Uncovering Fake Invoice Scams Behind Billions in Freight Fees on Online Logistics Platforms

  • Yunshidi Technology Development Co., Ltd. was found to have fabricated freight business and issued/accepted fake VAT invoices worth over 31.5 billion RMB between 2020 and 2022.
  • The company’s input invoices were almost entirely for fuel, with no normal expenses like tolls or repairs, raising suspicion.
  • Investigations revealed fake contracts, inconsistent business records, and falsified transport data; funds were quickly funneled back to the company’s legal representative.
  • Authorities have arrested 6 main suspects, transferred 379 downstream companies for further investigation, and the case is under trial at Xi’an Intermediate People’s Court.
