Received a watsapp message / call from this guy call paul oh. He was very persistent in pushing the loan to me and having the need for money, I agreed and the scam starts.

He said that in order to get the loan, applicants need to agree with a bank test loan i.e. They will send a sum of money and in agreement, you need to send back the amount agreed e.g. They send 200 and we need to return $380 i.e. $180 for them. Additionally, they promised to return the 100 immediately after we send them.

When I asked him to remit the 100, he got pissed and immediately block me and the so called finance dept of his blocked me too.

In total, i lost 180 from this scammer. The finance department no is 90767141.

Hope this incident does not happen to any of netizens here and hope to have this scum bags arrested.
