A lady bought my phone from mudah yesterday.
I sold my phone to her. she gave me all RM100 18 pcs.
When I try to deposit to the deposit machine the machine didnt accept it and I show to my friend to check it, he just found out its all fake RM100s with some of them with the same serial number.
I made a report already to the police but not sure if the police can do anything.


This is the IMEI Number of the Phone 355056052515478 Samsung Galaxy Note 2 White Color SME Set
Warranty: November 20, 2012-November 19, 2013
Her Number: 018-238-9189

wah susah la ini macam kita mau bisnes cod. the lady from lowyat forum or other.

She from other (mudah)

Hello there & very good day

You probably want to keep the phone number that she use to contact you. Search for somebody that have access to tele company's customer details...

Atleast u got lady num phone..police sure can detect la..when u cod and where cod the place..

Yes I still have the number but i dont know anyone and hoping someone will help me or recommend me.

How the police can detect it?

scary news.
should consider publish the cheater details here, so everyone can watch out,

Check the number . Ask telco the owner address. Bring police report

Sorry i dont have the details just only her number...still try to call her but she cancel it.

I got the copy of the police report already...i will try to do that.

some of high-end samsung phones comes with internal GPS device for security reason. maybe u can call Samsung Customer Service Centre for more information ?

How the lady looks like?

Later do business online transfer during cod. Like those in the movie. Safer

so to all my kawan , hati hati kalau cod, elak elak dari cod malam, perkara ini maybe terjadi pada kita semua.

So what is her phone number? You gonna share with us or keep to yourself?

Thanks for your advice will try to do that

I think shes Malay, short around 165 not too dark

orite. u should do this. becoz last time i call samsung centre for detecting the location of my friends phone, samsung galaxy ace, but they said, samsung can detect only high-end phone such as SII, note, etc. good luck

will post it

very ugly face?

Just an FYI, it doesn't work that way unless you've installed an app on it to do so. Since you sold the phone, if it's new it won't have it and if it's used I'm sure you factory reset the phone, so it won't have the app there either.

Sorry to hear about your situation though

actually this case was reported last time.. the seller also sold the phone through mudah.. he's selling S3..
The woman with the same MO contacted the guy to buy the phone.. the women kept changing the places for cod.. and she wanted to do cod at night..
when the deal is done the man realize the the 100 notes are all fake..
sorry for you bro..
we all have to be careful next time..

Yeah just learn a new lesson.

wahhhh fake money .. you cant differentiate it ?

No its really look the same...unless you really check it very details

The phone number may not register under her name if she has the intention to cheat u

That also Im thinking of but I will try to know who own that number.

i also been cheated by buyer from lowyat.net... last week.. but i will wait respon from the buyer.. if the buyer dont want to give back my money.. i will open thread here..

no respon . open a thread lo

are you sure she/he will return the money to you?

Sorry for your loss during cny

Happen to me last month, maybe the same lady. I received 4 hundred fake money and 120 (RM20 notes) real money. I heard few cases before.

Usually she/they will deal at night, cant see the car he/they driving

Sorry for ur prob fren. Try pass me her contact no i try ask my fren for help tq

Sorry to hear tat bro. Post us more details so we can avoid dun think she just do once.

Try sending a PM to the Lowyat's trade enforcer, Apis_LuaLua. He seems to be very very good at finding details of people.

However, finding out details of others through sales made outside of LYN, it might be a tad bit difficult.

On other note, this thread should have been posted at Trade Zone Helpdesk & Dispute Resolution Corner.

Licik betul minah penipu ni buat keje.. Dah le pompuan plak tu.. Haram jadah betul.. New tactic give notes 100s deal on nite.. If me doesn't look the serial no at money.. Must becarefull for all buyer if meet the seller... Pity ts...

No use also. Cause it is too easy to get someone info

after u ed get INFO, let SHARING yeaaa...

Actually now if rm100 note hve to b really careful coz lots of fakes.

All fake money series number are same??

dont know if the police will take ur case seriously...but to FORCE them to...go to the press n tell them ur case...plus bring the false money...press like METRO like this kinda story....hope by getting to public make the police to take ur case seriously
^^

I gave the money to the police already and yes almost of them same serial number

About 2 months ago, 1 news came in the newspaper where a businessmen try to deposit RM13k into his bank but the machine rejected. He then proceed to bank in the money via counter. Later the counter staff found that it is fake note and informed police.

Police found out that the businessmen got scammed by someone else on a similar syndicate (RM100 new fake notes) but until now, any action taken?

That's very unfortunate. Hope you'll find her or at least get some money back

Well, just to share my experience, I have bought and sold some items cod. I'll bring along a friend and discreetly take their picture and their car plate number. Sometimes I would upfront ask if I can take pic of their IC just to see their reaction

Inspect item thoroughly. If for items around 1k+ I'd usually sit down at mamak or kopitiam (preferably with wifi) and check everything out. It usually takes 20mins to 1 hour+. I'd inform him first I would do that. If the seller suddenly become anxious and wanna close the deal fast, usually something fishy going on.

When payment time, doesn't matter selling or buying, I would insist go nearby ATM cash deposit do payment. No cash transaction. This is to protect both buyer and seller from suspicion.

Finally, when transaction done, usually the other person relieved and let guard down, I'd suggest they pass me their business card in case wanna do more deals in future.

Usually in my case, it's not so much about the money, although it does hurt the pocket in the following weeks / months, but for me, the bitter experience of having taken advantage of really stays with me a long time and every time I recall the memory, really leaves me disgusted

It's unfortunate this incidents usually happen because there's quite a lot of honest traders I've met who are really excellent. These scammers really paint a bad image indirectly for them

Wow, money also got cheater. Next time, call buyer pay half price to bank first. Easy to deal

Really great piece of advice! Thanks for sharing!

urgh..bad news. all the best to find the cheater bro.

