Beware in China: Hawkers use 'tea' samples to knock out unsuspecting tourists?

Some shady hawkers in China are apparently using 'tea' samples, among other items, to knock out unsuspecting tourists, so that they can rob the foreigners or harvest their organs.

STOMPer Alex doubts that this warning being circulated online is true, but he says that there is no harm to be cautious overseas.

Said the STOMPer:

"Someone sent me this; I'm not sure of its authenticity but no harm to be cautious.

"Do heed this advice given when u visit China.

"Public Security Bureau reminder: If someone approaches you on the road, to sell you Fujian Tie Guan Yin (a type of chinese tea) or dried seafood, and asks you to smell the sample, don't do it.

"It's not tea and probably a odourless drug to knock you out, so that they can rob you or harvest your organs. It is happening in Guangdong, Hebei, Tianjin and Heilongjiang, Chengdu, Shenzhen, Dongguan areas.

"Please be careful!"

I won't be surprised. When it comes to innovative ways to cheat, steal, harm or rob without remorse china truly are the champs. When china open up, although many are alleviated from poverty but along them are evil people who have been released, worse are even those ordinary ones harbour selfish uncivil ill intentions. The world has become less safe place. Do spread this information to your love ones.

@CrazyFizzy4141 Woh! Please don't compare them with animals that's really insulting the animal species. This heartless scums will do anything for $$$. Anyway not to worry the tea will find it's way here don't have to go there. Have you forgotten "The Rise Of Chinapore" we're getting there. Though they may have extremely scenic landscapes some are truly breathtaking. I'll take my breathtaking moments elsewhere but i think some Ah Kong's and Ah Ma's are still making their Final Destination plans there. Ignorant and stubborn as always i think these ppl should be safe coz spare parts already over use so they may not want and should be safe i think.
