It is learned that recently, the Nanshan Branch of the Shenzhen Public Security Bureau issued a case report on a company in Shenzhen suspected of fundraising fraud . According to official information, the main situation is as follows: 1. Criminal coercive measures have been taken against suspects including Chen Dada, Ye Sheng, and Teng Mou, and the bank accounts of the companies and individuals involved in the case have been frozen in accordance with the law. 2. Urge all executives and employees of the companies involved in the case to come forward as soon as possible to explain the situation, actively cooperate with the police investigation, return the illegal gains, and strive to obtain lighter or more lenient treatment in accordance with the law.
It is understood that the company's full name is Hefeng (Shenzhen) Network Technology Co., Ltd. It was established in April 2023 with a registered capital of 10 million yuan. Its business scope includes import and export of goods, import and export of technology, etc. The legal representative is determined to be Chen Moumou. At the same time, Aiqicha shows that the company added a new abnormal operation information on November 14, 2023. As of the date of publication, it was found that its official website was no longer accessible. According to industry reports, the company once positioned itself as the "TikTok cross-border full-domain ecological service platform" and mentioned in official information: Hefeng Cross-border provides the entire system for TIKTOK account operations and a full set of services that run the entire process, leading more than 99% of its peers and helping Chinese companies seize the new blue ocean of TikTok's cross-border live e-commerce. Just in June this year, the company also held an event called "Cross-border Industrial and Financial Ecological Wealth Forum". However, just two months before the police notice was issued, news of the company's "collapse and escape" spread in the industry. It is learned that the company's thunderbolt incident this time is mainly due to one of its products suspected of fundraising fraud - "T-BOX Wealth Creation Box" . Hefeng Cross-border said: T-BOX customized service small box (a single unit can accommodate 3-5 TikTok accounts). The goal is to build a controllable traffic pool with a volume of 500,000+ accounts. Through the traffic black technology TikTok cloud control system, each TikTok live broadcast room is built to grab diamonds and gain income. This model claims to help members "grab diamonds" on the TikTok platform to gain profits, 100 diamonds = 1 US dollar, with a yield rate of up to 20%; at the same time, if they recommend others to invest, they can also get a share. In fact, this method is already suspected of illegal fundraising crimes. According to the police investigation, the company was found to have carried out illegal operations in two main ways: 1. Consumer rebates. Hefeng Cross-border requires consumers to purchase a certain amount of goods on its platform and promises to return a higher amount within a certain period of time. But in fact, they do not really return rebates to any consumers, but use this part of the funds to pay upper-level members or for their own operations. 2. Rewards for recruiting new members. The company also encourages consumers to recruit more downline members and provides certain rewards. This has led to a rapid increase in the number of members, but the new members have not really gained any benefits, but have become a tool for upper-level members to make money. This year, Tik Tok's rapid development in overseas markets has attracted many sellers to join the market to make money. However, faced with a completely unfamiliar overseas platform, the first step for many novices is often to find a training institution or "mentor" to guide them into the industry. Under the "high-end" packaging of these institutions, they ignore the risks and scams behind them. Hefeng Cross-border takes advantage of this information gap and gains users' trust by adopting a "pseudo-formal" appearance. It attracts users to invest under the banner of Tik Tok service provider, thereby obtaining improper benefits. We would like to remind all sellers and industry newbies that the cross-border e-commerce industry is a mixed bag. If it involves financial transactions, you must be cautious to avoid being cheated.
