Hi all, thank you so much for your support. You guys have no idea how much this means to me.
To those who asked me to support him emotionally, unfortunately the ship has already sailed on this one. I stupidly helped my dad conceal his cheating on my mum many years ago, but I told my mum last night. Mum is now filing for divorce and we told him he’s no longer our dad cos of all the lies (which have been going on for many years, and it’s not the first time we’ve lent him money).
My dad said he only provided his own IC and office address to the loansharks but not our details (although I don’t fully trust him). My mum is able to cancel his phone line cos it’s under her name, but I’m worried that this will trigger them to show up at our place. I’ve shifted out sometime ago but my mum and my sibling are still there and we are trying to sell the house. We’ve repaid 3 loansharks before I got your advice, but dad says there’s 7 other loansharks waiting for their payment.
What should our next step be? Don’t pay the rest and just cancel the line? Will the loansharks do sth drastic like beat him up etc to make him give them our details? I’m living in fear everyday....
Not 100% sure what type of loan sharks you are dealing with. We are encountering a lot of loan scams, those who even if you pay will come up with lies and tricks to say you never pay.
Those who use fear and threats to scare you. Do not pay them, report them to police and follow our advice, police will also give you them same advice. You can see Bro JJ case for reference. Pls don't let this ruin your family or your Dad any further.
All the info you need are here. PM if clueless.

Your dad will always be your dad even though he get you all into this trouble and mess, he needs understanding too and needs someone to beat him into shape depending on what his problem is, eg gambling or etc etc.
That's what family are for, pls do what you can for him or refer him to the family services who have professionals who can help him.
