Hi guys,

Recently we (the family) found out that my brother have been taking loans from ah longs, and now he's on the run (supposedly). Today I'm getting multiple whatsapp messages and phone calls from people telling me that my brother owes them money.

I have nothing to do with all this, and I'm not the guarantor either. What can I do to protect myself?

I talked to the police, and they said to just block all of their attempts; I've also registered a police report to create a proper paper trail / chain of events.

a. should I have talked to the AL on whatsapp to explain to them I have nothing to do with this?

b. what should I do if some guys dropped by my house?

"Pay the loan" is not an option for me because a) it's a huge amount, and b) it's not my debt, and honestly I don't want to take responsibility for something I didn't do.

move out, change number.

Change number don't bother to respond the moment you respond it will get way way way worse

Yes. Change tel. Number.

And hope your brother didn’t give the loan sharks your family home address…

Make sure your parents are safe, install cctv outside your home/parent's home

1. Lodge covering police report
2. Install CCTV at your house
3. Block and ignore any call from loan shark

Thank you for your suggestion guys.

Moving house is a bit impractical at the moment, but I think I will install CCTV; does anyone have any recommended models?

Reolink / Tp-Link Tapo / etc. Plenty good outdoor CCTV available.

get a fierce guard dog

Install cctv, install motion sensor bright led flood light

They will harass as a mean of last resort to recoup debt. If harassment is futile, they should leave you alone. By responding to their WhatsApp, you are opening the channel for harassment - not a good move.

All right. So far they just (tries) to Whatsapp and call me (and I block/not respond to it all), but it's making me super nervous. Every time I hear a noise outside I was like "oh shit!".

Really hope they'll give up soon.

If cheap cheap one just get xiaomi cheapest model cctv u can find it runs on microusb so nothing special you need, just a long usb cable and adapter. If want Gooding a bit then get the ptz 2k pro, also same micro USB but 2k lo.

I don't mind spending "okay" money, but I don't want to go overboard. I'm concerned about my safety ofc, but I'm not rich

I'm thinking of getting this TP Link one although the power cable is a bit too short...

U have little time, u need do fast, tell your boss u have some serious shit matter to settle, these ah long can anytime go to your house and paint red colour or burn the house and your jiran house


>Disown the brother immediately, quick after your police report, u probably need MCA Public Services and Complaints Department Michael Chong to help u the disown or follow this website https://asklegal.my/p/legally-disown-family...ysian-law-wills

>Give a lot of PSA about your brother to everyone, find him, rat him out, tell him that u are going to disown him, zero connection to him

>Hold your ground, find MCA Micheal Chong immediately.

> u should check what debt his own especially the bank one, car loan etc etc etc , tell the creditor that this person probably cant pay due to ongoing ah long issue

once u able to find the brother, tie him down and split him all the truth.

as i say again, time is very essence, hope all the best.

This one runs on DC cable. You can buy DC cable extension and just extend it

real life experience here due to few cousins (mom side) encounters with ahlongs. These were due to gambling debt and business issues.

All I can advice is just follow what bro.nelson969 shared above. That is the best course forward. Listen to what these Michael Chong ke, DAP ke service bureau personnel will share with you to the dot. They have been dealing with these issues for a long time.

As for those CCTV ke, dog ke, those are only side dishes that you can do if you have extra moolah to spend on. All these can't prevent shit from happening. CCTVs can only provide you with recording of what happened, which may prove useful when do follow-up report with polis and/or MCA/DAP service bureau. Try not to use memory card as the camera itself may get burned down. Dog？ Don't bother, it may end up dead after a nice treat of bbq pork pau.

In the mean time, start moving those flammable items in and around your car porch immediately. Just either throw away and/or move somewhere safer like empty neighbour houses (with permission la) etc etc. Also start consider and checking for home content and/or fire insurance if these include riot/arson.

Keep in mind that despite all these incoming harassments, all they (ahlong and his minions) wanted is their due back (with interests of koz). Da boss doesn't go out in public to do all these, so it's the minions (most probably debtors) that is doing all these intimidation works. So no point to even plan your own vigilante movement unless you're ready to go deep into the worm hole.

If you have the mean, also consider renting a house a few doors away and move there for the time being. This should keep your family safe while being able to monitor your own home within a safe distance.


Good luck and stay safe bro.

# added..... DO NOT try to contact your brother anymore. let him be the one who try to establish a comm channel to you. No contact is the safest bet for both you and him, for now.

If ur brother borrows from ahlong, ask that ahlong to get it from who borrowed it, stop torturing the family. Looks like u have one helluva charsiew brother who has no whatsoever respect for the family. Secondly, you can contact mustafa khan. Hes famous for dealing with ahlong. Better contact him. This guy is really badass. He might put all this to a stop.

U can whatsapp him. All d best
