Danger: Pls read the new fraud cases in Singapore

another news received from email...



NEW CASES

Someone shares the following cases :

(1) Today i passed by a building which has an ATM machine. There was an old man looking at me.... suddenly called me. He said he didn't know how to read, so he gave me his ATM card and
asked me to help him withdraw money from the ATM machine. I answerd 'NO!! If you need help, ask the security to help you. 'Then he said 'nevermind..' and continued to find other people to help him...

REMEMBER : ATM machines have CCTVs. If you help him he will later claim that you have robbed him or stolen his ATM card. Besides,his ATM card could be a stolen one. So please be careful of these frauds.


(2) Suddenly your house lights go off. From your window you find that! your neighbours still have lights. So you go out of your house to check the Meter Box. But once you open the door, a knife will be pointing at you and preventing you from closing it. This is when you will be robbed and injured...

REMEMBER : Eve n though your electricity suddenly goes off, DO NOT open your door immediately. Look around to see if there is anything unusual or if there is any noise around.


(3) This is another incident. You may have heard it before, It is about a lady who she saw a kid crying by the roadside. When she spoke to the kid, the kid told her he was lost and wanted her to take him home. The kid even gave her a paper with his house address. So she took him home. But when she rang the door bell she had an electric shock. Later when she woke up, she was naked in an empty room.

REMEMBER : Being such a compassionate and helpful person might not be a good thing these days. Pass this on and girls, please be careful.. DON'T BE TOO KIND!!


(4) One day, there was an old lady outside my householding 2 packets of sweets. At first I thought she was our neighbour and wanted to give us these packs of sweets as a gift. But then when she spoke, I can realised that she is was foreigner. I could not understand what she was talking about. I guessed she must be asking for money. I sensed there was something wrong and immediately closed the door and ignored her. Later, I found she and an accomplice robbed someone else down the road


(5) I was at the ATM machine to withdraw some money. Behind me, there was an old lady.
She asked me whether I was able to withdraw my money because she said she had problem with her machine. Suddenly a small girl came up beside me. The small girl was squeezing in front of me. I thought she was just naughty and playful. But then, the small girl put her hand at the hole of my ATM machine where the money comes out, ready to take away my money. I sensed something wrong and immediately pushes her away. Later I realised that the small girl and the old lady worked together. She was trying to steal my money while the old lady was trying to
distract my attention by asking me questions!!

REMEMBER: BE VERY CAREFUL when you are at an ATM machine and be alert. Look out for anyone suspicious around you.


(6) My parents are retired and stay at home most days. One afternoon, a young stranger went to their house and said his motorcycle had no more petrol and the petrol station was too far for
him to push his bike there. So he asked my parents for an empty coke bottle to buy some petrol.
He said he will pay RM2 for the bottle. So my mum took one coke bottle for him. He really took out the money from his pocket, but it was a RM 100 note. He told my mum he had no small change and asked my mum to give him the change. Luckily my mum was smart. She just told him to take it for free...

REMEMBER : obviously that note is fake!! Who would want to pay for RM2 for an empty coke bottle!! It's very OBVIOUS that that stranger is a trickster.


(7) this happened in Bali . A newly married couple were having their honeymoon at the hotel.
When both are in the changing room, the wife suddenly went missing. The husband was very anxious and went around to find her. He asked the hotel staff to help him find her. Then he thought his wife was just playing hide and seek. So he went back and waited for his wife. After a few hours, he decided to call the police. 3 weeks passed and there was still no news about his
missing wife. So he went backand was very dissappointed and sad. A few years later, he came back to Bali , to watch a 'FREAK SHOW' in an old house. He saw a dirty and rusty metal cage.
Inside there was a lady without limbs Her body including the face was full of scars. When he had a closer look at her face, he was shocked to find that it was her missing wife put there as a means for begging.


(8) This happened in Shanghai . A few yeas ago, a lady reported to the police that her cousin sister was missing in the shopping complex. But after 5 years, one of her friends found her cousin sister begging at the road side one of the streets in Bangkok , Thailand The worst thing is that her cousin sister has no more limbs and her body was tied toa lamp post with a shackle (metal
chain).


(9) Let's just shorten this story. DO NOT open your house door when you hear the sound of a
BABY CRYING!! It might be a trap! Women in the house must be alert to this trick. The police said it is the work of a robber or murderer using the recording of a baby crying to attract your attention. This normally happens at night and when you are only alone in the house be especially.


(10) I read an email that was sent by my friend. Her friend, known as A, went to Luo Hu Commercial City with 2 friends, B and C. Luo Hu Commercial City is the Shenzhen counterfeit goods distribution center. There are many people there... It's also near to the ShenZhen train station and Hong Kong 's Luo Hu Port. C went to the toilet at the shopping centre while A and B
waited outside. After waiting for a long, time they felt uneasy and went into the toilet to
look for her. When they went in, there were nobody inside there. Both were scared and they called C's phone. There was no one answered. So they reported to the police. The police asked them whether they had seen anyboby suspicious going into the toilet. Both said there were none and its impossible to bring a life person with more out of the toilet without them noticing!. Then A remembered seeing a cleaner pushing a trolley in, and then coming out. The police told them that was not the 1st time such a thing happened. The police suspected a gang of criminals who were always attacking women in the the toilet of shopping complexes. They use cleaners to kidnap people to harvest their organs for sale.

REMEMBER : please be careful when using the toilet. Do not go to the wash room or toilet ALONE!! Please at least have a partner with you.


This is my own experience in Singapore
I was paying my phone bill and internet bill at AXS machine in Marsling MRT station. I realized that two old ladies were standing behind me and talking among theirselves in Chinese which I don't understand (I'm not chinese). I thought they are queuing to pay their bills. That's why I quickly finished my payment and walked away from machine. Then, I realised that two of them were following me without doing anything with AXS machine. They walked faster than me and they were getting nearer to me. After that one of them started greeting me in Chinese. Then I replied them in English that I don't speak chinese. One of them can speak English a little bit. She asked me if I'm a Buddhist. I said Yes. Then, she asked me to follow them to pray. I asked them where are they going to pray. They were just pointing to the lift without saying anything. We were talking under a HDB block next to Marsling MRT. I knew that something is wrong. I refused to follow them. One of them had already pressed the lift button and waiting for the lift. Another one was persuading me to follow them when the lift arrives. I refused to go and walked away. Then she held my arm and shout at me in Chinese. I tried to push her hands away and ran all the way until they can't see me. So, be careful. If I had followed them, I'm sure that they will do something to me. I think their age is about 50 to 60. Be careful...
