User Experience:
The supposed sales manager is Alina Lin. Alina contacted me by email after I had posted a buying request on Alibaba.com. She emailed me a price list. When I inquired about products she sent me a proforma invoice December 1st 2015. The delivery would be made by DHL.

The invoice asked for payment by Western Union. The payee was XIAOTING NING and payment was sent December 3rd 2015.
After my inquiry about where my order was, I was informed that it was sent by China Post by mistake. On further inquires I was given a tracking number which subsequently, China post informed me was invalid. After making a phone call, I was emailed a reply, that it has been sent by China Post and they are slow. On further emails there have been no replies anymore. No goods have ever arrived.

User Recommendations:
I stupidly believed that I was transacting a trust worthy business contract. I have since learned that this Chinese company is a scam.
They in fact do not exist. They have a registered website and with all contacts going to Alina Lin. She has successfully scammed me and has scammed other people as well. Do not contact the so called company Shenzhen Globalwhoesalesexport co., Limited.
