I appreciate the fact that you are informing people of the scam.

If your passport is old and worn out, I think you can apply to get a new passport for free at any
American consulate. I'm 99% sure about that, but give them a call to find out.










roddy -

I'm sorry, but if this is actually happening and your passport is in as bad a state as you make it
sound then
a) You need to inform the consulate so they know what's happening, they will liase with the local
police, and if deemed necessary they'll send out a travel advisory. You are not the only one this
will happen to.
b) IF your passport actually looks 'tampered' with, that's possibly the kind of thing immigration
officials are going to pick up on and you need to get a new passport. Again, consulate. I don't
even want to think about what happens to someone who turns up at US immigration with a dodgy
looking US passport.

If you want to save yourself some richly-deserved embarassment then yeah, tell them it went
'missing' or that they borrowed it for some other, legitimate, purpose.

Roddy
PS. I very rarely say this, but you should also just give up and go home. You're not enjoying
yourself.










necroflux -

I don't know that you can quite tell him that he's not enjoying himself, but he's obviously
ill-equipped to live in China based on his post.. I thought I might be lacking in "street smarts",
but to fall for something like this in a completely foreign country is just ridiculous, let alone
coming to a forum afterwards to ask how he can get even. And to call these guys "chinese business
men"? Clueless.

To answer some questions. First of all my friend is on a student visa. They needed a Z visa.
Second of all this guy from America is American and I knew him for 4 years prior and so I trusted
him because he was one of the few people that I hang out with in China AND America. It wasn't him
who actually screwed me over it was the person he gave it to who did that. My former friend speaks
perfect Chinese so most situations he knows what he was doing. Before he actually help me land a
good job. The reason why I am so pissed is because my former friend is not lifting a finger to do
anything about it. It's like he's choosing guanxi over his friend. I want to get them back.

And AEON F**K U!
I hate people who talk shit over the net.
Don't be a heckler
be a help if not shut the F**K up.
ran-ran










ask_weasal -

Excuse me sorry for that outburst but some of you obviously are a bit immature. Without knowing
the whole story some of you are quick to judge someone like any of you haven't had bad luck. Why
am I making 3000 yuan a month because I used to make 10'000 a month working at two schools until
one greedy school informed the other that I was working for two schools at the same time so
POOF!!!!! a 7000 yuan job is lost because one school couldn't handle me working for another school
even though they only give me six hours a week. 2005 was a very bad year for me. Everyone has
these in their lives I think. So necroflux or whatever your name is don't talk about me like I am
in the third person. You can at least give me that respect. Have I ever insulted you or Aeon? No
so don't do that to me. This is a constructive website if you are going to talk stupid like that
then lets deconstruct this website by being assholes together, because I won't stop until you stop.

Bottom line
Show Respect...I'm a lot less clueless than you think










necroflux -

I was a bit of a prick, and I apologize for addressing you as a third person. But I think with the
last three posts pretty much serve to reiterate your level of maturity.

My advice is that you got burned, let it go. Obviously this guy isn't a friend so after perhaps
asking him to compensate you for your loss (unlikely as that may be) I wouldn't ever talk to him
again.

If you truly are sorry, you can use the edit function to undo that outburst.

In the meantime, I agree that aeon's post was not constructive. So instead of trashing Randall for
something he can't change anymore, we maybe can return to giving him advise what to do about his
passport and help prevent things like this happening in the future. (BTW, third person because I'm
not adressing you, Randall, on this one, as I think was the case with necroflux as well; he seemed
to be replying to roddy)
