In recent years, many people have accumulated a certain amount of wealth as the rural population has increased to work outside the home, but as they grow older and employment opportunities diminishing, many people have begun to turn their attention to the local rural market. Today's rural areas have undergone earth-shaking changes, with convenient road transportation and universal Internet access, and people can even buy goods from all over the country without leaving their homes. In such an environment, many people choose to engage in e-commerce or brick-and-mortar business. However, a new kind of ** has emerged in the countryside recently, step by step, step by step, which makes people unguardable.
The story of a distant relative is a case in point. In order to take care of his elderly parents and young children at home, distant relatives and his spouse decided to look for a stable job in their hometown. With limited job opportunities in rural areas, they have instead opted to sell clothes. When I first started running an e-commerce business, business was sluggish, until one day, a strange netizen took the initiative to contact them and said that he wanted to buy a large number of clothes, which made distant relatives feel excited, and at the same time, they began to trust and rely on this "customer".
Distant relatives began to receive orders from this netizen one after another, and often chatted online, and the relationship between them gradually became close. On the eve of the Spring Festival, this netizen claimed that he needed to buy more clothes to expand his business, but he did not have enough funds on hand, so he asked distant relatives to help pay a deposit of 5,000 yuan first. Under the electronic contract sent by the other party, the distant relatives did not hesitate to pay the deposit and contacted the manufacturer to send goods with a total value of 300,000 yuan. Everything seems to be going well, leaving distant relatives looking forward to the future with optimism.
However, when all the goods were shipped, this originally overwhelming "customer" suddenly disappeared. Distant relatives were very confused and uneasy about this sudden change, and began to contact each other but never heard from each other. Eventually, distant relatives went to the location designated in the contract to investigate and found that the so-called store could not be found at all. Subsequently, they tried to contact the manufacturer, only to find that the address to which the goods were sent was also false. All this made distant relatives suddenly realize that they had fallen into a bottomless pit. The hard-earned money accumulated over the years was wiped out overnight, making them feel like a knife, and even the joyful atmosphere of the Spring Festival was gone.
This kind of ** is often gradualized in various ways, from initial awareness to trust-building, to substantive cooperation, all in order to let the victim relax his vigilance and unknowingly fall into it. And the details of the contract, location, etc., while crucial, are finally debunked, but by the time they are finally revealed, it is already too late. The online virtual world is already colorful and complex, once caught in the **, the deceived often have nowhere to appeal, can only bear the loss, and the vigilance is sublimated again.
Although rural entrepreneurship contains unlimited business opportunities, it also comes with many risks. While chasing wealth, we must keep a clear head, carefully observe all kinds of signs around us, and do not lose reason because of temporary interests. Especially for transactions involving large amounts of money, it is necessary to be cautious and cautious.
In the face of similar situations, we must first insist on on-site inspections to ensure the true identity and strength of the other party; Secondly, before proceeding with capital exchanges, the contract and the place of transaction should be treated cautiously to ensure their authenticity; Most importantly, always be vigilant, don't trust strangers easily, and don't make payments in advance. Although the Internet era has many advantages, it also comes with risks, so it is important to remain vigilant and beware of unnecessary losses.
In real life, we are always facing all kinds of ** and traps, and this is especially true for rural e-commerce entrepreneurship. Through this new type of case, we not only need to learn from the superficial lessons, but also dig deep into the deep reasons behind them. Only the best desire and greed, adhere to the principle of integrity and prudence, in order to be invincible in the business world.
In short, in the face of an unknown adventure, every step needs to be treated with caution, pay attention, and always be vigilant. Only under the premise of adhering to principles and working steadily can we avoid step-by-step action, keep ourselves away from risks, and achieve long-term development of our careers.
