This story has been around for a while.

It is believable based on the fact that China will never admit a mistake or a setback. AKA "saving face"

I had 15 years of first-hand experience with Chinese vendors, and they could never admit a mistake.

I speculate that this trap they use is why China demanded details on the USS Connecticut collision.

They wanted to know if it was their trap that the boat collided with.
