I recieved a call from number I didn't know amd spoke to a nice lady called Siti, she asked me some questions about my age and income and said I had been invited to go to an event in Mid Valley. I went to event, and they told me about the Musang King products being exported by our farmers , which I found very intresting . I got my free food sedap and also left with my 200 ringit shopping voucher and holiday voucher. I have already booked my trip to Phuket for later in the year.

I thought it sounded to good to be true but I was glad I went. It was defintely worth 90 minutes, the only problem was parking driving round looking for space for while.

Comment from Expo Media: It has been brought to our attention that members of the public are requesting information on our services. Therefore, may we please offer some clarity in the form of a brief summary and answers to some questions raised here in this forum.

www.expo-media.net

Summary: Expo Media is an advertising specialist in key business sectors such as: Property, fashion, publishing, banking & commerce, as well as the agricultural industry. Expo Media provides a vast array of events ranging from charity dinners, award ceremonies, exhibitions, shopping events and track days to name a few.
About us: Commercial ads generate increased consumption of a company’s products or services through “branding”. The economics of business ensure that consumers pay huge hidden costs for “mass-media” advertising when purchasing a product or service. Expo Media possesses state of the art targeting and profiling abilities. This negates the diminishing returns of television advertising as more of the public migrate to internet television.
Concentrating on relational intelligence we can increase the, “budget per ear” by accurately selecting those being advertised to. As potential clients become more educated with their knowledge of the products they consume, companies become ever more competitive for their business. Expo Media brings to the table a sophisticated, mutually beneficial solution… the clients interest is gained by a truly rewarding experience. Beit, a dinner, a memorable cruise or a brand new car. With Expo Media, the client is King!



Poster’s Questions and our answers:

Q1: “I have few question here, why Group Media and not expo-media”?
A1: It is common place for ad agencies or event organisers to contract a second supporting
company if demand for the event exceeds expectation and / or initial planning.


Q2: “I also got called from them saying things about Durian expo @midvalley these coming
Wednesday. I am eligible to receive Cash Voucher worth RM200 and a few nights at the
designated hotel we later choose. My point is this: Expo-media.net domain name has
just been registered these 3 month’s time”?
A2:Expo Media was incorporated on the 2nd of January 2000. However, recently Expo Media
has expanded its operations to Europe and the USA. Therefore a change from a
local domain to an international was appropriate.









Q3: “Who sponsors those gifts”?
A3: All awards are sponsored by the event organisers or their guests presenting to the
public. In our experience, all companies hold a percentage of sales to invest in
advertising.


Q4: “If everyone go and sit there wait for the prizes, where they find the fund to supports all
these gifts”?
A4: Please see the answer above…

Q5: “Just wondering... what do they want for us”.
A5:Our events are designed to brand a company to a consumer through a positive experience. Trail advertising (which may include a humble tasting sample of a company’s produce to a month long trail of a super yacht ) is designed to give a positive experience between the advertised product and the potential client in a way printed publications or television advertisements cannot. Companies now brand their products with this “enhanced experience” and gain future loyal / repeat business. The potential customer trails the product, service or produce without financial commitment, usually within a pleasant environment where the potential customer is then rewarded or made to feel important or special in some relevant manner.


Q6: “My colleague also received calls a few times and finally he said he want to go and the lady asked him a few question included his household income, when he said less than A6: RM14k per month then the lady said sorry he was not qualified”.
A6: It is standard business practice that companies track the profiles of those that most buy/pay/consume their products and then target that group for maximum potential return.


Final comment: Expo Media vets all event holders to ensure they are professionally licensed, listed or regulated within their field. Should incentives be provided, Expo Media insists on pre-purchasing, stocking and independently auditing all awards. Should lucky draws be held, all lucky draws are licensed under the, 1965 Lotteries Act or the 1997 Common Gaming Houses (Exception) Notification Act. for the excitement and peace of mind of all participants. Expo Media invites all and any potential event goers or companies to visit our offices in Malaysia or Singapore for an inspection tour of our offices and available services.

We hope this serves to clarify matters to your satisfaction. Should anybody require further information please contact:

Dear Mr. Suicideroach,

While I cannot comment on the status of this post you refer to, I can confirm that feedback of this nature is a common occurrence with incentivized events.

I will not comment further on your post other than to say, there is no scam needed. Advertising (be it a page in a publication, a mass media blast on tv / radio or an incentive to trail a product) is paid by corporations to benefit the public for future financial gain of the corporation sponsoring the incentives.

Please see below screen shots of some of the feedback we have received regarding the expo referred to here in this thread....

I could be wrong but I think what they trying to do here is gather money to launch a durian farming... Where you could invest (in lot). They try to say how lucrative is durian return and potential is. And have acquired a large piece land from government (to make u think it won't be a scam).

Just like how arga wood project a feds years ago.... Well I could be wrong...

However if u wanna get the 200 voucher and some hotel voucher and good meal then go ahead....

Remember no free lunch
90 min + parking n petrol = Rm200 voucher + hotel and lunch

It up to you

Just my 2 cent
