Easy Money Scams



Recently, there have been some new scams that go aeound promising easy money. 

First they will send u a message promising easy money.  Either an easy job or some easy investment. 

Then, they will invite you to join a chatgroup in platforms like LINE  or whatsapp. 

After that they will ask u to do some simple transaction at somr website link they provide to earn money and at the start you will see some returns.  When you get greedy and start transacting in larger amounts,  they will take your money and close the site down. 

Actually pretty similar to online game scams. 


Easy Job
Here is a sample of a invitation you might receive under disguise of a job: 

Hello, do you need a part-time job that can easily make money in your free time?

or 



Another type is in form of easy investment:

The stock recommended last week (01368Xtep International) has made a profit of more than 50%, join the group to witness the strength, receive a must-win.  https://chat.whatsapp.com/FFztUnr4MeI98ClURHWC1I

(PS this is rubbish.. this stock exists but didn’t show 50% growth in a week lot…)


Again,  if anything sounds too good to be true,  it must be too good to be true.

Bank Transactions Phone Scam

  Today I received a phone call from a mobile phone number.  When I picked up, it was a very professional typical voice answering system that sounds similar to those used by large companies… The message said that there are many transactions being made in my account and that I should press 1 to speak to a customer service officer. By now I already suspected they it is a scam mainly because my corporate  phone that received this call  is NOT LINKED to any bank. Out of curiosity, I pressed 1. So it went to another audio that said their lines are busy and that I should hold the line. Then someone picked up the phone and in a Singaporean accent asked “Good morning, how may I help you..” I was pretty amazed!!! But so that they cannot record my voice. I hung up after I took a screen capture of the number. Then i called my bank to check that no transactions were  made to my account and reported this to them. I asked the bank what was the right thing to go the next time and the bank officer sai

Dating App Scams

I was trying to start dating again after a failed relationship and some friends suggested using a dating app. Turns out that that was the BEST and also the WORST suggestion ever. The BEST because I did eventually find Mr Right on the app.. BUT, not before I met tonnes of scammers online. While I didnt lose any money, it was an absolute waste of time and energy for me and it was such hard work to filter them out! I really almost gave up!

Do take note to avoid the following things: Do not tell them upfront if you are widowed or divorced or recently broken up (scammers love people with these profiles so you end up wasting alot more time) Do not put just a "pretty photo" and do not use any photo w
