A major Chinese telecoms company is suspected of scamming customers in Changsha City, a metropolis located in central China’s Hunan Province. Meanwhile, local media and authorities have turned a blind eye to their misfortunes.
According to 212 victims, since 2012, a manager surnamed Hu working at the Changsha branch of China Telecom has been promoting an investment package whereby customers could put down deposits in advance into the company’s bank account, and in return, receive the latest model of the Apple iPhone along with their deposits back, in a few months time.
