Not so Luckin now...Luckin’s not even a real word!

..is there a class action lawsuit against Luckin? Asking for a friend

Sorry but why isnt the CFO mentioned ? The CFO has ultimate responsibility. A CFO a chartered accountant or CPA. They can overrule a CEO or quit as its the law. CFO needs to see some chains & I think we will hear the truth. It's impossible the board did not know or was unaware.

Fake fake fake

sam99061414 All is fake in 🇨🇳

BidenBeatsTrump

$lk not the only one lies about their financing, look at wll what their board members done before they file bankruptcy few days ago.!! Dont you think he chinese are learing from the Americans?

Well that was dumb .

Nickel_ore Surprise? Not ChinaLies There is a saying....nothing is real in China but fraud AnywherebutChina

What’s not fake from China is the WuhanVirus

Not surprised. And that’s how China’s GDP comes from.

Chinese ppl are now very proud of this company as it managed to deceive Amercians and robbed their money. It is national pride ! Information from forums in china. This is how most Chinese think.

the only fucking not fake stuff made in China is Chinese virus!

There’re only fakes that are real in China

Something affiliated with China lied… What a surprise

2049 strategy at work

China is a country full of demons.

CC themotleyfool

Lol

Now for the next round of stock market loses. Discovering all the China companies have been cooking their books. 👨‍🍳 📚

But yeah, Huawei is a totally legit company and stuff👍

China at his best...

Look up fake movie theater ticket sales in China (recent Terminator movie). The country has awful regulation. Number reporting out of there might as well be Enron standards.

Who would have thought a Chinese Company would fake their numbers 🤣 The Big Short Sequel.

Stop buying chinese! They are all liars.

It's not just China it happens here too. Business ethics are in question everywhere

So what's new? If its Chinese, expect it.

Check out this Apteo workspace with Luckin Coffee data. Past 7 Q's: * Cumulative sales 3.8B vs EBIT -3.4B * of stores grew +13x, sales/store +9x, customers/store +4x * Sales/customer grew +2.3x while items per trip +75% LuckinCoffee $LK $SBUX fraud

Time to introduce the Chinese to SOX

What china lied. That hasn't happened in *checks watch* seconds

That name though...something's fishy...🤔😆

“I am shocked, shocked that gambling is going on in my establishment!”

Me Chinese, me play joke...

Surprise?

First time hearing of Luckin

More lies out of China? You don't say...

Someone tell me who their auditor is pls

Perhaps they should stop giving fortune cookies with each cup of coffee?

Well when your government is completely unaccountable to the people, they can do anything they want. Case and point, the CCP.

China ALWAYS lies.

Classic China

safiranand Coffee prices will fall...

The Chinese are on a roll lol

Sounds familiar Trump TrumpAdministration Corrupt Numbnuts

And yet the SEC isn’t holding Chinese companies trading on USA exchanges, taking USA investor money, to the same audit standards as USA companies? Will this help change SEC policy on enforcement? DSjuggerud JamesGRickards Jkylebass robert_spalding

Lololo

They are still learning. Give them time they will become like US companies, 'take loss', book 'one time expenses', pay CEOs, and find a way to nicely hide the same BS. Can explain how health care sector as making Trillions while it turned out hospitals do not have masks!!!!

Oh, Jian?

What else is new...

I’m sure Xi is all smiles and congratulating the COO. “Great work!”

imagine my shock to hear China lied about something

No wonder I never trust the creative accounting. Who the hell was the audit company ensuring the data was correct? They should be held accountable too

If you buy anything from China you are stupid. This includes stocks, products, information, food, medicine anything. As a world we must move past China and isolate them just like NK.

Juicy story

Pretty sure citron was bullish on this one 😉 CitronResearch

A Chinese company lying and covering stuff up? I can’t believe it.

Poor
