Guess the race!!!! Chinatown People’s Park Complex moneychanger cheated old woman

Earlier this week, on the the 18th of June, my mom headed to a money changer in People’s Park Complex (Chinatown), and was cheated of $500 at Haji Rahmathuliah (#01-K95B). A police report was made and an investigation is currently ongoing.


She entered this ?!#%^ money changer and was welcomed by a man who was apparently extremely “nice, friendly and helpful”. He brought her to the side where there was a corner counter and asked her what was the rate she was seeking. My mom then showed him my message that stated “If you change SGD$1450 you get IDR 14871200”. He ended up giving a lower rate but my mom decided to go ahead and change with him because he seemed really nice. Little did she know, she was walking right into his trap .


My mom had $600 on hand (6 x $100 notes) and went to withdraw $850 (17 x $50 notes) from the nearest ATM. She then counted all her money before handing them over to the guy.


What went down...


- Mom gave the $1450 she had on hand to the guy at the corner counter, where you can't see when he counts the money (as she recalled).


- Someone then came beside my mom and changed money with the same guy, which distracted her attention. (So weird though... like why would you attend to another customer when you’re presently already attending to one ???)


- Guy then diverts his attention back to my mom and tells her that she did not give him enough money.


- Mom said this can’t be because she was very sure that she handed him $1450.


- Guy refuted and insisted that she did not give him enough.

Are there no Chinese Money Changer at China Town?

Most of the money changers at People's Park Complex are Indian Muslim, normally they quite trustworthy, but , but...one has to be extremely careful. Years ago, one of my colleague was cheated of a few HUNDRED DOLLARS changing into RM...at Raffles Place. There are 'snakes' everywhere, if not sure...bring along someone to change money, especially the elderly ,simpleton, & careless, especially some woman.

A counter clerk at the Post Office in JB did that to me, eons ago...one when dealing with a certain type of people, you have to be extremely cautious. I wrote down the Ten Ringgit Note serial number before I gave the Tudung wearing minah, when I was purchasing postage stamps....she told me I gave her only RM2.00, my eyes was fast to catch the sleight of hand who slipped that RM10 into her pile of RM10....I told her I have noted the RM 10 serial number...you show me your pile of RM10 I will identify the RM10 I gave you...

The moral of the story is...know who you are dealing with & be cautious...prepare, as long as money is involved...

In china, shopkeepers shortchange you by giving jiao or fen notes. Foreigners mostly duped. Worst kind of thieving.

I was already pre-warned that these type of people at the counter are 'good at sleight of hands'...to test this prejudice, I really wrote down the RM10 Serial number & right on!..it happened. Another incident was at the old woodlands Malaysian side CIQ...where the q was fantastically long & counters were few & we have to fill in the white immigration card & hand it together with the passport to the Immigration officer. I keep a very keen eye on the white card always when I hand over...one incident, the IO, told me I didn't fill up the white card...I told him, you drop it into the pile at the right...he said, "Oh, maaf!"...hmmm! The point is, one have to be very careful...

This is nothing but a filthy lie. I've used the chettiar services of these good kelings several times in the past, and they've given me a good exchange rate.

I hope the good chettiars would be suing that bitch for defamation soon.
