New in China? Don't let a scam be your welcome gift 🚨 Many of us learned these the hard way. Here's what to watch for: 1️⃣ "Agents" who want a big deposit before you've seen the house. View it in person, and only pay against a signed contract. 2️⃣ Suppliers whose prices are far below everyone else's. Visit the shop or factory, or use a trusted agent, before you pay. 3️⃣ Anyone offering a "special visa" or work permit shortcut. Only trust official channels. 4️⃣ Strangers asking you to receive money or parcels for them. Say no. 5️⃣ Fake currency exchange deals on WeChat. Use banks or trusted platforms. 6️⃣ Pressure to "pay now or lose the deal." Real deals can wait a day. When in doubt, ask people who live here. On Hafrik you can check a business or ask your city Space before you send a single yuan. Stay safe, and share this with someone new 🙏 #Hafrik #AfricansInChina #ScamAlert #NewInChina
