If you pay attention to the content in the "News Center" on the Yuncang Department Store website, you will find many problems. The announcement published on August 25, 2015 with the title "Announcement on the Business Standards of the Yuncang Department Store Market" is titled "Middle Ages Trading" Published in the name of a limited liability company.
Let’s check this company. We can check the relevant information of this company in the "National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity System" on the website of the Heilongjiang Provincial Bureau of Industry and Commerce.
Note that there is a red part at the top of the query results. The content above is: Qiqihar Zhonggu Trading Co., Ltd.?, unified social credit code/registration number: 230202100033108?, "This enterprise has been included in the directory of abnormal operations." Looking again, the announcement published on March 23, 2015 in the "News Center" of the Yuncang Department Store website was titled "Announcement on Yuncang Department Store City and County-Level Agency Charges", but the signature became "Qiqihar Yuncang Department Store Co., Ltd. Corporate Administration Department”.
Then let’s take a look at "Qiqihar Yuncang Department Store Co., Ltd." and query through the "National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity System" on the website of the Heilongjiang Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce. The query results show that the business scope of this company is within It’s not even close to “e-commerce”, let alone B2C or C2C models!
Let us continue to look at the news center of the "Yuncang Department Store" website. On August 11, 2014, an announcement was issued with the title "Yuncang Department Store's new domain name is officially launched". The announcement stated that ""Yuncang Department Store" "The domain name of the online platform with the same name completed the ICP registration with the Communications Administration Bureau of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology on August 6, 2014."
The website ICP registration license number displayed at the bottom of the Yuncang Department Store website is: Ji ICP No. 11018140?, we can go to the "Ministry of Industry and Information Technology ICP/IP Address/Domain Name Information Registration Management System" on the website of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to query this registration license number. The query results show that this registration license number is associated with The company is "Langfang Yuncang E-Commerce Co., Ltd.", the name of the website associated with this registration license number is not called "Yuncang Department Store", and the "website homepage URL" is also inconsistent with the registration information. The ICP certificate is a license for website operation. According to the national "Internet Information Services Management Measures", commercial websites must apply for an ICP certificate, otherwise it will be illegal operation. The website registration information does not match the actual situation, so we can judge whether the website "Yuncang Department Store" is an illegal website!
Pay attention to the serial number 4 in the query results. When you open it, you will find a store called "Lvyun Department Store". The interface is almost the same as before the Yuncang Department Store was revised, but the color has been changed. After checking it, I found that its operation model is almost the same as that of Yuncang Department Store. People who work in Luyun Department Store can also read this post.
Regarding the ICP registration/license of the website, you must go directly to the website of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to check. I have found that other ICP registration inquiry websites are fraudulent. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology’s is the most authoritative and authentic. , so remember to check the ICP filing system on the website of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. The detailed method of querying using the ICP registration/domain name information management system of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is as follows:
(1). You can directly enter the website address or search for the keyword "Welcome to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology ICP/IP" through Baidu The first one with the V3 logo in the search results for "Address/Domain Name Information Registration Management System" is the ICP/IP address/domain name information registration management system of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
(2). After entering the webpage, click "Public *** Query" at the bottom of the webpage.
(3) After entering the ICP/IP address/domain name information registration management system, click "Registration Information Query" on the left, and you can pass "website name, website domain name, website homepage URL, registration/license" Certificate number, website IP address, organizer name" and other ways to query.
Does this website belong to Qiqihar? Or is it from Langfang? If it is from Qiqihar, then the ICP registration/license number at the bottom of the website should start with the word "black". "Black ICP registration number XXXXXXXX" belongs to Heilongjiang Province, and the ICP registration/license number displayed at the bottom of the website It starts with "Ji" and belongs to Hebei Province. However, the URL associated with the registration license number "Ji ICP No. 11018140" is not the URL of "Yuncang Department Store". Do you think this phenomenon is normal? ? So far, the name "Yuncang Department Store" has been involved in three companies. Which company does it belong to? Are you clear? Can you figure it out? Looking at the company "Langfang Yuncang E-Commerce Co., Ltd.", a query was made through the "National Enterprise Credit Information Disclosure System" on the website of the Hebei Provincial Administration of Industry and Commerce. The results showed that the company's business scope is: "Online sales: electronic products, , computer supplies, household appliances, clothing, shoes and hats, handicrafts, Wujijiaodian, daily necessities, cosmetics, building materials, steel, furniture, office supplies; corporate management consulting; corporate marketing planning; etiquette and celebration services. ”
< p> "Yuncang Department Store" claims that it is an e-commerce B2C model, but is it really an e-commerce B2C model? Although the company "Langfang Yuncang E-Commerce Co., Ltd." has the words "online sales" in its business scope, I personally think that this is the business scope of this company, which means that sales throughout the entire transaction process The main party should be this company, not an individual, which is the B2C model promoted by Yuncang Department Store. To put it bluntly, it is a model in which companies face consumers through the Internet. Similar legal companies can refer to "Jingdong Mall", but currently "Cloud The model of the "Cang Department Store" shopping website is not a B2C business-to-consumer model, but a C2C model. Just like "Taobao", the company that belongs to the website only provides a network platform and technical support. The company is not a commodity owner. The seller is other merchants who have settled on the online platform, which is a person-to-person model. This can be seen from the announcement published on August 25, 2015 in the "News Center" on the Yuncang Department Store website mentioned at the beginning of the article, titled "Announcement on the Business Standards of the Yuncang Department Store Market". From this announcement Article 9 can be seen that "Yuncang members must upload a total number of products within three months from the date of successful registration; no less than 5 products must be uploaded by Yuncang promoters within three months from the date of successful registration." No less than 10 styles. "? It can be seen from this that the products on the Yuncang Department Store website are uploaded by individual users, and the sellers are individual members, not the Yuncang Department Store company. Just like Taobao, it is C2C. model, not the B2C model.We can also check the corporate information of "Beijing Jingdong Century Trading Co., Ltd." and "Zhejiang Taobao Network Co., Ltd." through the websites of the Beijing Municipal and Zhejiang Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce respectively, and compare Qiqihar Medieval Commerce and Qiqihar Cloud You may think the business scope of Cang Department Store, Langfang Yuncang Electronics, Beijing JD.com, and Zhejiang Taobao is relatively complicated, but that’s okay. Let’s look at something simple and intuitive. Let’s take a look below.
