Yet Another Hong Kong SCAM Strikes Again!!!!!


I never get bored to attend to these group of people because they really amazed me by using new methods which I gonna explain to you on the later paragraph. If you haven't know, I was nearly, I mean almost nearly being scam by previous group of scammer few years back. You can read furhter details about my experience with them in this link (http://g-inxane.blogspot.com/2009/09/hong-kong-scam-strikes-again.html)

It was a sunny afternoon where I was having fun playing with my favourite MMO Rising Force online. When I was almost able to get my hands on a Cora n00b, my phone rang thinking that my mom hazz called. I pick up my phone and answer and there's a lady with a very beautiful voice. She was introducing herself as telephony commercial sales persaon of I DONNO WAD COMPANY NAME IN CHINESE mainly dealing with tourism ... AGAIN!!. Then I thought "Fuck! one more scammer hazzz try to find victim in Malaysia." So, I realise one thing, letzz us tag along in this game. Well, the 1st call was kind'a boring though. She was asking me about my full name and whether or not I heard of this "Gold Reef Shity kind'a place" and ask me should one day visit. Then, I just gave her the very noob victim-watanabe kind'a answer till the calls end.

Without realizing it, I've totally forgot about this case of phone call since I was busy trying to get my character leveled up till 50, and then unlock my character experience for further leveling with some troublesome FYP project at the side for me to deal with, a phone call had came and again thought was mom....

I picked up the phone, wanting to say, "yea... mom..." but stoped after hearing this sexy voice from the phone. So i thought, "How teh fuck this h00ker got my number?". So, this lady said she is from the bla bla company and asked if I had received their call before. Well, since it was Chinese and I could hardly get wad she says, but one thing I know she sait I won a trip to Africa and visit the Gold Reef Shity. I was like WoW!!! O'Rilly?!. She went, yeah... really. She continued saying that I will receive a card containing certain amount of money sponsored by the company to be used for playing sloth machines at the Gold Reef Shity. She also ask me when i'm free to be at KLIA to be picked up to AFRICA?!!!! In coincidence my desktop goes blasting Shakira, WaKA WaKA Eh eH... I was totally stunt... w00t? Human Traffickin!! Oh NOSE!!! ICHINOSE!!! and start digging my nose and told her that, I'm busy and can't leave this country because I have important business to be finished off. So she went on saying that no problem, I have another option which I can get the money instead of the card but only can get 80% of the total amount.

Somehow it came into a very boring conversation and I LoLed to her and accused her for scamming. She then asked me to chill and go check the website www.goldreefcity.co.za. Without any trust, I ask her, why is it co.za and why not .com and she blurry answered, she donno internet stuffzz... she's just an operator. So, I let her off and say I'll check the website to find nething suspicious. She added that, she will be calling me again on Thursday. After the phone call I went to check the website and saw... HOLYSHIT!!! It is African paradise type of shity. Stillcan't believe the site is legit, I then whois the web domain and guess what, its domain profile is public.. not suspicious... I was like damn it! ... I jezz screwed up a nice lady on the phone. (However, I still believe it's a scam from HK.)

After a day passed, which is now, today, the lady who I spoke with was named miss Zhang, had sent me a letter of the pamphlet of the Gold Reef Shity thing. When I download the pamphlate and view it, I went ROTFLMAOL... and this is the fun part where my creation come in. Evidence of proving this Gold Reef Shity kind'a stuffzzz is 100% SCAM!!! Well, I just FTWed.

Below images are recently analysed and edited to show back to the company of wad they had done to their pamphlet.

Hi Miss Zhang, (Note!: Forward a copy of this e-mail to your own e-mail account)

Thank you for sending me the pamphlet regarding the offer which you had mentioned. Oh, before I get into detail, I hope you know English because I am not good in Chinese.

If you do not know English, please hire yourself a translator because this is very IMPORTANT message which I want to convey to you.


1. Thanks again for the 'tiger tonight.jpg' because it is a concrete proof which shows that you are working in a fraudulent company. I had pointed out the proof in my attached file in this mail.

2. I want YOU, miss Zhang, to show your STUPID IDIOTIC manager to see the pictures which I had attached to proof how N00B!!! he is for a HONG KONGnese wanting to CHEAT!!! us Malaysians.

3. We know your methods in scamming our money, so I dare YOU, the manager of this fraudulent company, to personally challenge me how LEGIT you company is! LoLzzz....

4. To miss Zhang, I know you are a good lady. Please do resign your job in this company you are working at. They don't benefit you since they will not be able to cheat our money and pay your wages. 
Even they pay you, those are not money you should earn. They are not clean. Also, I believe you have family rite? I also would know you won't want your family to see you fraud other peoples money rite?
I'm here to help you realise that, for so long, Hong Kong scam company had this trends that cheat Chinese from other regions of the world. This is very bad. I don't want you to be involve in this type of business. 
Your parents would be sad if they know you are doing such thing. Cheating peoples money is not good.

