I just got a call from XXX company saying that my name has been chosen just because I travelled a fair bit over the last 5years. The lady said that I would be receiving 2 airline tickets to Malaysia/Indonesia/Thailand & goodness knows where in the mail. However, she will need my NRIC no. to issue the tickets. Before I could say anything, she read out my NRIC no. I took the chance to say "No" when she paused for a breath. She thought I was going to correct the NRIC no. that she has read though I admit that it is not the correct one. I told her again that "No, I am not interested" and "No, I am not going to confirm nor correct the NRIC no. that has been read out to me". She said that she need my NRIC no. and will call me again. So, I said "Please don't bother as I am not interested". So, plse take note and let yr family members know in case they get calls of similar nature.

http://www.tremeritus.com/2012/08/24/catho...s-from-parents/ The Catholic High School (CHS) is openly soliciting for "gifts and presents" from the parents of its students, to "touch the teacher's life", in its coming Teachers' Day Celebration. According to the CHS memo which was forwarded to TR Emeritus (TRE) by a parent, the event is organized by CHS Management Committee, CHS Alumni and the Parent Support Group (PSG). The memo wrote that the PSG Exco is appealing to parents who would like to show their heartfelt gratitute to contribute a present to this event, and listed the 'proposed' presents as "shopping vouchers, dining vouchers, current digital gadgets or home appliance, tour packages, etc". Parents are asked to deposit the gifts into a box at the Primary or Secondary School's General office by 27th August 2012. The memo also listed the contact person for parents with enquiries as Bee Yen (Primary) and Winy Quek (Secondary).

There seems to be a nos of posts by merchants trying to solicit biz covertly or openly. This is clearly unfair to merchants who sponsor threads. Personally I have no issue if all of us are playing on level grounds. Please look into the matter. I hope other thread sponsor can also voice out their concern and share their POV. Thank you for reading.
