so I just got out from shopping complex at PKNS Bangi. I got to my car, then this guy came to me. He is a chinese wearing neat attire, in shirts and long pants. He gave me this pamphlet saying it is a discount voucher that can be redeem in any shopping outlet.

It is sealed, and you have to open it to see how much discount you can get. Discount can be 50%, 70% based on the color inside the pamphlet. It can also just be a 'Thank You' text as he showed me one that was opened earlier by someone else.

The pamphlet is yellow color with picture of 2 old couple with the text 'Mother's and Father's day' .. or something similar. The guy claimed this is a promo stunt by Genki to promote its product, and it is giving away discounts during Mother's day.

So I just opened it and there was a sticker inside. I opened the sticker and it showed Silver colour. The guy act surprise like its the first time ever happened to him. Then he exclaimed this is a very special colour. I will be eligible to win special gift which can amount to RM4000 or I can even win a car!

Then he said I would need to do some acting for commercial where I won the product and say 'Genki Bagus', or something. I would need to stick some stickers to my car. And he goes on and on how he will need to inform his supervisor to come over and explain things to me.

I just got bored and think the whole thing seemed like a gimmick to scam. The pamphlet doesn't have any detail about shopping discount or any mention of what prize you can win. Smell too much like a scam, and I just say no and left.

So guys, do you think this is a scam? Anyone ever experience anything like this?

well, if you have genki phone number, you can call them. that would be the sanest choice

same old style... i think those scammer shud think of other method...

Sri Petaling also got, along the road next to "the store"...the guy approach me i say "NO" thank you!! It is another "kua kua le"

SCAM!! No point pondering about it.

ask them pay u cash directly.. then cabut

Yup, seen these style waaay too many times.

- revealed the hidden answer to the coupon
- the salesman goes too excited and saying that is the big win
- to get the prize, u need to (1) pay them, (2) do some gimmick for their own purposes, (3) etc.

Genki Bagus!!!

parking lot marketing is so so the wonderful...i won 2 BMWs myself...all yesterday for Motha AND believe it or not FATHA Day special...

if they ask u pay for anything first then dont.

i did the commercial b4 ... genki bagus ... i got a new car ... persona ... anytime soon the car will come

genkui baguih.

it takes more than that to scam the internet

How the scam's method they wont mind,as long as the feller get cheated,this is wat they wan.

u got cps no need persona la

This scam has been around for a long while.

yeah, I do hope no legit business will use this kind of marketing technic. Going around and promoting around car parks is just unprofessional.
I was looking through my rear view mirror each time while the guy was explaining the discount thing to me. I thought maybe he got some friend doing shit to my car at the back or something.

There are cases of legit product being sell using this method. The product is is not really too bad, but the way they sell it is unethical. One time a relative of mine was approach by this sales guy. And they were handing doing some kind of lucky draw. As it turned out, my relative got first prize or something. Later on it turned out still need to pay but in discounted price coz they got the lucky draw discount. Legit product but unethical selling technique.

Give me your bank number and you win 9999 millions from Nigeria account of a dead prince.

Congrats : You just won RM.14000 from XxxxXX, please reply the sms to claim your price.
