None of that makes much sense to me. Seems like someone posts it is a scam (without any evidence to support the claim), then another person (
[email protected] ) claims they can tell you if the supplier is real or not (why should you trust them??), then a furniture company posts? Confusing.
I can't even tell if that website is in any way legit:

So here's the thing, I really can't advise you that these sites are legit but I can't say they are scams either. There are literally hundreds and thousands of these Chinese sites on the internet -- they all can't be legit, but they aren't automatically fake either. So ask yourself these questions:
1. Is the offer too good to be true? The price is significantly lower than anywhere else? They are making impossible claims? Then it is most likely a scam or sham.
2. How do you have to pay for it? WU/MG? Run the other way! This is just like handing cash to a stranger. Don't do it as you have no recourse to get your money back. PayPal or other online fund transfer? Make sure it is a legitimate service and has been around for a long time. Also make sure you are dealing with the legitimate site and not a scammer's fake site with the same (or similar) name. Always make sure you have a way to get your money back if the transaction goes sideways.
3. Until you are comfortable doing business with a new-to-you company online, don't give them more money than you are willing to lose.
So sorry I can't be more helpful. I don't see anything about these sites to say they are a scam, but I can't endorse them either. I know this -- I wouldn't give them any of my money without some evidence somewhere that they are legit besides Alibaba. IMHO (not reflecting the views of Scamwarners or anyone else), Alibaba has more scammers than legitimate businesses and I wouldn't deal with most of them ever.
And I am sorry you were previously scammed. That sucks. But you have obviously learned your lesson and that is very important.
