I kena the same too. Have they done anything stunt?

Can anyone share their stories how are you all kena pull into this.

Mine was simple. I was browsing carousel and came across iPhone Installment plan. And after contacting that person and I was pull into this shyt hole. Force 500 into account and find all sorts of excuse to make defer, after returning 2k plus they say weekly loan is paid, I still need to clear monthly loan of 800. I reported police and now they spamming calls to my Nok.

Have you reported your case and taken police advice? It's doesn't matter the mode, once you are on their list, it's harassment hell time for a while.

For my case the uml i xfer to, they received the $ fine, no wrong account no late charge nothing. They test a 300. I gave them back the 300 and few hundred. They say will return me the extra sum that I gave them. Want me to clear them 500 tmr since their account ‘full’ today. I planning to just give the 500 and block. And somehow they gave me a same account number to xfer to Then update my IO. What u guys think.

Take the police advice. Transferring money to them is **NOT** one of the things to do.

How abt now bro? Still have? My one they force 300. I gave them about 600 now already including their 300. This guy also gave me same account to transfer to. Quite funny. He also don't have any defer or late charge or anything. Wondering if I block him now will spam call my "NOK" number anot. Haha my NOK number is my spare line lmao

Now they still want to continue suck your wallet. Once you block the number, they will have other numbers to call u and spam all the fk words. Block now and make police report. Will save you a lot of money

But didn't u find it strange when they ask for ur IC, bank account, NOK details, company details?

Phone installment plan where got ask for all these...

He was saying this promotion could only be done thru online and thus required these personal and nok numbers. And that bank details required for monthly auto deduction. But once they forced the money into your account, they will have doff tone already.

You just ignore them. This is how they think by forcing a loan by transferring to you and you will have no choice. You do have a choice. Inform your workplace that you have been scammed. Also, inform NOK. Just tell them you thought it was a legal loan.

Next, change your mobile number and close bank account. Remember even if you try to transfer back, police will suspect it as illegal transaction.

Finally, deactivate all your social media accounts to prevent them from attacking your friends or family by letting them save photographs to threaten you. And go get a cctv just in case.

Remember, nothing will work if you continue to fear them. Stand a firmer ground and cut their source of money.
