Hammer! PRC platform agents illegally profiting!
It is reported that on September 21, the high-tech branch of Xi 'an Public Security Bureau received instructions: a victim in Jiangsu province met a person who claimed to be a futures trader on wechat, and downloaded a mobile investment APP after being introduced by the other party, and lost more than 30,000 yuan on the APP, and found that he was cheated.
After investigation, the police found that the company involved was an agent of the overseas PRC currency trading platform, and its main business was to promote the platform online. Relevant evidence shows that after the agent buys customer resources online, the salesman adds the customer wechat, induces the customer to register, recharge, and trade through the platform, and gradually nips the customer investment funds by earning high fees, and has made illegal profits of more than 2 million yuan. The case is currently under further investigation.
Agency industry good and bad, chaos to be rectified
For the PRC platform, this incident has undoubtedly brought no small negative impact on brand reputation.
In fact, with the continuous tightening of the market, agents that can bring customers have always been the main target of the major platforms. However, due to the lack of a reasonable screening mechanism, the trade agent industry has been mixed in recent years.
On the one hand, the platform relies on agents with strong customer resources to develop the market, and the screening conditions for other aspects will gradually relax; On the other hand, sought-after agents are eager for higher commissions, and when the platform's profits have been compressed to the extreme, unable to compromise, agents continue to increase the level of commission can be imagined. Chaos ensued.
Taking into account the impact on their own brand image, such agency industry chaos or will be paid attention to by more dealers. However, because the market has been infiltrated for a long time, this situation may take some time to improve effectively.
