The number al used could either be spoof or a recycled number. If they forget to change their contact in their fb, then it will show up. Anyway, those al will not dare to put their faces on fb or where. So most likely what you see if not they.

As for the 300, just to confirm it is not the sg bonus that the govt is giving?

So here’s another update. In the morning, my messenger asked for an update. After the update was made there were 2 new contacts came in with their FB profiles. My messenger stated that the new contacts were sync from my mobile contact numbers. The 2 profiles were from Singapore and Malaysia. I don’t have a friend or contact in Malaysia. I have only 4 Singaporean friends which I knew personally.

Later I will submit the 2 pictures to the police for their checking.




Hi Bro Larry and friends, thank you once again. So far here are the things that I already done in the past 2 days since the harrasment last Friday. This forced transfer scam is like an extortion with blackmail.

1. Filed 2 police reports and updated the officer twice as well.
2. Closed my bank account and already filed a reversal of transaction with the bank for the $300 that was anonymously deposited to my account yesterday. The bank said the reversal of transaction back to the sender will be done today (Monday).
3. Blocked the numbers, deactivated my whatsapp and changed my mobile number to a new one.
4. Gave headsup to the condo security team.
5. Informed my company’s HR.

Later I will followup with the bank if the reversal of transaction is done so just ensure that the $300 will be returned back to the sender.

Bro,the most impt thing is to let ur family know about all these...though they will kan u,but family will always standby u..and will face these **** along with u...for my case, my mum stayed up with me everynite to jaga the cctv...we took turn and stayed vigil..trust me ,with family de support,it makes the fight against these MFs less taxing.

Agreed my dad help me to paint my gate, even a lot of scolding from him

Hi Kleong, I’m a foreigner here so definitely it is not a SG Bonus.
I’ve been living in Singapore for almost 10 years now but haven’t heard about SG Bonus. So I guess it’s something else.

Moreover, I already reported the matter to the condo security and they also advised to inform the landlord since we are just a tenants.

This rules the sg bonus out. Was wondering cos the amount just nice 300.

I think even when you reverse the payment, those al will say did not receive, you deposit into wrong admin, the amount is admin charges and you still owe them. You know they will come out with all sorts of cr@ps. First time now is close your bank acct and yes, inform the landlord.

How much you owe bro? Have you inform your boss? I am finding a right time to talk to my boss as eventually they will call my office.
