So Heres the Fraud
You Call XYZ Imports
Mr. ABC says picks up the phone we charge minimum importing charges import thru us
You Say
How much do u charge ?
Mr. ABC
We just charge PKR 15,000, you can check nationwide we offer lowest rates etc etc others charge 45,000
so whats the Fraud
so ur new to importing field u dont know whats the usual freight that should be charged from Japan to Karachi.
Fraud Starts Here
so u dont know much about freight etc.
they charge u freight 150,000 yen
u wont usually ask them as u think thats his cost
but if ur freind says yar freight tu 110,000 diya tha maen nae
u call Mr. ABC he says bhai jan humaray garrian bohat ahci shipping line sae aati haen jaldi, achi tarhan pack hoti haen aur container maen sirf 3 garrian aati haen loggon ki 5 aati haen (doesnt every1 say that ?)
and what proof does he have ?
None obviously
but now ur cant argue he will just say bhai thats my cost
so 150,000 + 15,000 = 165,000 pkr
where as a practical importer who is being honest will say
freight
110,000 + 45,000 = 155,000 pkr
so ur paying the guy who charges 15,000 more than the guy who is being honest and charges 45,000
the Guy pays Freight 110,000 in japan and charges u 150,000
Makes 40,000 from freight and 15,000 from u so makes 55,000 pkr
the honest guy has to listen hundreds of complaints and criticisms u charge so much etc and yet makes no more than 45,000 pkr.
ur paying him more,
ur damaging honest businessmen and helping out the frauds
& then u recommend that guy to ur friend bcz he charges less.
Piece of Cake Fraud for Mr. ABC
