It is definitely a happy event for the God of Wealth to come to the door. Many people will also invite the God of Wealth to come to the house and worship it in the shop to bless themselves to make a fortune. However, when the unexpected god of wealth came to the door, many people found that they had been cheated.
A few days ago, Mr. Zhang, who is engaged in catering business in Shapingba University Town, received a statue of God of Wealth from Yuantong Express, and paid 39 yuan on delivery. What embarrassed Boss Zhang was that Wood God of Wealth was not only rough in workmanship, but also failed to find a refund from the seller, and Yuantong refused to take responsibility for this matter. "I don’t care about this 39 yuan, but it’s really annoying!" Boss Zhang was very helpless and called the Chongqing Evening News 24-hour news hotline 966988 to complain.
This edition of the manuscript Chongqing Evening News reporter Wen Han’s photo report
The god of wealth didn’t invite himself.
On the morning of 14th, Chongqing Evening News reporter contacted Zhang Boss. Boss Zhang introduced that he runs a barbecue restaurant in the University Town of Shapingba District. Usually, there is a courier, and he usually signs for it at a nearby grocery store.
"On the 13th, the clerk received a landline phone call, saying that the store received a cash on delivery courier and needed to pay 39 yuan. The money was not too much, the clerk didn’t care, and gave money to take the courier back to the store, only to find that something was wrong. " Boss Zhang said.
The Chongqing Evening News reporter saw that this express parcel is unique in that the outer package only contains the recipient information, that is, the address, store name and telephone number of Boss Zhang’s restaurant, and there is neither the recipient’s name nor the sender’s name, address and contact information. There are only three words in the order information: the god of wealth arrives.
Open the courier, and there is a wooden god of wealth with a height of about 20 cm and a weight of about 500 grams. At the foot of the wooden god of wealth, the words "the god of wealth arrives" are also written.
At first, the clerk heard that the boss received a god of wealth, and everyone was happy: "I’m going to make a fortune!" "
Bought the bill in a daze
It’s a pleasure for the god of wealth to arrive, but looking at the appearance of the wooden god of wealth, the workmanship is rough and it is impossible to take it out and put it up, and everyone becomes a little dumbfounding.
Boss Zhang didn’t order this thing and asked the store. Everyone said they didn’t buy the God of Wealth. Boss Zhang is a little unhappy: "it’s impossible to say how much the loss is, but I always feel cheated." With the materials and workmanship, this god of wealth plus the courier fee is simply not worth 39 yuan. No one in the store buys it. It should be that unscrupulous merchants make people pay the bill through express delivery. "
Boss Zhang said that because there was no business information on the express parcel, he could only call the official phone of Yuantong to complain. After several transfers, the person who answered the phone claimed to be a non-tact person.
A series of events made boss Zhang and the shop assistants feel that the courier company had some connection with the sender of the God of Wealth. What it is, they can’t say. "I don’t necessarily want to recover this 39 yuan, but I want to let more people know and avoid falling into the same trap … …” Boss Zhang said.
The investigation by Chongqing Evening News reporter found that there were many people who suffered from the same kind of cash on delivery in 39 yuan as Mr. Zhang.
Like Mr. Zhang, the paid recipient did not make online shopping, or the courier refused to inspect the goods. In the end, the recipient had no choice but to give money, only to find that the value of the goods received (mostly cosmetics and skin care products) was much lower than that of 39 yuan.
Express companies are divided into high
On the same day, Chongqing Evening News reporter dialed the telephone number of customers in Shapingba District of Yuantong. The staff of work number 664477 said that Yuantong Express is only a third-party delivery company. If the consignee has signed for it, Yuantong can’t handle it.
The staff also revealed that there are many similar cash on delivery couriers in Yuantong. The sender’s surname is Chai, and the address is Longyan City. Although it is not written on the courier list, it can be found on the intranet.
For the staff member’s statement, the Chongqing Evening News reporter said that it was unacceptable and asked her for a phone number of the relevant person in charge.
Next, the Chongqing Evening News reporter contacted Mr. Song, the person in charge of the University Town area in Shapingba District of Yuantong. The other party said that he had handled many similar incidents. In many cases, after receiving the goods, consumers were looking for Yuantong to wrangle and even went to the police station. Now, many couriers are afraid of wrangling when they see this cash on delivery package. "We have all reflected to the above, and those whose signing rate is less than 90% should not cooperate in the future. I can only reflect this situation to the above. If I can solve it, I will not be the manager of the university town. " Manager Song said.
"As far as I know, similar to cash on delivery express delivery, both the company and the delivery merchant share the benefits, and the courier fee charged is higher than that of normal express delivery. Is this the case?" Chongqing Evening News reporter asked.
"Right. We have to share it, and the head office also has a share. There is a handling fee for collecting money. " Manager Song replied.
Postal Service: This is a new type of scam.
