Just received another con case happened in Central Market LRT station. Done by MB&DG. Conned for RM5.6k. Happened once but she fall for it again.. sigh.

Will update as we might be going to TTPM for filing tomorrow.

Update #1 : Filed at TTPM. And handed over a copy to the company. The person who signed the paper looks calm. I suspect that they are immune to such thing, knowing it will happen. Taken 2 ~ 3 candid of him accepting the paper.

Hope things will turn out better during the hearing.

Thanks for the moral support mate!

Yeah, having ample time to think of solution on how to deal with them on the refund is the most tedious part. Read through lots of user experiences and tips seems like the results are usually varied. Currently i have a probability of 60% that we can get back RM4K.

Negative, nothing much can be done about it. Only thing we can do on our side is to protect ourselves or protect your loved ones from these poachers, hunting you for your savings.

I usually only listen to organizations like WWF or MNS. Any other than that, i put up my headphones and walk past them

Thanks. I will keep that in mind for benchmark.

Same case for me. I am worrying over the details given. Particularly the IC number and home address. From my best knowledge, they wont do anything shady with the information since they might not keep alot of paperwork to prevent exposure as solid evidence. But i still keep my finger cross over this matter.

Speaking of which on those who won the hearing and got refunded. Don't mind to share about the hearing process? I am really curious on how it was asked and how should we respond? If you are uncomfortable on replying in here, you can drop a PM to me regarding this.

Close call for you, smart move on the making calls Ya, the md&dg "company" changed their tactics to lure in victims. My girlfriend was unlucky in the place cause all the "members" were all in the room and played the music really loud that makes her scared more further and have no options to obey them in order to get out safely.

the eighteight deebee site is considered as a spam link due to bad reputation in here.

Yes that site really have good source to solve the cases.

1. IF you see such people, strengthen up yourself and don't look / stare at them. Built up high resistant against their persuading. Dont answer or respond to them. Just walk your way and eventually they will stop. If you are a girl, and they tap / hold / touch you, just scream. They wont go further than that.

2. IF you are in their office and asking you to withdraw money. Stage a fake situation saying that i cant withdraw friend coming over with the money. From that point, make calls to any possible friend / boyfriend / girlfriend / husband / wife that is available to fetch you up from there. Make a quick getaway.

3. DONT ever expose any possible credit card / cash card / debit card to them. They USUALLY prefer Maybank card for some reasons.

My bad.. i left out the word credit card. yes atm card they preferred Maybank due to the ATM machine. So remember remember.. make a run for it to dodge them.

They dont do scratch and win now. They use exploit a loop hole and they are using the buy and lucky draw scheme to lure in victims.

Yes they are. Who else will do that to woo customers? They are spreading like roaches to places where their "targeted" victims goes.

Why the police cant take action? According the Malaysia Law, they are a legal merchant as on the surface they break no regulations. They are legit in the lucky draw clause in the Consumers Law. They have legit company number, legit merchant license. That way they exploit that loop hole to cheat victims.

For this bit, you cant blame the Police for the inefficiency because there is no solid evidence of their scam operation.

Ugh, horrible bunch of monkeys.. can never forget their faces
