1 more tactics is they terus go ur house, tekan bell and try to sell u durian, then act pity tolong beli semua la. I want to go back rest. Their price really slaughter 99. 2kg per biji they told u is 5-6kg. No timbang.
Few days ago saw ppl post on FB

Dear esteemed members of this Lowyat Forum,

It has come to our attention that since the 24th of June this year when forum member Lohtcing posted our Facebook Ad regarding the public information work we have been contracted to perform regarding the Durian Industry there have been many posts replies and additional comments regarding other venues and alleged events.

We would like to take a moment of your time to reiterate that Ace Promotions Sdn Bhd does not conduct direct sales events and the other events here at (your quotes), "MV". "Midvalley" etc as well as telephone numbers that have been added here are nothing to do with Ace Promotions or its clients. Rest assured, we strenuously vet all clients before taking on a campaign of whom must be fully regulated and/or licensed in their relative fields before we promote their operations to decent, hardworking members of the Malaysian community.

Thanks for taking a moment or two to allow us to reach out to you.

Dear Donidoni,

While adding to this thread we noticed a valid point you bring to everyone's attention. While this thread is in the main irrelevant to our operation we felt it pertinent to clarify how we offer buffet's at high end hotels such as the Hilton etc without cost or obligation of any kind to our guests.

While we agree there is (quote) "no free lunch" and it is always the consumer that eventually finances advertising, it is not charged to participants of promotions. In no different way than consumers do not pay for advertising on Facebook, YouTube or Astro. The costs of marketing is of course built into the cost of any products purchase price.

Therefore attendees of our buffet programs nation wide genuinely enjoy the opportunity to eat lavishly in some of the best hotels nationwide without a cent of cost. This of course is funded from a percentage of previous sales designed to bring awareness of our clients opportunities to the community in a more rewarding and meaningful way. The feedback from many satisfied customers seems a resounding preference to annoying ads interrupting our favorite TV programs and social media time.

We hope this small comment serves to clarify the position of Ace Promotions at least?

Thank you for your time to read and may of all of us at Ace Promotions wish the members of this Lowyat forum a happy weekend ahead.

Dear C64,
Thank you for commenting. We guarantee no cost or obligation to the Durian Masterclass located in the finest hotels nationwide. Our clients are a conglomerate of plantations owners and their PR staff. So please do not be concerned that you may not be in a position to make purchases or investments. The overwhelming demand of one of Malaysia's fastest growing exports in history seems such that every Durian on every tree is sold before its even grown so no pressure needed or given.

For those interested in more than a slice of fun, food and information for an hour plus at the weekends we offer a VIP inspection tour of the plantations themselves and see for themselves as we had done before commiting to this campaign.

Regarding your further comment on discrimination... all advertising is targeted to maximize return and by nature is of course, discriminatory. However, please feel free to click the learn more button on our next ad on Yahoo News, Sky News or Facebook and chat with the reservations team.

On a personal note, may I thank you for making me smile. On replying to you I noticed your user name was, 'C64'. That was my first computer bought by my late father for my 13th birthday and was my most prized possession ever at that time. You made me smile. Bless you.

Yours sincerely,
Elizabeth.

Now that you mention this, I received this call. The event is held in Midvalley. Would a scam be held in such a venue?
I did not attend because requirement to bring spouse and time of event. Someone needs to look after baby.
They did not ask me to pay anything, just eat, give feedback survey. So maybe yours is scam but mine did not sound like it.