How I know that your company is a fraudulent company because of the file you sent to me. I have analysed the file and come into conclusion that the company you are working at is not doing legit business.
Think about it, if you are doing actual business and you are trying to promote a product 'Smart Card', you wont be using this cheap style of layout design. To be honest, it really suck! and I have pointed each and every 
detail of the layout flaw which is evident to be that your company is not doing legit business. Also, if your company really is doing legit business, your company name would be customerservice@goldreefcity.co.hk instead of
goldreefcity_hk@163.com. You hazzz been cheated by your company and this is serious. Finally, there's a saying that "it is no good things come in without hardwork" and I hold into this believe and I wont get cheated 
by your company. 

Why I'm telling you this? Because I believe you are a good hearted person. Everyone are born to be good. Only evil people like your manager/boss will influence you to do bad stuffs and will regret later. Quit whatever you are doing 
for this company after you receive my e-mail because I know, by experience, that your company is no good!. Take my advice and live in a better life by earning legit cash and contribute to your society. 

If you are facing any problem within your working office, please contact 2860 5012 immediately!. 
Thank you.



Best Regards,
Anti-fraudulent Company 2 the World Operating Sector (ac2w.os)
Mass Media and Telecommunication Department

========================================================================

So now, I'll be waiting for the verdict... will the lady call me up again tomorrow? or will she pack up her stuffz and leave the company. :)


Hope you have fun reading my latest experience with fraudulent company and yeah, stay safe in the wilds ... don't get cheated ^ ^


Best Regards,
Alvin Chan

Hong Kong Scam: Strikes again!


Ladies and gentlemen, now I'm about to fore told my first hand experience on facing this tremendous Hong Kong scam. Here's how it started.

Week 1:
I was having semester break at the time being. Suddenly, a phone call rang on my hand phone. There's this lady calling from a company saying that this company is a group that deals with holiday resorts, hotels, and other leisure activities. She said her purpose for calling me is to conduct a survey. At the moment I did not really pay attention to what she said. All was in Chinese and I just go along with the conversation. She also asked me to note down this membership number A63328.



Week 2:
During this week, my new semester starts. I receive another private phone call from this group. I supposedly felt that it is the same lady again from the last week phone call. This time, she told me that on 15 September 09, Astro will have a program which their company will conduct a lucky draw session. She said that the program will start at 6pm and ask me to watch. Well since me and my family do not have Astro, I did not care much bout it. She also asked me what is my membership number and I replied her I've forgotten then she told me my membership number and advised me not to lose it again.

Week 3:
It was Hari Raya during this week and again I'm having one week of semester break. Another call came from this lady again. With her own excitement, she was announcing that I had won cash prize worth HK$380,000.00 which is converted to RM176,000.00. She said that since I did not claim the prize on that day, the company had my cash prize on hold. In order to get the cash prize, I need to give her my account number which I gave to her. She also told me that her manager will give me a call to confirm my details. She also gave out her office number which is 00852 3065 7232.

The next day, the manager did called me. He congratulate me and asking me to confirm my details and so on. He also ask me to call up Hang Seng Bank (fake) with the number 00852 3065 7232. Details given tome is that my account number is 3069 6909 7398. Password is 158158. So, I called up this "Bank" and the person who received me call had confirm with me my account balance is HK$380,000.00.

Week 4:
This week, yesterday, (Tuesday, 29 Sept 09) I called this group up since I'm curious why I still did not received the cash prize yet. This was what I was told. In order to received the money, I have to deposit an amount of RM4,400 for the bank insurance in order to proceed for the cash prize transaction and this deposit have to be cash into Public Bank account holder Kee Yong Guan (4562 5163 28). I was also told that once the transaction is successful, the deposit will be given back to me. I eventually believed him until I called my uncle whether is it reliable for this case to happen. My uncle said, as long as if I need to transfer money to them, they are related to financial fraud.

I did my research on this company named Yihao International Leisure Group provided with URL:www.yihaogroups.com What i did was using WhoIs to domain scan the URL to obtain it's IP address 202.65.207.245. As you know static IP address will not tell lies and traced down their location to Lok Shan Building, Ting On st., Ngau Tau Kok, HK. Compared to the address given on their website, it says they are located at International Finance Centre, HK. Therefore it is obviously a financial fraud.

My Revenge:
Today, I made my judgment day upon Yihao International Leisure Group. After my class, I called up Public Bank to inform them this financial fraud case and have this account holder Kee Yong Guan to be investigated. Next, I called back to this manager telling him that instead through Public Bank banking, for my convenient, I made a "bankdraft" from Maybank. Then, he asked me to fax the "bankdraft" to him. Well, I asked him is there any other way to send the "bankdraft". He replied saying that through e-mail will be possible and giving me such a lame e-mail, yihaogroups@HOTMAIL.com. I was like "WAD THE FUG?!!! HOTMAIL?"

While having my big laughter for such group using HOTMAIL for god sake! So, here came an idea instantaneously. My subconscious asked me to create my own "bankdraft" which looks like this.
==========================================


=========================================
Of course, I'm curious what is happening, so I called the lady's office number.

So I said, since I'll be having the cash prize after the process is successful, I'd like to pay Hong Kong a visit to meet them up.

Then she asked, did I really complete the process correctly? What stuff did I sent to their HOTMAIL? If I'm not going to take the cash prize then say so. Why treat them like a financial scammers. If that's so, then it's better that we STOP CONTACTING EACH OTHER!!!

With evil laughter, I answered back saying, that's the whole idea!

I'm glad that she was very pissed off... she banged off the phone...
