Hi All
This is my personal expereience with this scam and i hope to warn more people not to fall prey into this
I believe most people have heard of scammer praying on people who wants to make more money for their family. Yes i myself fell prey to one scam.
I am a single mother. Being a PR here is not easy as we do not enjoy as much subsidy as a citizen. My son is a citizen and hence i am stuck here.
Living standard in Singapore is very high, i myself alone sometimes do have trouble keeping both of us alive. Thats why when there is a chance to earn more money, i would do it for the better future of my son. Cut short my introduction ,
I got to know this GUCCI Mission through a teleview chat group.
So what this scammer does is , they will give you a mission
to verify a GUCCI produc.
there after , you will have to make a transfer of the amount for that product to a paynow account allocated by the "merchant"
After a while , you will get back the money you put in, plus a small commission.
Things went on smoothly and after a few transactions, i made a mistake for not reading PROPERLY.
So i was give a task, in fact 2 task to buy 1 products valued at 6110 for 3 pieces , so meaning in total i have to fork out $36,6600. So as i did not read properly, i only paid for 1. So this is a mistake i made. the merchant then tell me to make payment for another 2 more pieces, which i did. There after, they told me that i did not notify them before i make a transfer. thats so call my mistake number 2.
so inorder to release the entire amount which i have put in, i have to complete another mission which is in total to fork out another $36,660 to fulfil the mission in order to release all my funds back.
Stupidly , i went around borrowing the sum to make payment. I was not in the correct state of mind at this point of time. And finally i manage to beg n borrow the final 36,660 and transfrred them.
Lo and behold , they said that i because of the mistakes, the entire transaction was frozen !!!! Can you imagine what is going through my mind?
So then come the thaw mission which i have to fork out another 30k to do another mission. i was shocked and my mind went blank.
After calming myself down, i feel that i might be a victim of a scam.
there is no use talking to them, i called the bank to report this issue.
The banks said thay recovering the money is very slim. my heart really sank.
What started out as a mother trying to give my son a better life now landed myself in a pool of debt. I am at a lost.
My income is merely only 1900 a month , how am i going to repay the loan!
I am blamed myself, for being foolish and stupid that i had just lost $48,880.00
Police report had been made , but i doubt it will be any useful in recovering the funds. now my only worry is survival .
