car he would be making a video about how he didn’t know about the 25 year rule lol

Wow, so he couldn't even register it even if it was the real deal. I guess he could run it on a track? It doesn't seem that's what he was planning though. So either his brain melted when he was buying the car or he's bullshitting us.

Contract already said "within 60 days of delivery". Dude should have stood his ground and said "No".

Yah. 💯

Dude, he released the $2000 he placed on hold after he got the pink golf cart. I can't believe these scams actually work.

@@Blackspidy619 it actually said 50 days. But still, he shouldn’t have let the seller change the terms

Seems like a 100% great idea

A couple of things Inja, you seems to be a very nice guy so please don’t take this personally but: - Buying from alibaba do not imply buying from manufactures automatically - The company behind this guy Tony is not the manufacturer of the K50, this is just obvious...They can try to pretend to be resellers or indépendant dealership at best looking by the size of their operation but how could you ever believe they where representing a MULTI-BILION dollar Gov funded EV factory ? - Qiantu do NOT sell on Alibaba, why would they ? They will never do such thing since they are positioning themselves as a luxury brand. And Like I said, they are a multi billion dollars company backed by the Chinese Gov. And they actually have an official rollout to import officially the K50 to the world in the future, the USA included. - Do you really think that a $100k+ sportcar is manufactured for less than $25k ? and that anyone would make any profit selling it new for that price? You just don’t know how car manufacturing works my friend and what the profit margin are in this business. It’s just ignorance at this point. Qiantu is selling at lost (zero profit), and they will sell at lost for the next 10 years before reaching scale and having any sort of ROI (return on investment). AGAIN That’s billions of $ invested in R&D, factory and manufacturing...its will take years before any profit and they can do that only because they are backed by their government, its a long term stategy. It Can be a huge win for them or it can be a huge disaster, the future will tell for sure. - Just by the price of the listing it was an obvious scam 🤷🏻‍♂️ . I bet you can’t even get one in salvage condition for this price in China...I mean this car comes with a shit load of handmade carbon fiber parts...Too new, too high-end, too high-tech to find any deal anywhere on that car...and definitely no deal « new from factory on Alibaba » that’s delusional 🤣 - Next time, i hope you will do your homework better my fiend, was you did was not enough ;) hope you get your money back somehow. Try to get them backlisted as scammers by Alibaba and PayPal at least to get some kind of justice.

25k is a lot in China, way more than the cost of that car. 10k could buy that. Normal cars in China are 10k, this is likely 5k If your buyung a car in China fly there is actually not that hard. You would have been impressed if you actislly fly there to buy. Ive done it a bunch, China was how i made money before covid, and the profit is insane high You should really go there if you have money to play with, the deals are crazy but you must be there to actually check and confirm the item. They have too many sketchy tactics If you actually want to go there hit me up, i know respectable accountable people in yiwu i have dealt with a lot

@@ryananouar Spot on.

100% true!! if your are in this business you would understand. Trust is the most valuable currency in foreign trade and trust is build by risk taking.

I would have noticed the scam the moment the guy didn't want to go through an insured payment method.

Good advice 👍🌈

@KiLLA CAiN yes you're right. I mean, email should match company profile. Dunno if it would help in this situation though.

It was a business email. You can see it in the emails.

Definitely. I was rooting for him to have a way to get the money back, but I doubt that’s possible now since most of the safeguards were not followed. It was screaming scam from the moment they refused Alibaba payments. I’ve had them refuse PayPal before when buying from Alibaba, but never wire directly. Dang, F man, that was painful to watch.

@@tiborklein5349 lmao

I agree. 👍🌈

Well, in fairness, he was able to import "a car" technically, just the wrong one. So I guess it's possible to import the car. Insuring it? Registering it? Who knows? He should have called his insurance agent, just for kicks, to see what he would have been looking at. Maybe he did that, dunno.

I'm pretty sure there are special rules and regulations for importing road legal brand new cars compared to non road legal golf cart type cars. Just look at their 25 year old rule for second hand cars. Also there would be tariffs on brand new cars as well as certification by the dot to be allowed on the roads in the US. You generally just can't import any car from the internet into most countries yourself especially new cars. I think he was quite nieve in believing that a car would be as easy to import a motorcycle. That's probably why he got the low powered bike version sent to him so it wasn't classified as a road legal motorcycle and could just be exported as a moped. There's a reason you don't see any Chinese branded cars or motorcycles from Ali express personally imported driving around in western countries but you see heaps of ebikes as there are much less regulations regarding import and export.