How to explain the similar phenomenon? Chongqing Evening News reporter interviewed the staff of EMS in Jiulongpo District. The other party said that 39 yuan’s cash on delivery, like cosmetics, is a new type of scam conducted by unscrupulous merchants after obtaining consumers’ personal information.
According to the EMS staff, according to the relevant regulations, when collecting cash on delivery express, the recipient can check the opening first, and if it is found to be damaged or not purchased by himself, it has the right to refuse. If your family likes to buy similar goods online, you should call your family to confirm and avoid being cheated.
According to industry insiders, similar to the cash on delivery scam, some courier companies play a gray role. A large number of articles are sent, and there is a certain profit sharing with the courier company, so they often turn a blind eye to the door. Most consumers encounter similar situations, holding the psychology of self-admission of bad luck. In case of serious wrangling, the courier company will push the responsibility to the shipper.
Expert: using the psychology of hard rejection to cheat.
Yuan Zhizhong, a sociologist in Chongqing and a professor at the School of Communication, Southwest University, said that selling the God of Wealth on delivery can be regarded as a kind of accurate delivery. In view of the psychology that citizens, especially businesses, are unwilling to shut out the God of Wealth, the price is set at 39 yuan, which is not a high threshold. Because the money is not much, the consignee finds that even if he is cheated, it is an affordable amount range, and often does not pursue it. In this way, this not-so-clever trick succeeded again and again.
Yuan Zhizhong said that getting rich depends not on the blessing of the god of wealth, but on hard work. If everyone keeps a correct attitude and doesn’t blindly believe in some so-called good things, the tricks that God of Wealth has learned will have nowhere to play.
Lawyer: You can ask Yuantong for a refund.
Lawyer Chen Jiankang, a member of Chongqing Evening News Press Lawyers Group and Chongqing Zhihezhi Law Firm, said that according to the provisions of China’s Postal Law, users should clearly and accurately fill in the recipient’s name, address and postal code when posting an email. Postal enterprises shall establish and implement the inspection and acceptance system for mail according to law.
Taking boss Zhang’s experience as an example, Yuantong Company failed to fulfill the corresponding responsibility and obligation of acceptance and inspection. There is no sender information on the courier, and Yuantong Company plays the role of a merchant agent, and there is information asymmetry, which makes consumers misunderstand. Consumers can ask Yuantong Company to act as a business agent for refund and return.
Love to take advantage of petty gain is the easiest to be fooled.
Cash on delivery 39 yuan cosmetic
Last month, Ms. Li, a reader of Chongqing Evening News, received a phone call from a courier. She had a cash on delivery package, and she had to pay 39 yuan. Ms. Li got the parcel and found that there was her personal information on the courier, and the courier content was displayed as cosmetics. She didn’t buy cosmetics online, and put forward the inspection, which was rejected by the courier. After handing it over to 39 yuan, Ms. Zhao unpacked the parcel, which contained two bottles of Sanwu products without manufacturer, production date and expiration date. Call the sender, the line is busy.
Truth: Similar to the information column of cash on delivery express, cosmetics, samples, gifts and other words are generally marked. People who love petty gain are particularly gullible.
27 yuan postage for beeswax pendant
Chongqing Evening News reported that the 27 yuan beeswax was once popular in the circle of friends. The content is: friends’ wenwan shops XX Xuan and XX Zhai are newly opened. Just add a word "Good luck, congratulations on getting rich" on WeChat and forward it to friends, and you will get a natural chicken oil yellow beeswax pendant, with postage in 27 yuan and cash on delivery. On the WeChat photo, butter and oil are really cute. Many people pay the postage in 27 yuan, and all they get is plastic products. Similar routines, most of them are given wenwan ornaments for adding WeChat friends, just to make you save money.
Truth: Friends who have some common sense in literary play know that beeswax is priced by grams, and the finished natural beeswax is at least above 100 yuan per gram. Free gift of natural chicken oil yellow beeswax pendant is equivalent to a pie in the sky.
Collect 80 likes and eat for free.
Miss Li, a reader of Chongqing Evening News, experienced this incident: a crayfish shop in the main city launched a free crayfish exchange activity in the circle of friends. She managed to collect 80 praises, and when she invited her friends to have a big meal, she found that the free crayfish was not only small but also stale, which made her lose face.
Truth: store promotion means. Even, some store attendants heard that they had gathered 80 praises to eat crayfish, and they were not so enthusiastic immediately.
Forward it and you will have good luck.
The reader Mr. Luo has some friends in his circle of friends, and often sends some great gods and immortals to come down to earth, and the WeChat of Enze people is forwarded. And leave a message: forwarding the whole family’s peace, rich financial resources and all their wishes come true … … If you don’t forward the disaster, you can’t hide it … …
Truth: Psychologists say that, in fact, most people who forward this information have unpleasant things. Those who didn’t forward it didn’t have a disaster. This kind of information with the nature of kidnapping and forwarding actually takes advantage of everyone’s difficult rejection psychology.
