My dear, am still proceed with it since alr paid. Today I jz did 17th treatment.  They wanna push another treatment so called skin repairing treatment.  40×treatment cost RM 19600.

You can only convert ur balance enzyme treatment to skin repairing when u sign up that 40x course.

They wont tell u this T&C upfront.

They just want to push u to sign up with credit card and the top performance The Curve branch manager Mandy will keep on tell u to confirm with installment via credit card.

Other than money, the result is totaly not convincing and truly believe that thry did touch up the photos of existing client should they did show u the effectiveness of the treatment.

As wat I had experienced,  they divided it into 3 stages to close deal:

1. Enzyme treatment min 10x depends on the situation of the face.
2. Selling products, mine is up to RM 14k
3. Skin repairing treatment.  40x at RM 19600

I will just finish my balance treatment,  not going to sign any additional course.

I was afraid they did smth bad to my face and then ask me to buy products to cure them..should i go? sigh...

dear all,

I posted the below onto the Serious Kopitiam forum few days ago. After seeing this entry, I am more convinced that my sister has fallen victim to the same company here (Shakura).

Urgent need help. Possible scam?, Beauty treatment, credit card

May I know, those who dealt with this company, how many has actually successfully gotten back any money at all? If can, please teach us.

Million thanks.

Dear all sifus,

I need a big advice from you all.

My sister is in some big trouble.

(Some details like names and prices can't reveal here as we still hope to end the case in our favour.)

Last week, she saw an offer on a discount site on some beauty treatment which is very worth it, paid only RMx9 for a one-time treatment. Below is her own words:

"...when the treatment finished, when i came out, they show me the effect and also explained about their products, said for my xxx to improve further, i need to sign a x0 times treatment contract, they show the result loh then said if sign can get xx% discount, can go for instalment plan, very effective loh. i also dont know why i so stupid........"

In short, she signed the contract with her credit card number, the total amount of the whole deal is more than a few thousand RM, paying in a few instalments.

After one day, she felt regretted because it was really expensive.

Now I know that when a contract is signed, it is signed. She can get sued if she backtrack now. My question is, other than just go for all the treatments on bloated price, and be parted with a few thousand rm of hard-earned money, is there really no other ways to save her out of this whole thing?

Note: I know the lesson learned: I would have adviced her that:

a) Any deal that costs more than RM1,000 need to come back and cool down before committing.

b) Any sale people that tries to convince you that the offer will be gone if you don't sign now, you should be very suspicious, and should just walk away.
But, it is too late now, she has signed the damn form before I knew it. So I would appreciate advice on

how to proceed from here

and not waste time on why she shouldn't sign it. She now knows the lesson learned.

I also hope this post can serve to warn other people who would have become a victim.

Great thanks.....
