It appears that China is full of deceptive crooks, but of course are we surprised? Our company learned the hard was as well. Fortunately for only a couple of hundred dollar lesson. Now when we deal with anyone from China they must pay $ 100 to be added to our "Approved Supplier List" and supply a small sample of components before we would think of transferring any funds. This gets rid of the scam artist in one email response. The scam artist used the information below. - BORRISON ELECTRONICS(HK )CO., LIMITED contacted us from an inquiry on Alibaba on purchasing ICs. They provided pricing and formal documents. There is a company named Borrison that sells IC's in HK. They had us transfer funds to the bank account below. Once they had the funds they stopped responding.
