  1. Foxconn EMPLOYEE accused of taking brides by ShanghaiBill · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Unless I am missing something, it looks like Foxconn was the victim here. One of their employees was accused of taking bribes from a supplier, in order to give the supplier a contract from Foxconn. So the employee get the money, and Foxconn loses money by paying to much.

  2. It's Foxconn Employees taking bribes from supplier by dreadlord76 · · Score: 5, Informative

    This headline is really badly written.
    A few high level Foxconn employees have been accused of taking bribes, by Foxconn. Foxconn called in the law enforcement on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and is working with them to capture all the responsible parties. So rather than Foxconn taking bribes, it's Foxconn employees abusing their power, and embezzling against Foxconn by taking bribes from suppliers.
