Today I got a call from this woman, claiming she work for this ABC co and she said I have a stock brokerage account with ABC co.

Which is true, I do have, just that I haven't use it for some time.

So she said she is tied to this ABC Co and they have seminar training from 8pm to 9pm to teach people how to play shares.

Deep down my heart I suspected it was a scam, but I played along.

So I joined, and attended the online seminar. It was hosted by this chinese guy who had a terrible english accent. What he said was so general knowledge about US treasury and all that, but then it was his description of technical charts, not that I am expert in it, sounded like talking cock.

But the lady who claimed to be ABC co customer service, is so friendly kept in touch in watsapp, guiding me and inform me before the seminar asked me to spin the wheel to win prizes.

then it dawned on me, the watsapp group so ful lof shoe polishers. At first it was only limited to admin to post, then moment she (admin) uplift the limit, so many shoe polishers, said it was a good seminar and they won nice prizes. I was busy eating my dinner and watching my kids while only 20% of my ears was listening to the seminar, didn't bother about spinning the wheel to win prizes.

after show polishing moment, she closed the post for admin only. And this keeps happening. Open shoe polisher praise, then close, expert guy start lecture.

Next day I checked the phone number with Semakpon, it didn't detect it as a scam number, nevertheless I am still careful.

Then again they have another seminar tonight, and they want to do another session of praises and shoe polishing claiming this HK lady from a prominent investment bank.

Then I call up ABC co helpdesk, they confirmed it was a scam call.

Well, then this is how they gain your trust slowly slowly until you start to remit money until it grows too big.

when they fatten the account enough they cut you off.

Ok, then I just tested the lady, I wastapp her n asked her where is her office?

She no answer me, hahahaha.

Wait lah, I will ask more questions, I am waiting for them to kick me out of the group. I think moment I asked these questions, they already know that I have realization they are a scammer. Its in their playbook 101 to focus on gullible investors. When they see me asking carefully crafted questions, they already realized I am on to them.

So now this is how it feels like being in a scam.
I see a lot of Red Flags. I just wonder those ex teachers, retirees, accountants, govt servants, why they always kena tricked by these scams?

May I ask, have you met them (scammers) face-to-face or do they "scammers" promote their scam activity behind closed door?

Why don't you record their act and viral it in the internet?

tonight I am going to talk cock in the group. Provided they allow me to comment.

I will tell them I only have RM 600 in the bank account.

let see their response.

Again, may I ask, have you actually met these (scammers) face-to-face? You did mention it is an online seminar, was it live at that time? Why not record the entire process and send a copy to Bank Negara for further action.

So generous of you to show them real money. I personally think they should be shown the “hell” noted instead .

not shoe polisher la, those are their acc too. If you got invite to several group, all use same dialog. Funny thing when got name like chinese but use totally bm baku like script book.

Here's an intriguing thought: why not outsmart the scammers? Contemplate adjusting a bank slip to display a substantial deposit of RM500,000 and inquire about the status of your "deposit" with them. This subtle move might make them believe they've successfully lured you into their scam.

The idea behind this approach is to manipulate the scammers into thinking that their scam is working, and you are under the illusion that you've made a large deposit. Scammers often use psychological tactics and misinformation to exploit their victims, so by playing along, you may gain insights into their methods and intentions.

You can then ask them about the status of the "deposit" to see how they respond. If they claim that the system is updating or processing the transaction, they inadvertently reveal details about their modus operandi.

Nope.. I don't know any of them...was abit lazy to viral it.... Since I'm not a victim..

Edit.. Summore. So called assistance come and dm me...
So concern whether I can follow or not..
But I no give a fark..

TS is trying to scam my time, no thanks.

TLDR.

same for any other scam call

the more questions u ask, they will cut u off.

This number is registered to one "Rafinna" according to TrueCaller.

LOL. So you also got experience this before. The thing i find very funny is the teachers all claim graduated from London school of economics, but their english is worst that China uni grad. and the female teacher sounded so bad that its so obvious its reading from a script. And that the script for both person is written by the same person. Im still waiting to see what is the scam all about. The classes is half talk cock and half sales talk, trying to butter u up for something.
