2021-12-17 11:36

With the rapid growth of engineering channels, engineering procurement bidding, project contracting, etc. have become more and more common, and many illegal elements have also targeted this channel for fraud.More than 20 "engineering scams" under the name of project bidding and project contracting have occurred in the past six months.

In these cases, criminal suspects often falsify engineering projects by forging government approval documents, project planning drawings and other related documents, and then collect huge bidding fees, security deposits, admission fees, registration fees, etc. .

In this kind of engineering scam, the criminal tactics of the crooks are not complicated, but out of the mentality of wanting to undertake engineering business, many dealers are still deceived. Therefore, we remind the majority of dealers to be wary of "engineering traps": before contracting engineering projects and signing contracts, they must do a good job of inspection and verification, and standardize signing behavior and payment behavior; especially do not trust the "middleman" and pay the so-called security deposit and enter the market. Fees etc.

1 Strengthen advance inspection

Before cooperation, it is necessary to pay attention to and verify the basic situation, performance ability, purpose of the contract and other matters of the contracting party, carefully distinguish the authenticity of relevant information, and focus on inspection and verification of its qualifications and economic strength.

If the contracting party is a company, it should learn from the administrative department for industry and commerce about its company's registration status, capital availability, legal representative, shareholders, etc., and fully inspect and judge whether the company has the ability to perform the contract;

If the contracting party is an individual, it must learn about the contracting party’s specific situation from multiple channels such as his work colleagues and friends according to the identity provided by him, and determine whether he has the ability to develop or contract the project.


2 Multi-party understand the authenticity of the project

Before signing the contract and paying the project deposit, it is necessary to find out whether there is the project, the bidding, cooperation, or contracting of the project from the relevant government departments as much as possible; find the project developer or general contractor to understand the project’s contracting, Subcontracting situation: find the relevant personnel on the construction site to understand the ownership of the project and the contracting situation, so as to avoid the criminals' tricks of "passing through the sea".



3 Be cautious when signing contracts and paying funds

When signing a contract, you must strictly follow the "Contract Law" and other relevant laws, carefully review the terms of the contract, and do not act perfunctorily.

Some criminal suspects used the signing of the contract to falsify, swindle the terms of the contract, not only to facilitate the deception of the property, but also to confuse the nature of the problem. Once the trick is exposed, contract disputes can be used to evade criminal responsibility.

Contracts where the agreed rights and obligations are obviously not equal (no matter which party is in favor) should be treated more cautiously, and the "privileges" given by the other party should be treated with caution, and beware of falling into the other party's trap.

During the transaction, the paid funds must be credited to a special company account.
