Well... Eventhough it's the other company who do it, partly The parent company can be blame as well for not filtering which company that should be in and which one that shouldn't be. Report and claim. If they don't listen, Sue them. Eventhough it's just 5 bucks, but what is important is Your right are protected and at least the scam would be a bit scared to Drain your 5 dollars in the future~! Cheers !

The Macrokiosk works like this: Company A have a server. Customer send sms to macrokiosk macrokiosk forward to Company A server company A reply to macrokiosk macrokiosk send back sms to customer u see, macrokiosk is intermediate. wat can he do except to stop the company business. |

QUOTE(gogo2 @ May 13 2007, 11:31 AM) how to filter? Can't blame you as you are not in the industry. If MK own the shortcode MK should be responsible on every single sms sent out from that shortcode. Shortcode owner is being warned and alerted for these countless time by telco and MCMC since last year. If the same problem still happening until today who do you think is guilty? The "dun give a damn" shortcode owner like MK or those "hit and run" small company that use the shortcode?The Macrokiosk works like this: Company A have a server. Customer send sms to macrokiosk macrokiosk forward to Company A server company A reply to macrokiosk macrokiosk send back sms to customer u see, macrokiosk is intermediate. wat can he do except to stop the company business. From what I see is if the shortcode owner take a step to prevent the client to abuse the sms shortcode then what can the "hit and run" company can do to spoil the market? Jeffooi.com is doing a very good job in exposing the very details of the industry. Want to know more go there. |

Well said, gogo. Your remarks really do reflect your knowledge/experience from someone who has worked in this industry. Can't blame the public to have wrong impression.
Companies such as Next Nation and MacroK are the platform/gateway providers. They are given and own shortcodes and have helped smaller CPs to disseminate their contents. Yes, no doubt that these big names have the power to spoof but i believe it's strongly otherwise. The chances of wrong doing on purpose can easily be done and is there a point for these big players to get that extra dollar? Put some thoughts into that. Besides, why take the risks knowing that your company's name, i.e. NextNation & MacroK, will be displayed in one's telephone bill? Could this be a case of a sabotage? I am one of Jeff's avid fans, for sure. A reputable blogger he is, and many comments he makes about ongoing issues are very interesting. However, this time around about the sms scam expose, there's alot of doubts about it. Many areas seem to prove too one-sided. NextNation and MacroK have become the sole targets. Could there be more? Any hidden agenda perhaps? Check out this blog below for a different point of view: http://mobilebedsidenews.blogspot.com/ From a public perspective, i really cant blame if NextNation and MacroK are the ones to be blamed. The big 'BUT' here is, if you're an insider, or someone who is from this industry, we are all well aware of the nuisance existence of AKN Mtech. Let's all 'hail' Pai Kiah LIM.... p/s: well i did mention in previous thread that i get spoofed from AKN Mtech too... |

I just kena con by this company...I google for Whatspps in the net and then suddenly google suggested a website, the website screen appeared "key in your mobile number" which I did, then asked me to press yes....received sms from Digi that RM5 is charged for registration and RM5 per month for services...I keyed in and refresh with my same Digi number and I was charged RM5 x3....how can they provide the same services three times to the same numbers....this Makrokiosk intention is to cheat.... I called Digi and worst Digi said nothing can be done on subsequent charges. Digi claimed they have signed agreement with this company to honour the payment. I spoke to Digi, Jason Loo, he said he is the manager. He provided Makrokiosk contact and email immediately to me to call.... There must be a lot of complain on this company and Digi is able to provide info. so fast. Digi could have void the agreement since there were people complained before. Why Digi continue? Digi is collaborating with this Makrokisk to force Digi customer to switch to maxis or others... What else can we do ? |
