Loan Shark Harassment and how to stop it

[khunjuno]

Finally almost done here at the NPC (4 hours+)!!!

Police officers were helpful and non judgemental, spoke with the IO as well who gave me some options on how to proceed forward.

Guys can I ask if it’s possible to close a bank savings account and open again a new one with the same bank?
Will the bank feel suspicious and ask ?

I did the same and they just ask why and I said my account has been compromised. I was able to change my account number. POSB will require you to open a new one online first before they close your old account.

Hope this helps.

Is it the same savings account? How to open another savings account when already have an existing one?

You will need to open a new one first then your old one they will close.

POSB allows and actually recommend that in order to close the existing one, you will need to apply for a new one first coz whatever money you have on the existing one they will transfer to the new one.

I told them im scammed n i need to close it before i head to the police. No qns asked. They quickly settled for me.
They r ok to open a new one.

So what you do after that?

Same as what everyone advised. Close bank acct, male police report and just ignore their calls.

Ya la they threaten to burn my whole block.i **** them say u tell that to my mp.shamugen la..see he come down hard on those commando ant

Power lah! Burn whole block. Cfm police make sure his whole operation no matter in what country shut down till no tmr.

 

[Stressout123]

No i want to change new account in case the LS transfer me money for no reason

Just go counter and say want close and open new 1. Counter girl out of curiosity will ask why close and open. I just say police advice, then no more questions asked.

So did they harasse you?

Actually just a 2nd thought, the LS only need a photo of the IC to give out the loan. So it’s very easy for pple to sabo right ?

Some of them only ask for IC and bank account, some ask for NOK number, name card, staff pass all that also. Not very standardised.

Stop paying them is always a good first step. Don't fund them anymore. Go make ur report if not done so.

How much is yours?

Currently in terms of pure payment (don't care defer or "clear"), I owe 600, 800, 600 and 350 to 4 ah longs and the other 3 I've paid more than what I borrowed (again, don't care defer or "clear").

So I owe about 2350 in total to 4 ah longs now.
