China is home to 389 known scams that target foreigners with a variety of scams. Some will cause you to lose less than $500 while Gi2c and Getin2China (their sister company) will add an extra 0 to that amount!

Indeed their website is first class, appealing to the eye, and tells you everything you want to hear. But what it doesn’t tell you is the truth. What is the truth? Well to begin with Gi2c is an alias scam brand owned by a Russian fellow known both as Yuri and Sergei Khlystov, the latter of which is a wanted fugitive in Belarus since 2005 for a variety of frauds according to scam.com.

Although customers are spoon fed a continuous stream of video testimonials and reviews, they are fabricated and made with paid shills. The company was previously known as Getin2China and also operates as Laowai Career Center, and all these companies have been blacklisted by China Scam Patrol, the CTA, CFTU, and CSW.
