many skimmers, scammers, and employee exploiters which make up the three big 3
categories of those who join our blacklist every year. The list was getting smaller
year by year but this year we saw the explosion of many new alias names for the old
veteran scammers like the notorious Rebecca Tang (affectionately known as the The
Wicked Witch Of The East) who now calls herself by many different names
depending on whom she is speaking (She is either now Rosie, Ruby, or Rose Tang)
and her old China ESL scam company gave birth to 14 different alias companies
listed below. In reality just 8 people account for 90% of the TEFL scams in China
but these 8 people are cunning chameleons always changing their company names.
But while the cat and mouse charades continue and the China Scam Patrol exposes
the name games, we urge you all just to ask 7 basic questions to any potential
employer and/or job agents, FAOs, or TEFL recruiters you come across. And within
10 minutes of asking these questions by phone or email, you will know if you are
dealing with honest or dishonest players in China. Here are the seven questions to
ask and they are based on the graphic on page 5 below which is taken from the
http://opnlttr.com/letter/china-esl-tefl-teacher-school-recruiter-blacklists-name-389-sc
am-artists
You will not find a quicker nor cheaper way to do due diligence in China (it’s free!).
Those who dance around the questions or try to bash China Scam Patrol are those
listed below on this blacklist or probably in que for investigation. Those who can
provide the requested information straight away are the real deal IF you take the time

To be sure there still are some honest head hunters in China but they work for
licensed agencies like Hays, Mercer, Marsh, etc. They have real offices with
dozens of employees. Those that exist only in cyberspace with (or without) a
website and business license should be avoided. Many are identity thieves. Read
this before you send out a single resume for a China job
http://chinascamwatch.wordpress.com.
Now that you see the minefield in front of you in China, here is your map of mines
to avoid unless you like costly and unpleasant surprises. Remember , China does
not have a BBB, FTC, and their FBI (Public Security Bureasu or PSB) really don’t
care much about transient foreigners getting ripped off. In fact, some of them are
amused by it all. They openly call expat fraud victims “dumb idiots” and joke about
the victims in Chinese. But if a victim is a local just watch them swarm!

Never forget the 90% rule about expat employment in China…
“90% of China’s employers are honest, fair, and ethical, but 90%
of the China job agents and recruiters are not!”

BTW… From time to time you will see someone online bashing
the CFTU and making some false allegations (never any evidence
or proof provided) in an effort to smear or discredit our volunteer
group now operating 8 years in China. Keep in mind the source of

You may find this hard to believe but 80% of the employment
contracts foreign expats are asked to sign in China are illegal
according to China Labor laws. They actually ask you to sign a
contract that forfeits your 15 employee rights and privacy
guaranteed by law in China. Do not sign the first contract you
are given, even if you are told “Everyone signs this standard
contract.” That is horse manure friends. Read these links and
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS AS AN EMPLOYEE IN CHINA SO YOU
ARE NOT EXPLOITED or used as a “marketing monkey”.

The last link below will give you the rest of our blacklist from our
website. But before you leave, we suggest you bookmark and
read these links here when you have time so you can learn the
truth about China expat salaries. In 2017 the average veteran
TEFL teacher in China earned a monthly average of 18,000 rmb.
Only newbie teachers earn less than 15,000 per month due to
their own ignorance. The more you learn the more you earn!
