We can add the oriental carpet dealers to the list. I have a friend who lives next to one of these shops. He has never seen a single customer in 5 years and the prices displayed are just crazy. The shop goes bankrupt or changes owner every one to two years in order to complicate the financial controls, but it's always the same people inside.

The whole think must be a facade to justify rental income and declared jobs.
