First of all, try not to find a store that needs a transfer fee. If transfer fees is too high, your cost will increase and your risk will be great. At present, most of the cases are transferred only when the business is not good, and some of them are specialized in speculating high transfer fees to make money. If others can't do business, maybe you can, but if you are a novice and inflation is so fierce now, the chances of failure are great.
Secondly, if you think this store is good and can do business after examining the surrounding consumption power, then you can consider taking it down. Don't pay the transfer fee in one lump sum, pay part of it first, and then pay the rest after meeting the real landlord. In the process of payment, you should have the information of the person who transferred the money to you, such as ID card. The contract was signed with the landlord.
If you really take over the clothing store transferred by others, you'd better change your style.
Good luck!
