How to avoid scammers on Alibaba International

1. For large-value orders, it’s best to visit the factory in person to verify its production capacity. If an on-site visit isn’t feasible, arrange third-party pre-shipment inspection; this effectively cuts most transaction risks.

​

2. Always complete payments via the official platform. Never conduct offline transactions for first-time cooperation, as offline payments leave you without platform protection.

​

3. Compare suppliers from multiple aspects. Be wary of offers priced 40% below the market average. Extremely low pricing usually implies counterfeit goods or fraud: you chase their low prices, while fraudsters target your full payment.
