Hi all,

Just wanted to share my ongoing story as well...

Some time back got loan from ah Long... 1 become 2, 2 become 3, now owe 6 ah Long money, ranging from $350 to $2k. Thing is, I haven’t been able to clear my loans, some clear partially, most of them just keep deferring because either they no account or I not enough money to pay them their clear amount. All started from weekly trial loan with promises for bigger loan... sigh.

Coming to my breaking point because I can’t afford to even defer them now. Searched for some help online and found this thread, thankfully there are many people who gone through the same as I did.

So from what I gather...

1) stop paying them, endure the harassment and eventually it’ll go away?

2) report to police for any harassment and vandalism

3) inform NOK and company about the issue
- this one I find hardest to do because of the humiliation and stigma which comes with borrowing money from loansharks.

This coming Wednesday supposed to clear one of my loans, knowing the guy, most likely will ask me to defer. If I stop paying, he will be the first. What should I expect?

Since you read thru, then got to know first step if to make that police report. Close your bank account to prevent unnesscary transfer (remember if they use ur account you can be charged as runner already). You make want to get a cam to monitor ur corridor area. Inform nok and office. May want to private or close ur social media.

You will recieve spam calls and sms/ whatsapp. They will raised their voice scold valgur, scare you into paying. All they can do is to instil fear into you, and if they do they can continue to milk more money from you. Just block and ignore them. If they can't find you they will try contact ur nok and do the same thing. Block and ignore also. Once they know they can't milk more money from you, they will just move on to the next victim. And they cycle starts again.

Then have a dinner with nok n share ur story n the steps u taken.

Jus sleep well for the battle on wed.

First, brace yourself for the harassment calls that start coming. He will also most definitely call your NOKs and even shout vulgarities at you and your NOKs. But important thing is not to get in contact and talk to the ah long; cut off all communications with them. The loan sharks are hiding in the dark and we are out there and the moment we stop getting in contact with the loan sharks, they are more panicked than us. That is why they resorted to all those harassment tactics to get us out and communicate with them again.

Secondly, you definitely have to let your NOKs know what happen. You rather let them know early than them having a shock and start panicking when ah longs start to call them and harass them. If possible, get someone close to your NOKs to accompany you to talk to them.

Then, just bear with all the stuff that might come from the ah longs and ride out the whole ordeal. Might be a few days or a few weeks but definitely the harassment will end when the ah longs knew they are not going to get anything from you again. They wont waste their time on doing something which is not going to reap rewards for them and they will move on to try their luck on other victims.

Guys my wife stupidly reply a loan sms ad and ask for $500 loan.
Now we want to return the money with interest, but the LS keep delaying to tell us his acc num.
I’m very worried that he will not accept our payment and keep delaying.

No need to worry, LS for sure will ask you to defer payment. I heard a bro's testimony, LS told him to defer 20 times then can full settle. But even after 20 times whether can full settle or Not, it's still a big "?".

Acting skills must be tip top and sibei gao lun. Even when I tried not to show too much expression, the tears still flowed, no way to control. The scars stay with you for life, physically and mentally.
I am trying very hard to stay out of trouble now, following instructions given by IO to the word. I don’t want to go in again man. But if the LS push me too much, and if I catch the runner (innocent or not), very hard to guarantee anything. I just hope that day won’t come.
