The not so obvious China scam.

I just read about somebody complaining about a China supplier breaking up communication after receiving the money for a metals trade. Having a look at their website, and then checking what sites are hosted on the same IP I saw quite a few companies that are designed by the same pattern, and most are registered around beginning of 2013, and for one year only:

China trading scams getting more and more into all sort of niche markets and the scams are getting harder to detect.

I can see why trade fairs are getting more visitors in the recent years with that large increase in China scams.
