How's things on your friend's side? He read this thread from page 1 until the last page already?
He scared go police. But i have told him as long as he never work for them and borrower wont get into trouble.

I know he is scared his family and work will find out. But paying it every week and stressing about money also scary. Might as well use the money and invest on cctv

I can understand his feelings, because I struggled for a while before telling my family and work place too for fear of repercussions. But here's the thing : The ALs feed on our fear of embarrassment, fear of family members finding out, fear of harassment. If he doesn't do something to put a STOP to this, he will eventually be pressured into working for them.

There is NO EASY WAY OUT from an AL money lending trap. Either keep paying, which is the second most stupidest thing to do, or stop paying, go to the police, inform family members, inform work place, change phone numbers and endure the harassment.

Look at all of us who have made through it or are making through it. We all started by making a police report and letting our family and work place (or whoever's contact we gave them) know. Once we can clear the first hurdle, all this AL harassment will be meaningless because they cannot gain leverage over us any longer. We will be released from their control and what's the most they can do now that our family and work place are on our side? Splash paint? Go ahead, can clean up. Burn door? Go ahead, can change door. It is much much MUCH better than paying their stupid defer fees and being extorted by them time and time again.

He needs to clear his mental hurdle before he can do any of these. If he is comfortable and needs someone to talk after reading the whole thread thrice over, we can connect on WeChat or something and can talk anonymously. Let's help him through this.

After quiet for one month, my house got splashed n locked this afternoon around 2pm. Managed to capture the runner face. Hope police can catch him fast.

Quite brazen to have done it on a sunday afternoon...
And tht too after 1 month...

New tactic is for them to get new borrowers to head down to a debtors unit to obtain the loan from them.
In this way, new borrowers end up becoming the "Runner" and unknowingly harass the debtor...

Dunno how they get all these ideas...

People charge money to tell you lot these things and you're getting it here for free.

You all better not be sitting there bitching about nobody helping you if you don't listen.

They tried to call me n NOK after the splash but police asked we all not to answer as they are trying their luck to talk to us n harass. In fact, I have another AL n police ask me not to pay anymore. How about your case after the splash? Did they still harass u?

Idk.but my neighbour gave the Al a good scolding...retired army warrant.lol

Heard of that before as well... Was at NPC making a report and suddenly got 3-4 different people all came in at the same time say that got AL call them to make threats and they are neighbours of the debtor. Strangely, the debtor himself don't know them and their contacts, but somehow the AL know. Anyone got any idea?
