Fake FL scam?

[sigils]

Not sure if any bros encountered this before as I've encountered it twice.

What happened is that I will see get the FL ctcs through wechat search nearby and they will normally say they are from Taiwan and only charge $100 for 1 hr and $200 for 2 or 3 hours.

But when you reach the place of booking,they will always ask you to snap a picture of the location you reached. Once you done so, they will ask you to buy some phone cards by saying as it's the first time we deal, she's afraid of police so no cash transaction.

I will always insist only dealing in cash instead of some card stuff. But they are always insistent on the card thing. In the end I walked away from those 2 fls which happened on separate occasions.

Why I walk away is the suspicions on not accepting cash for those 2 FLs and every time I wechat through voice messages, they ever once reply me with a voice message even when I asked them to.

Not sure if it's fake but I went to 2 different locations for those 2 FLs on separate occasions but scenario will still be the same.

Just my comments.

Another con-man/woman tried a fast one on me. Found her on CL. Claimed to be malay. Asked to come to her house in Lor 7 Toa Payoh. Once i reach her block tells me to goto the cash deposit machine close-by and deposit money in her account.
I told her i have cash in hand, but she kept insisting. I wasnt born yesterday. So just a friendly warning.

Buddy,

Rule of thumb. Payment after service. And when it's too good to be true, it ain't true man.

Yeah its too good to be true.. but sometimes there is onky enough blood to one head. But luckily still left some blood to flow to big head to think.

Its sgd100. Mostly these wechat will not have any cell phone number to it. I realised alot of taiwanese FLs in the market but may all use the same method.

erm so basically they con your money to get phone credits?

i do not get it.

[icy_boi]

don't be stupid. The buy card is a method for them to earn ur money and u will never ever get to f that lady. Cos that lady might not even be the real person whom talk to u and 2ndly once u purchase the card she will never ever talk to u again.

There will be a background where u are cursing and swearing at her inside ur heart LOL. So many naive sammyboy around. :cool:
