Loan Scam
I lost $4500 to Loan scam and there are other victims as well - https://www.scamalert.sg/stories-details/Story-15Apr2020103940AM .

I have already gone to the police and found out that the website that I visited might not have belonged to the actual business owner. I applied for a car loan and was told to transfer admin fee + 10% tax (refundable). Was then later asked to transfer more for a "lawyer fee"

They go by several aliases of jackson,james,victor,desmond.

When confronted they claim they have been getting away with this for 20 years.

Would like to highlight the fact that this is my hard-earned money which they have scammed me of
