Project 365: Day 71, 27th April 2009
The only funny thing though is.... I don't HAVE a UOB credit card. So I knew it was a scam to just fish for my personal banking details and hopefully illegally syphon money out of my account (little do they know though that I don't have much money in my account to begin with hahaa).
Anyway I was tempted to play along and reply
"OH NO NO!!! WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!"
But I got distracted with work so I decided to leave it alone.
And about 8.52PM later that night the same number sent me another SMS. This time Praba is says he's from Kudrat Partners & Co.
Watch out for these kind of scams guys. Bank Negara put up an announcement not long ago warning people of these scams.

Btw it is easier to post the images of your iPhone by taking screenshots of your iPhone screen.
How to do that you just need to press the menu button and the on/off button at the same time.
The images will be saved in your camera roll.
marccus: hahaha yeah .... funny stuff
jd: yeah i would think so too
jwxwei: hahaha yeah i really wonder how they get the numbers
mark: wow i just tried it and it worked! i never knew! thanks for the tip
Maybe the UOB credit card is under your name but in another person possession? lol
I got one this morning in my email, asking me to change Maybank2u password :S
You should call him and act all "OMG what should i do?", then after he advised you say, "But i don't have a UOB card wor..."... hehehe, that'll be funny =P!
Tim... Kudrat Partners does exist la. They are those people who are loan collectors...
They exist in sun pages and job street la.
They just sms the wrong number.
Bank Negara spelled "Payment" as "pymt".

oh yea? sorry for intruding to this blog as i've been reading this. yes,i knew the Kudrat Partner does exist.and they just DON'T know how to talk to people nicely. well i do realize that they are working for the bank as credit collector but cant they talk politely to the people who never miss their payment? they even call up and say "hey,what's your problem now.tell me so that i know why is the payment late this month" padahal i have mention a week earlier that my gaji will be in late for that month. SERIOUSly u guys does look alike registered ah long.call up the office and keep on marah marah (bukan bercakap tetapi marah marah) what the heck?
