Jover Chew, the shop owner-cum-scam artist behind the Sim Lim Square fiasco, is fast earning himself new enemies every day.
The latest is Manpower Minister Tan Chuan-Jin who called his behaviour "shocking" in a Facebook post on late Thursday evening.
“I’m shocked at the behavior shown. The chap didn’t seem remorseful either.”
Sim Lim Square electronics shop owner, Jover Chew Chiew Loon, duped a Vietnamese tourist, Phan Van Thoai, into paying S$1,500 in warranty fees on Monday for an iPhone 6 purchase, which cost the tourist $950.
Chew was later forced to refund only S$400 following an intervention by CASE.
The Minister said the episode reminded him of other concerns he has been working on with residents on errant contractors, “who drag their feet after causing damage”.
“We should see how to strengthen or adjust our laws to deal with these cases where individuals face such hurdles to seek resolution. Some are disputes that may fall short of violating any laws or regulations, but they clearly assault our sensibilities!”
The incident outraged many Singaporeans.
A video of Pham crying and begging while asking for a full refund at Chew’s Mobile Air store went viral sparked an online campaign to raise donations for him.
Launched by Gabriel Kang via crowd funding site, IndieGogo, the campaign raised about $15,000.
However, Pham only accepted $550 off the donations, just enough to cover the money lost from the scam purchase.
Kang later insisted he use a portion of the remaining donations to buy him a trip for two to Singapore. The remaining portion will be given to another Sim Lim Square shop victim.
The Singapore Tourism Board on Monday said, “STB takes a serious view of errant retailers who besmirch the reputation of Singapore as a premier tourist destination…STB would also encourage consumers to report such unfair practices. They should also take the necessary measures to protect their interests such as researching on the product, conducting a comparison of prices, clarifying return policies…”
They mentioned it in a media release addressing another errant Sim Lim Square retailer, Cyber Maestro.
An injunction was granted against the shop after receiving a slew of complaints including “over-charging”, “exerting undue pressure” and “misleading consumers about prices and availability”.

The conniving business owner of Mobile Air, Jover Chew recently got himself into shit when netizens got hold of his address and sexy photos and posted it various local websites. Some took a bit too far and ordered pizza and MacDonald to Jover Chew's home. Even his wife and mother-in-law were affected by him.

I guess many Singaporeans are pissed off that he got away scot-free for tricking the honest Vietnamese tourist with his tactics. Despite the presence of policemen and CASE staff, the tourist lost $550 and without a phone. Also our ridiculously high paid ministers are rather silence on this news especially when a blacklisted shop that received more than twenty complaints within a few months, is still allowed to operate. In today Shin Min evening news, the landlord said that he can't chase Jover Chew out as he paid the $7000.00 monthly rent on time and he needs the money for survival. It seems like as long as there is money, he can overlook anything.

Earlier Jover retorted that his pricey handphone is like the pricey chicken rice at the hotel. He felt no shame for charging more than $2000 for a phone, fact is the mobile phones he sell can be brought everywhere.

In this internet age, when there is gross injustice and the government don't do anything about it, citizens/ netizens take matters into their own hand to ensure there is justice.

These clowns are always so easily "shocked" by such incidents. Then they will claim that they will take the matter very "seriously". Finally they will warn you that if you don't do things their way, we will all be "finished". :rolleyes::biggrin:

No they will form a committee first to push responsibility to public. Like yesterday news reported about seeking public opinion about construction site safety. Everything ask public, pay them money to do what? In the first place, public know what about construction site safety?

All these ministers love to jump out to talk when victim is foreigner and offender is Singaporean. No difference this time round. Got any minister talk about the Yang Yin case where the crook is foreigner and victim is Singaporean. Lousy one sided minister.
