Jiang Qin reached out and took away the only meat dish on the table, turned around and turned on the computer, completely ignoring the beautiful Chinese quintessence behind him.
In other words, they once sold discount coupons on their own website, and then exchanged a sum of money and it was gone immediately.
Last August, before major websites raised funds, the companys number of employees once reached 2,300, and the number of members exceeded 8 million.
It was only in the third round that capital did not continue to be optimistic about him, causing his development to slow down.
However, it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity of online news, and Jiang Qin did not believe it all, and he has been searching for early news on .

Merchants that cooperated with saw the news and immediately announced that they would unilaterally terminate their cooperation and no longer recognize their coupons.
This incident caused quite an uproar at the time, but was quickly suppressed.

You dont have to say it, of course its true! Cao Guangyu slapped the table.
Then you still say Mr. Jiang is showing off?
Im just so **** angry because its true, and it doesnt bother me if its false!
Jiang Qin laughed twice, then copied the WeChat group account in the post and joined it.
Many rights defenders have already joined the group, and they are talking in the quintessence of Chinese culture in the group. Their voices to defend their rights are extremely loud. Even if you suddenly send a pornographic picture into the group, you may not be able to interrupt their curses.

Perhaps this will happen to more websites in the future. Consumers need to choose carefully and not be blindly greedy for cheap.
The words of the expert are not just directed at Tuanbao.com, but at the entire group buying industry, and these words will inevitably arouse the vigilance of consumers.
So in the following days, several leading group buying websites issued statements one after another, claiming that funds were sufficient and there would be absolutely no accidents.
But the seeds of doubt have been sown, and sometimes it cannot be solved in a few words. The liar will not tell you directly and clearly that he is a liar from the beginning.
As a result, many people who like to hoard coupons have begun to refund their coupons. Even the website business of Pintuan, which has been constantly marketing the image of integrity, has been affected and received a large number of coupon refund applications.
The amount of these chargebacks is huge, and together they are enough to make a website of the size of Lashou.com go bankrupt. As a result, all group buying websites have become a little nervous.
