Ecommerce Fraud
1) Company (with funding and wanting to raise more) signs up a trusted supplier (say phone/tablet supplier)
2) Supplier orders expensive gadgets through fake accounts as a customer
3) He is both the supplier & customer (transaction happening thru e-commerce site)
4) Once he supplies, he gets a small payment from ecommerce company for discounting
5) Ecommerce company gets additional revenue (in some case high magnitude and no. of transactions)
6) Ecommerce company please investors by showing this added revenue and raises much more money at much higher valuations
Please get Enforcement Directorate and others to investigate this asap. I am also reporting this in corruption circle. If this keeps going and gets figured out much later it will cause irrepairable damage to start up india and entrepreneurs of the country. more
