I’ve been a loyal Lazada user for over 11 years, and this is the first time I’ve encountered something like this.
I recently purchased a washing machine on Lazada from a seller offering free shipping. Although the seller had no product reviews, I decided to proceed cautiously. I contacted both Lazada and the seller to verify the product’s authenticity. The seller assured me that the washing machine was original, sealed, and covered by a 1-year local manufacturer warranty, so I placed the order.
However, just a few hours later, my order was suddenly cancelled. I received an email stating it was due to “incorrect pricing.” Shortly after, I received a WhatsApp message from someone claiming to be from Lazada, asking me to make a payment to a Lazada bank account so they could deliver the washing machine the next day. I refused.
Before I rejected the message, they sent me my personal information via WhatsApp — including my full name, address, and phone number, to confirm if the billing and shipping details were correct.
Now, I’m genuinely concerned that our personal information may have been leaked to scammers. Could this pose a risk? Should I make a police report?
