Tang Fangjing’s first stop was not the Consumers Association, but the Guangming District Market Supervision Bureau.
This kind of matter must first be complained to the market supervision department, because if the market supervision department imposes penalties, it will be of great help to the lawsuit, and the reasons are all clear.
At the complaint reception window, the staff member Xiao Zhou is busy sorting out the materials. It is the graduation season recently, and the number of complaints is really high.
It’s really sad that the traps are basically the same every year, but many people fall for them every year.
At this moment, someone was standing in front of the window. Xiao Zhou looked up and saw a young man carrying a handbag. He had no characteristics, but he was a big bag thief...
"This... this comrade, what's the matter with you?" Xiao Zhou asked quickly.
Tang Fangjing stepped forward and said with a smile: "Hello, my name is Tang Fangjing. I was cheated by an agency when I rented a house before, so I came to complain."
Xiao Zhou glanced at the other party's bag, then nodded and said: "Okay, you can sit down, what's going on? Which agency is it from?"
Tang Fangjing put down her handbag and smiled shyly: "It's not an agency, it's twenty-eight agencies."
"How many? Twenty-eight? Comrade, are you sure you're right?"
He has been working in the market supervision department for several years, and he has never seen such complaints before!
"Comrade, I have to tell you first. We must have some evidence for this complaint. It is impossible for you to say what you say, right? You said that so many companies have cheated you? It's impossible."
Before he finished speaking, he saw the young man opposite putting the huge handbag up, and the smile on his face became even happier: "What comrade? Here is the evidence!"
"Of course they can't all deceive me. Only one family deceived me. Here's the thing..."
"So I went through all the listings in Jingzhou City. There are more than 40,000 listings, and probably more than half of them use fake prices and fake pictures..."
"Another point is that many people reported on the platform at that time, and the evidence was very sufficient. Then, some platforms processed it very quickly, and some platforms barely processed it at all..."
This is not just a problem for the intermediary industry, various second-hand housing platforms also have big problems!
Okay, you said there is too much information and you can’t handle it, then okay, now I have sent you all the evidence, but you still don’t process it, and you can even get a result like “no violation”, then what do you say? Do you have any questions.
Tang Fangjing explained the general situation, and Xiao Zhou on the opposite side was already stunned.
To be fair, this kind of behavior of attracting traffic through fake housing listings and fake prices is extremely common, but how common is it? No one has ever done such an investigation before!
There are more than 40,000 houses. Who would be idle to investigate, but the person opposite went there.
And...Xiao Zhou was a bit bitter. He was already confused because of the taxi fare, but because of the other party's harsh words, this guy really couldn't stand it...
"Okay, Tang Fangjing, right? We need to verify your evidence first, and we will notify you in the next few days whether the case will be filed or not." Xiao Zhou thought for a while and said.
He knew very well that this would definitely be filed. Just kidding, with such abundant evidence, as long as the authenticity is verified, the case can be opened directly.
What's more, the number of complaints in the intermediary industry has surged during this period, and the regulatory authorities are also thinking about rectifying it. I just fell asleep and came to the pillow...
"Okay, but I still hope you hurry up."
After finishing speaking, Tang Fangjing picked up another handbag and turned to leave.
About half an hour later, another exclamation sounded in the office of the Handong Provincial Consumers Association.
"Xiao Tang, are you... so desperate just to get us to give you the case? But I have to tell you in advance. The legal fees are fixed, so it's only a few dollars!"
Lao Fang, a staff member of the Consumers Association, was very surprised.
This young man came to apply for a volunteer before. After all, he was somewhat famous, so he was granted the volunteer qualification. As a result, it took just over a month for the Consumers Association to organize such a big job!
The request was just to hand over the case to him...
Moreover, Lao Fang knows that this young man has terminal cancer. No one knows when this disease will disappear. It may be half a year, or it may be a year.
Looking at the pale face of the young man across from him, Lao Fang didn't believe that he was risking his life just for the legal fees. That was impossible.
If he had used this time and energy to do other things, he would have made much more money than this legal fee!
Tang Fangjing laughed when he heard this and said: "Old Fang, what you said, I must be doing it to make money. Who is working hard these days not to make money? How can it be for ideals? How much is an ideal worth?"
"Okay, how long will it take for the Consumers Association to get results?"
When Lao Fang heard this, he looked at Tang Fangjing. He really felt that he had met an idealist, otherwise there would be no reason to explain the other party's behavior.
But public interest litigation...
"You have already completed the most difficult part of evidence collection, so this lawsuit should be quick. Didn't you also complain to the market supervision department? We will try our best to cooperate with them."
Judging from Lao Fang's experience, in this case, with such detailed evidence, you can win even if you bring a dog to sue...
"Okay, let's do this for now, Lao Fang. I have to find a law firm first. I don't have a certificate yet."
Lao Fang nodded, then raised his head in confusion: "What the hell? You don't have a certificate yet? Then you put so much effort into it..."
…………
After bidding farewell to the confused Lao Fang, Tang Fangjing was ready to find a law firm. Indeed, as he said, he had to find a "master" first.
The community cannot recommend this case, nor can the Consumers Association. He is not a staff member of the Consumers Association.
Then go find it. In Tang Fangjing's mind, he still wanted to find a big law firm, at least one that was more standardized in all aspects.
Some small offices are just the director's word, and the bigger ones are smoky. Compared with them, large ones with more regulations are better.
And it has to be in Guangming District, close to the house I plan to buy.
After being ruled out in this way, a law firm named "Tengda" soon came into Tang Fangjing's sight.
This law firm is very big. The most important thing is that it is very close to Yuefu Community. You don't need to take a car, it only takes ten minutes to walk.
That's no problem. I submitted my own information first. Although my major is computer, it's a bit eye-catching, but it doesn't matter.
After submitting my resume, I went home and waited. At around 6pm, my phone rang.
"Hey, this is Tang Fangjing to me. Yes, I am a computer major. I can do well..."
Putting down the phone, Tang Fangjing looked helpless. What's wrong with this damn chain of contempt? Can't those who study computers be lawyers?
The law firm didn't reject him outright, but told him tactfully on the phone that there were a lot of internships during this period, and no one might be willing to take him, and the firm didn't support the registration of certificates.
But it doesn't matter, Tang Fangjing feels that someone will definitely take care of him.
