Wayfair is suing suppliers, saying it was the victim of a ‘fraudulent scheme’ – NBC Boston

Boston-based Wayfair Inc. is suing three of its furniture suppliers and two of its operators, claiming they devised and put into practice “a system” to receive additional payments from the online retailer.

Attorneys representing Wayfair filed the complaint in the Superior Court for Suffolk County Business Litigation Session on Nov. 23.

“This is more than a simple infringement action,” the complaint reads. “This case also involves an elaborate fraudulent scheme devised and implemented by the defendants to defraud Wayfair.”

The case is against suppliers Rosevera Corp., Mulhouse Furniture Corp. and Fully Wind Co.Ltd. as well as against former President and CEO of Rosevera and Vice President of Fully Wind Ping Hua “Eric” Hsu and Mulhouse employee Tzu Ju “Jennifer” Huang.

The complaint identifies both Rosevera and Mulhouse as California residents and Hsu and Huang as California residents. Fully Wind is based in Hong Kong.
