That is true. Working for the money isn't my worry, it's actually the cards that are due payment next month....because accruing interest.

1. logical.  if you cant brain this, why cant ask a 2nd person to help you "clarify" this ?

2. even you dont have any friend who can trust, TRY CHATGPT. give it 30sec, it can fully explain why this is a "very common scam tactic" , and this is FREE consultation.

3. dont have lawyer friend? do you have extra RM500 to spend? 2 hour simple query, cost round this price. for a normal solicitator.. or even criminal lawyer.
You dont have to be HIGH IQ, but if your logical sense still working, you know, how to seek "extra opinion" for clarity.

I already said that it was not with clear conscience as they brought up my kid and they warned me to not share with others. I know how stupid it was.

Thanks for making a point.

you logical sense till now still in "sleeping mode"


mark my words.

you future life still in great danger. as you cant process life with "logic"


They already bring up your family and kids, meaning YOU HAVE TO TREAT IT SERIOUSLY.

Meaning seek clarity, Proper help, even help from Professional, also Legal help IS no longer an option, is a MUST


but your logical sense work very different from logic.
You choose to follow the perpetrator order, to please them, and seeking their "protection" for your loved 1



Next time, just PM me. i dont charge.

Dang. Sorry to hear. Yes alot of ppl get scammed because they leverage on your emotions at that moment.

I previously got scammed by my high school classmate who used to work in bank. He secretly do insider trading for the purpose of scamming people.

I trusted him because back in school he's a genuinely nice guy. Seems like greed changes people.

Anyways I only lost 3k.

i lost 20k to a friend who stayed in same house literally living together in small island with interaction 24/7 7years. businessman n genuine nice also. then he ran away and my money also fly away till now.

Last time when we are still using house phone and my mom receive a call telling her my brother have been kidnap and they play a kid voice calling mama for help and they ask her for ransom, luckily i was at home and end the call and go to school to look for my brother and he was at school

I also receive call before from pos office saying there is a parcel under my name and they actually give my correct full name + ic number and inform me they found other people ic in the packages i have send, during that time lucky i dint panic and then think of all these scam and i tell him to let me know he from which post office and i will personal go there and if he at other state i will lodge a polis repot. that fella say because i not co-operative so he will be logging a polis report and i tell him go ahead

Another scam is when receive a call and that somebody will say "hi friend long time no hear from you, how are you" and when you ask back him "who are you" that scammer will say "we friend so long you forget me already?" this scammer is waiting for you to give a name so he can pretend to be your friend and ask to borrow money

There are alot of scam and if you receive a call about anything regarding your self, you need to stay clam 1st don't panic and think too much. If you with your friend then open loud speaker so all people can hear and they might even alert you that this is a scam

They came up with a document with Bank Negara Malaysia logo, the auditors details and some instructions on the necessity of the transaction. I was just stupid okay.

I probably should be more cynical and ask for details all the way. That is my fault.

even the smartest person can get scammed, like we usually see on the news that some even with professional titles such as doctor, teacher, accountant, engineer, or even a PHD holder kena scam, some can go from 6 figures to 7 figures worth of life savings

take it as an expensive lesson and hopefully the last, be vigilant

Actually it really is just common sense like what one of the commentators said here.

Apa nak buat, nasi sudah jadi bubur. Hanya boleh doakan outcome of kes tu involve some money coming back to my end. Makes things less painful.

anything for greed actually. If it's painful for 20k to a stranger, I can't imagine what it's like for a friend.

I had a funny experience with a so called polis officer.

yeah he said the same thing.

then I said to him "fark you"

he reply back, "fark you"...it went on for 1 minute of fark you back and forth.

Damn funny. He threatened to arrest me, I said polis come to house to arrest not via the phone, since when so high tech.

he said he will come to my house to arrest me, and whack me kaw kaw.

I asked him what is my address...he stalled, kantoi hahahaha

then I ask him, your polis boss in Myanmar got feed you well or not? KPI fulfilled? You argue so much with me, sure tonight no dinner

then he shut the call
