Tools that Alibaba.com Provides to Help Avoid Fraud

Alibaba.com has various ways to help ensure that you can avoid scams and fraud. Let's face it.  When you have a site with millions of suppliers, if you have one tenth of one percent of bad actors, that can still produce a significant amount of harmed buyers.  And Alibaba.com is A PLATFORM for people to buy and sell.  They don't do the buying and selling. It's important to do the following to ensure that you have a good (and hopefully profitable) experience using Alibaba.com.  This includes:

1. Doing your research
2. Learning the ins and outs of using the site
3. Conducting your transaction
4. If you think you have been ripped off, going through the appeals process, and
5. As a last resort, using the Alibaba Fair Play Fund.

So start here.  It's a all about the Alibaba.com Inspection Service.  It lists inspector type, inspector background as well as (and this may be the most important information of all), Inspection History and Reviews.
