Shunlihe Trading Limited Infinity-Electron.com Infinity-Electronic.com Their website looks totally legit - you order something and they require wire transfer only - after you pay they say they have to confirm receipt of the funds. Then when enough time has lapsed and you reach out to them, they never respond - they have your money but don't send the electronic chips promised Central

We found electronic components we needed on their website. We requested a quote which they gave. They told us in order to complete the purchase they required payment up front. No credit cards - electronic fund transfer only. The company banking information for the wire was different from the Website company information, but this isn't all that unusual with international business so we didn't question it. We wired the money and emailed the "sales person" that the wire had been sent.

He responded that he needed to get confirmation of wire receipt before he could send the components. After a couple days had passed (plenty of time to confirm wire receipt), we emailed again - no response. Next day we emailed again - no response. Unfortunately it was now the weekend.  On Monday we emailed again. Again no response. At this point we began doing research and stumbled across a site saying "Infinity-Electronic.hk" is a fraudulent business. This didn't exactly match the company we were dealing with, but it was close enough that we reached out to our bank and alerted them to the problem. They are trying to help, but we're not holding our breath.

Front end companies/websites are easy to change and they come and go - but the back end corporation linked to the bank account is not so easy to change. This is why I listed SHUNLIHE TRADING LIMITED as the company name here. This Hong Kong corporation was formed in 2019 and is "legit" according to Honk Kong business licensing requirements. It's this back end money receiving company that everyone needs to be alerted to. They're the company that's actually stealing your funds.
