What are the risks of group buying websites? Tell me about them.

Group buying is a buzzword now, but you should also pay attention to preventing risks when buying a group. Experts can teach you how to prevent fraud. Goods and services have shrunk by several hundred yuan, movie tickets have been settled by tens of yuan, and several thousand yuan of catering packages, hairdressing and photo shoots can also be won at 50% discount ... Online group buying seems to have saved a lot of money for netizens, but the steak in the package may be "slimming", the beauty service may be "cutting corners", and taking photos may cost more diplomatic money ... Many tricks hidden in online group buying are emerging. In June this year, more than 10,000 netizens bought game coins from a game club in Beijing on a famous website. When I came to the club with game coins in August, I found that the merchants had already gone to the building. A spokesman for the Municipal Consumers Association said that group buying websites are not providers of goods and services. When the provider violates the relevant contract terms, the group buying website cannot bind the provider in time, which leads to the failure to protect the rights and interests of consumers. In addition, some consumers find that group buying websites can no longer log in after group buying, and some group buying websites simply "disappear". Some young consumers report that they only want to buy cheaply, but they don't notice that websites and businesses simply don't mention issues such as "coupon use period and limited store use". The reporter of Morning Post learned that in the analysis and publicity of consumer complaints released by the Municipal Administration for Industry and Commerce and the Municipal Consumers Association at the end of August, group purchase consumption has become a hot spot of recent complaints. Complaints mainly involve delayed mailing of goods purchased by operators, declining quality of goods or services, merchants' refusal to accept services purchased by consumers, and refusal to provide goods or services according to group purchase instructions.

In order to set the threshold and restrain the chaos in the group buying market, the group buying website applying for certification must fill in the relevant materials truthfully. It is reported that this is the first regulatory measure aimed at the emerging e-commerce model of group buying in China, which indicates that the group buying industry has entered an era of "well-documented". At present, the specific content of the detailed rules has not been released. At the same time, China's first "E-commerce Credit Certification Rules" will be issued soon, and the certification targets include e-commerce websites and websites. Among them, the group buying websites that have attracted much attention will become the primary object of this rule. It is reported that the certification rules will be promulgated and implemented at the end of 1 1. Original address:. net/kxwg/kxwg38.html