Let’s look at the most important point. Regardless of whether “Yuncang Department Store” belongs to the B2C model or the C2C model, we can find other examples for comparison. For the B2C model, we can refer to “Jingdong Mall”, and for the C2C model, we can refer to “Taobao.com”. Then you can think about it. When you register as a member on "Jingdong Mall" and "Taobao" for shopping, are you required to pay an entry fee first to obtain membership? Think carefully. Yuncang Department Store requires that members who join must invest a minimum of RMB 990 per share and can invest multiple shares. Does the money belong to the "annual membership fee"? If it is an "annual fee", then paying multiple "annual fees" should be an extension of the "membership period", year after year, right? But in reality, has your "membership period" been extended? Since you pay multiple annual fees, does the "membership period" remain unchanged, but can you get multiple static dividends? If it is in the nature of a "platform usage fee", then why do people who pay multiple copies and those who pay one use the same platform? So in reality, the "membership period" remains unchanged, the "platform environment" remains unchanged, but the "profitability" changes, right? So, does this kind of behavior that requires registered members to pay funds to obtain membership status, and promotes through QQ, WeChat and other methods to promise to repay the principal and interest within a certain period of time, does it belong to the financial business of "absorbing funds from unspecified objects in society"? Behavior?
So let’s take a look? Do the three companies Qiqihar Zhonggu Trading, Qiqihar Yuncang Department Store, and Langfang Yuncang Electronics have “financial business” in their business scope in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau system? Do these three companies have "financial licenses"? At least I didn't find any relevant information about these three companies in the "Financial License Inquiry" system in the "Online Services" column of the "China Banking Regulatory Commission"! According to the "Regulations on Prohibition of Pyramid Selling", pyramid selling refers to the organizer or operator developing personnel by calculating and paying remuneration to the developed personnel based on the number of people or sales performance they directly or indirectly develop, or requiring the developed personnel to Obtaining illegal benefits by paying a certain fee to obtain membership qualifications, disrupting economic order, and affecting social stability. ?
One characteristic of MLM is that you cannot join on your own. You must have an upline, and then submit an order and pay money through him to qualify, so that he can get a commission on the money you pay. Then we will give you a commission based on the performance of your downline development. Think about it carefully, does the "dynamic" of Yuncang Department Store meet these characteristics? Can you register for free on your own? Does being a "dynamic" company give you a commission based on your performance in developing downline products? If it meets this characteristic, is it a pyramid scheme? Be careful if your downlines come to you for money after the collapse. Don’t think that no one cares about online pyramid schemes. Be careful of being sentenced!
According to the "Interpretation of the Supreme People's Court on Several Issues Concerning the Specific Application of Law in the Trial of Criminal Cases of Illegal Fund-raising" Law Interpretation [2010] No. 18
Article 1: Violation of national financial management laws and regulations , if the act of absorbing funds from the public (including units and individuals) meets the following four conditions at the same time, unless otherwise provided in the criminal law, it shall be deemed as "illegal absorption of public deposits or "Absorbing deposits from the public in disguised form":
(1) Absorbing funds without the legal approval of relevant departments or using the form of legitimate operations;
(2) Through the media, promotion meetings, leaflets, mobile phones Publicly publicize to the public through text messages and other means;
(3) Commitment to repay principal and interest or pay returns within a certain period of time in the form of currency, kind, equity, etc.;
(4) To The public, that is, the unspecified objects of society, absorb funds.
Absorbing funds from relatives, friends or within the unit for specific targets without publicity to the public does not constitute illegal absorption or disguised absorption of public deposits. Think about it carefully, is this behavior of requiring members to pay money to join a fund-absorbing behavior? Has it received approval from relevant departments to absorb funds? Has it absorbed funds from unspecified social objects through online media, promotion meetings, QQ, WeChat, etc.? Does it promise to make static daily rebates and repay principal and interest within one year? If these characteristics are met, is it illegal fundraising? Can your legitimate rights and interests be protected if you participate in an illegal fund-raising project? If one day the company runs away, who should you go to? Who else can you find?
