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?

We are hiring part-time online writers.

Help Tik Tok internet celebrities increase their fans

Just use your mobile phone, you can make money easily in your free time

Completion once can get 2-10SGD income.

The daily commission is 100SGD~300SGD.

After the customer service link takes effect, please reopen the dialog window and click Customer Service Consultation!

If you are interested, please add my Whatsapp consultation:https://wa.me/6585767107

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.

You Run The Risk Of Meeting Scammers Even If You Are Selling Things Online!

I always thought that scammers only target people who are buying things online. Boy, was I wrong!:) Some time ago, a friend said she needed help to sell a branded wallet and I offered to help her post an ad online. Shortly after I posted the ad online, someone replied! He first asked if the wallet is still available. When I replied that it was, he sent this to me: ------------------------------------------------ From: Dan Webster ddwebtt@yahoo.com To: Angel Peng Sent: Sunday, 22 July 2012, 13:01 Subject: Re: Preloved Genuine Brown Gucci Wallet For Sale Ok!

DBS Bank Scam

Today I received a call 87592694... which looked like a normal local phone number.. BUT the caller had Filipino accent told me they are from DBS bank. (RED FLAG 1)   Then she informed me that someone had used my acc to transfer money to buy a gaming laptop and asked me if I bought any gaming laptops. I told her NO. And then she kept asking me this same number cos I gave a one word reply. Cos I think most people will panic and want to check this or that.. and she just asked me like 3-4 times till I asked her back "How many times do I have to say NO to you?"  (RED FLAG 2)   Then she said now that she confirmed I didnt make the purchase, she will have to undo the transaction by asking me for my name to verify it.

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! Anyway, I thought since I already put in the work, why not share my FINDINGS and SOP so other women who are interested in dating online can benefit from it? Once you have decided which app you will like to use, one of the most important things is the profile that you put 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...
