if card really blocked, can always test it out yourself when you try to use it or best to call bank directly on number at back of cc and not that "click number" which may not even be what it seems to be ..

really, for most people cc blocked, nothing that urgent must rectify immediately, cc blocked wont die one, life still can go on, go out try using the cc at nearest 7-11 or mrt station to top up ez link card or whatever, if it really doesnt work, go to atm get some cash to tide you over for time being then call bank on the number at back of card ..

You met a cute girl on a messaging app and she is asking for gift cards in exchange for sexual favours? #AreYouForReal? Don't pay as this could be a sign of a Credit-for-Sex scam. Stay safe!

scam via PayNow

What happened?

In a video on Mar. 29, Ron, the founder of My Digital Lock, explained that Travis, who was from their Bukit Batok branch, had allegedly scammed money from customers.

The company, that sells home doors, gates and digital locks said the employee had employed tricks to con the customers into paying him.

One was to change his personal bank account name linked to his personal mobile number to "My Digital Lock Pte Ltd" so that customers who PayNow him via their bank accounts would see the company name and will be convinced it was a legitimate account.

He would also tell customers that the company does not accept credit cards. So, some customers paid him in cash.

Ron reiterated that the company accepts credit card payments and do not ask for online payments linked to a mobile number.

Instead, they will provide a UEN number for payments.

Ron said: "Once you transfer this amount to him, trust me, nothing will happen. No door, gate, nothing will happen."

The founder also accused Travis of giving customers fake invoices and quotations for their purchases.

Adding to this, he said the errant ex-staff gave customers a "special discount" so that they didn't need to travel down to the showroom.

Also, when customers asked for additional purchases, some willingly paid via PayNow, without asking for an invoice.

While Travis was on medical leave after supposedly contracting Covid-19, the company received calls from customers demanding purchases that had not arrived.

This was when they found out that Travis had dealings with customers that were not recorded in the company's books.

"Anything he promise you will not come true as many customers are looking for him," the Facebook post wrote.

Travis' employment with the company has since been terminated.

The company said a police report had been filed.

I wonder if the company will install free locks as a goodwill gesture. Build up good reputation and rapport so delighted customers will come back for more locks.

this one tough .. cost of the lock is higher than the labor cost of installing, so if the company does it for free they would lose a lot of money, unless they can recover some money from him ..
