Loan Shark harassment. What to do? Help!

Recommended Posts

I moved into my current flat for close to 10 years already.

There have been 3 cases of loan-shark harassments. I am innocent, I did not borrow any money from them.

 

Case 1: In 1998, when I just moved in, my wall was vandalised. Debtor was the previous house owner's son, Liew Yon* Chia*. We explained to the Ah Long we are the new owners, showed them the PUB bills, they believed us and left us alone. Good grief.

 

Nothing happened for 10 years. Then Case 2 suddenly popped out on ~20/11/2007.

 

Case 2: 20/11/2007. Our wall was vandalised, with minor paints on the door.

No names were scribbled, just the unit number. We repainted the wall and cleaned the metal gate with paint solvent. One month passed, nothing happened before case 3 comes.

 

Case 3: 31/12/2007. Wall was re-vandalised with name "Liew Yon* Chia*" scribbled. Then we know it must be the previous house owner's son again. Gate was locked with bicycle chain. Paint on gate was worst.

 

Tried to call up the hp number left by the Ah Long, but nobody picked up.

 

What can I do? Suggestions, please.

Called the cops??

 

Either the bugger did not change his address on his IC or just simply lying his way thru...

 

I have a neighbor(just shifted in) which is gg thru the same phase as u.. Called the cops and pasted some notice on the front door.. Till date, such harrassments have not been made.. YET..

1. Put a webcam in a non-conspicuous spot outside your flat and record the faces of the perpetrators.

 

2. Lodge a police report and make sure you get the name of the investigation officer. Follow up with the I.O. and bug them to do something about it, like more frequent patrols around your estate/flat.

Yes, called the cops immediately. They are efficient.

 

Since I know the debtor is previous owner's son, can I claim the repair bill from the father. It was the father who sold us this house and we are living with his aftermath.

If I recommend Staking out at night with a metal rod ...would you dare to do it...

You are protecting your house... Get two buddies along... wait at staircase landing...

when they turn up .... get one to call the cops while you launch attack.. whack them till they cant get up... police come ... take report end of story

u catch the runner also useless. for every one such ah long runner arrested, there are at least another 10 still at large. and tats not even up to their boss level yet.

 

buy resale flat? do some homework. check with neighbours, check the corridor walls for any obvious paint overs.

They operate in the wee hours in the morning.

When my brother returned at ~1am, there were no vandalisms.

When my father tried to get out of the house at 6am, the gate was trapped.

 

They might have struck between 2am to 5am.

This is very true. Unless the Police nab the source, there is no end.

I talked to the police, they say we can sue him for keeping our address for money-borrowing purposes.

 

Another inspector said 10 years might be a long time, it could be the Ah Longs did not update their database.

 

Just pasted the police notice this afternoon. Hope everything stop after this.