Later I try call this f***er

just try...not if she will pick up it

Cant remember, reset the phone before giving to her.

Btw nowadays people very dangerous, scamming,make fake money... Just check all the money before give buyer item...

Bawa report ke telco la..minta pihak telco trace pemilik num dan alamat..bila dah dpt detail semua tu jumpa balik Io or Aio then tell them u got detail.they go with u la pegi alamat that girl..aiyo..thats why u need to fren with people..git problem they can give advise la mcm mana nak buat...

Yes so I just learned a lesson from this experience.

Piece of advice, next time check the money 1st. You never know when it will happen.

Man, feel sorry for ya. Hope the issues solves asap =).

Best of luck

good news for you. just make police report . i sure police will help you cause not you kene scam but the fake bills.. they always hunt ppl who make fake bills.

now buy things scare things got prob.. sell things scare fake money... what kind of world is it.. the best will be use fake money buy things that got prob? sigh..

We cant do anything because there other people take advantage others

I agree

I did already..Im hope so they will make an action.

Make fake money wor... Must take action lah

Wow first time heard about this kind of scam during COD in Malaysia ... next time need to smell the money or check the serial number for the notes ..


Mind share the image for the fake cash?

I know someone who have been fake money victim during cod, also from mudah. Selling S3 for rm1700. Be cautious with below:
1. Normally a young women/girl
2. Usually they won't haggle at all about the price, they just agreed with yours
3. They usually prefer cod at anyplace where they wont have to waste much time eg petrol pump
4. In my friend case, she bring a baby along too avoid time wasting.
5. They wont even check/inspect the phone u r selling

Try to do this during cod:
1. Check out the serial num of the notes. In my friend's case, total amount rm1700, 17pcs rm100 note all same serial. That time rm100 new note just released by BNM, so he was not quite familiar with the money
2. They fake rm100 using low quality ink, easily fade when contact with water
3. Try to snap her car plate num, u have to do this. Usually driven by male driver


1pc, the most front is ori note


1pc, most front, upper line is ori note

Thanks for posting it

there must be some big syndicates going around, and printing fake money that identical to the real ones proves that. next time when contacted by a women to cod bring a fren along so that when u r talking to the girl, ask ur fren to count the money for u, if anything happens u hv a fren to back u up.

yeah for sure theres a group behind this fake money.

After my friend case, one family from KV was nabbed by police after spending on holiday in JB all using fake money, if not mistaken all rm100 note.

she hot?

IMHO, if she's smart enough to fake money, i think the number she use also will be a stolen one too

dammit. chill bro. no way out for her, karma waiting in the future.

The police might delete ur report is they cnt settle ur case..bcoz they want to protect the iso standard-tht state tht the case must settle within 3 month..better urself trace the number..

i would prefer online transfer.. even cod, direct meet in bank transfer.

my way to do business , if u want sell and honest you got nothing to hide.
ppl with intention to cheat will have many excuses . same like g1bber experience.

yeah,thats why everyone, member or non-member please take xtra care during cod as they are daring to cod with u face to face, unlike those bozos who just dare to hide behind the computer and ask for postage and cheat u.

wahh..lady also do this things aa...aiyaakk

i think u need report to bank negara.
this really serious case

Maybe try Samsung dive at:

http://www.samsungdive.com/DiveMain.do

man really feel sory for u

kena 1 time at tesco ampang , cod 11.30pm for a galaxy note...rm1k..total 3 notes of rm100,but lucky me only kena 1 note...

after that very careful d...

I will be very careful and diligent next time.

wahh..same situation. but only 3 notes of rm 100.

take care ya when COD

My best advice: AVOID RM100 NOTE !

I rather have fairly used up RM50 note, than sparkling new 100 note. Follow by 10 pcs per stack (RM500), easier to count.

-Pls take your time to count money, repeat twice. Why rush.
-Having a UV led light as extra & precaution.
-Have a buddy along if feel not safe.
-Meet at bright & moderate crowd place, not secluded area.

Sure police can if they wan to....

Malaysia police : bull shit..

tats why i said tat..

Haha, 10000 % agree. I have been conned nearly rm2k, making police report but they said cannot do anything. Even they said they have many important case. Haha

Probably the best trade enforcer on Low Yat. He deserves the mod status.
Sorry to hear about your case bro.
Can't imagine even if COD , still get scammed.
Sigh

ehhh how to know RM100 fake ???? hmmm

google it bro. the first thing check the serial number

i also heard some story from other forum regarding this matters.last time a lady bought s3 paid by rm100 notes and pays 14 pcs of it.the buyer rush paid the seller and make reason to go back to her home town for emergency reason.the buyer ask to cod at greenwood kl.when the seller come back home he noticed that all the rm100 note are fake with same serial number.maybe the lady are the same person .

My advise :

Always practice to COD at place with CCTV ie : 7-11, shopping Mall, Convenience shop at petrol station (Mesra,On The Go)

If buyer refused, you know why

yes i think the same lady

Someone call me today asking for my 3gs and he's look like another scammer because when I pass the phone to my friend to talk he just make an excuse and when we try call him back to confirm the time, the phone only ringing and then second time its already go to his voice mail.

Ts sorry to hear that. Mudah too many con case di I nearly got cheated 3 times selling fake goods as ori, ffk cases and etc. Future better to avoid mudah

Yeah will avoid mudah from now on

Feel sry for u ts. Did she pay using the new 100 note?

yes she use new rm100 notes

I feel bad for you.. Good luck.

Biasa klu by pos mmg ada kes tipu.. But COD also kena con.. Manusia jenis apa ni? Puuuuiiiiitttt

counterfeit money is easy to make nowadays..
