Another Scam !

Woman loses RM33,000 in envelope lucky draw scam

JOHOR BARU: A 32-year-old assistant administrative officer claims that she was conned of RM33,000 after being promised prizes, including a brand new car and a trip for two to Hong Kong.

The woman, who only wished to be known as May, said a man called Alvin had approached her at Jalan Station last Saturday and asked her to open one of several envelopes to find out if she had won any prizes

“I opened the envelope and was told that I had won a jade mattress and that I needed to follow him to his office in Permas Jaya to pick up the prize. At the office, Alvin introduced me to his boss called Lim,” she told a press conference organised by Johor Baru MCA Youth chief Kua Song Tuck here yesterday.

Lim offered her other prizes, including a new Toyota Camry and a trip for two to Hong Kong if she participated in a lucky draw. She, however, had to pay RM33,000 to secure the prizes.

“I withdrew the money and Alvin took it while I was talking to Lim. I asked for my money back but instead, Lim give me a water filter, microwave oven, a jade mattress and other electronic items,” she said, adding that she felt cheated and lodged a police report at Permas Jaya police station.

Johor Baru (South) OCPD Asst Comm Zainuddin Yaakob confirmed the case and said the matter has been transferred to the Johor Domestic Trade and Consumerism Department for further action.

Have a nice day ... :)

Lend a helping hand ?! anyone ?!

Well , read first ...

Subject: Island Hospital warning ! Pls read n pass on
For your information. ( Very Urgent )
If you see a guy (especially Indian) who rides a motorbike with a
bloody hand knocking on your window demanding you to stop and asking
for tissue paper to clean the blood when you are driving a car,
remember DO NOT stop the car at all. Even if he damages your car or
holds the side mirrors tightly, DO NOT stop the car but drive directly
to the nearest police station. This kind of criminal tactics have been
reported in about 40 cases in Seremban, K. Lumpur, Shah Alam, P.Jaya
and Klang Town police stations (actually around the whole country).
These guys are mainly Indian gangsters, They work in a group and dare to
commit this crime even in crowded areas where nobody will dare to stop
the car to help you. The main purpose of this dirty tactic is to rob
you and/ or even commit rape if you are female driver driving alone.
Please forward this message to the people you care about.

For real or just a joke ? well , for you to judge . Sorry to say but i think in this world nowaday , its dangerous to be kind hearted . Im sure you all understand what i mean . Alot of criminal target our kind heart to help people to their advantage . From cheating money for donation till cheating you to let down of your guard against a stranger AND attack you , rob you and so on ... ( you can continue imagine how bad it can be ) . Because of more and more such reported case and circular e-mail mentioning such thing , it makes the world a hard place to get help ( as for real danger , emergency or real needs ) when you need one . I do understand , its better to prevent than to cure .....

Just try to be smart as possible , but if you are really that bad luck , here's some tips i found from e-mail , to share with you all out there .

TIPS FROM USA POLICE This is a good reminder for all of us.You can never Read this too many times!
1 .Tip from police: The elbow is the strongest point on your body.If you are close enough to use it, do!
2 .If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse, DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM.
Toss it away from you....chances are that he is more interested in your Wallet and / or purse than you and he will go for the wallet or purse.RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!
3 .If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car:
Kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy. The driver won't see you but everybody else will. This has saved lives.
4 .Women have a tendency to get into their car after shopping,eating,working,etc., and just sit (doing their check book, or making a list, etc.) DON'T DO THIS! The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side, put a gun to your head, and tell you where to go..

AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR, LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.

5 .A Few Notes About Getting Into Your Car In a Parking Lot,or Parking
Garage:

A. Be aware: look around you; look into your car, at the passenger
Side floor, and in the back seat. (And check out under the car as you
Approach.)

B.If you're parked next to a big van you should enter your car from
The passenger door. Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the women are attempting to get into their cars.

C. Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle and the
passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car,you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)

6.ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. (Stairwells are
Horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot).
7 .If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control,ALWAYS
RUN! The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; And even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ, RUN!
8 .As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP IT! It may get you raped, or killed. Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking,well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women? He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked'for help' into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim.
9. Someone just told me that her friend heard a crying baby on her porch the night before last, and she called the police because it was late and she thought it was weird. The police told her 'Whatever you do, DO NOT open the door.' The lady then said that it sounded like the baby had crawled near a window, and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get run over

The policeman said, 'We already have a unit on the way, whatever you do,DO NOT open the door.'

He told her that they think a serial killer has a baby cry recorder and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone dropped off a baby. He said they have not verified it, but have had several calls by women saying that they heard baby cries outside their doors ! when they're home alone at night. Please pass this on! and DO NOT open the door for a crying baby.

This e-mail should probably be taken seriously because the Crying Baby theory was mentioned on: America's Most Wanted this past Saturday when they profiled the serial killer in Louisiana.

Please forward this to all the women you know.It may save a life. A candle is not dimmed by lighting another candle. I was going to forward this to the ladies only, but guys, if you love your mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, etc., you may want to pass it on to them, as well.

Well , i hope this can give some clue on how the criminals do , as well as some tips to protect and safe yourself . Stay alert all the time , and pray that one day , the world could be a safer place for all of us . :)

This is an interesting movie , showing Chen Zhen fights in a war in France during World War One where china won the war for England and France .

End climax of this movie is when Chen Zhen fights with the Japanese General , the son of the Japanese whom Chen Zhen killed last time during the Dojo fight . I think this movie will have sequel , which my friend told me that Chen Zhen will die ( which he still alive in this ending ) . Lets wait and see .

I would give this movie 6/10 for nice action , funny , and Chen Zhen's cool body ! :P

Rojak-king

Well , its been so long since i blog bout something else than movie ( for Nuffnang contest :D ) cos there is nothing i feel interesting to blog with . Or perhaps , i become lazy to blog , lazy to go out . Especially when thing is not moving my way or going as it should be . Things been hard on me since the last April , barely hanging on . Mr luck is away or out of town , wondering when he'll come back by my side . For the past few months , all for me is to replace , restore , change the bad things / broken things away to functional things = money fly away . Apart from few malfunctional handphone parts , burned desktop motherboard , an "innocent" court case , lose laptop , work sales drop , tyre puncture , minor car scratchs etc , there is still abit luck with me . From getting free movie invites from Nuffnang till some consolation price from Microsoft SMS Craze contest , getting myself few MCD voucher , few Micro SD Card and Pendrive from few time sms questions .



Other rojak talk of mine would be asking everyone who pass by the Times Square Bridge ( which connect from times square - sg wang / imbi plaza ) to ignore all those illegal youngster who ask for donation or buy things ! IGNORE THEM PLEASE ! COS THEY ARE D*MN ANNOYING and RUDE ! Beside of not having the proper legal company for donation , i heard they used the rude words to scold those who stop listen buy didn't buy or pay the donation . they will stop infront of the ladies to stop them and im sure they scared alot of girls ! not to mention , they are there for 7days a week , whole month , for at least half year already . ( i know cos i need to pass there everyday for work ) i hope by having everyone " not paying their illegal salary " they have to stop one day to blocking the place .

Continue with , lately , i can see there is alot of "don't know guys or girls" everywhere around city area , in quite a wast number . Until sometime i don't know i should call the lady who dress 99% boys "sir , MR , or miss " . Don't know weather i should call those big size and 100% guys look who dress 99% girl dress with handbag and long hair "miss or ... " . The world is changing ... sigh ... P/S : totally my own feeling . nothing to do with discriminating anyone , group or trend . Totally complaining and talking to me , myself and i "

Last of all , there is alot of CACAT people now in the world . Cacat as in heart and mind , not body part . Let me explain . I call them CACAT all because lately i can see alot of people take Elevator just for one floor causing the elevator ( better known as LIFT ) stop every single floor !!! @#$%^&*
Ok , i forgive you if some were pushing stock trolley / baby trolley but there is alot , i repeat , THERE IS ALOT OF YOU OUT THERE , who just can't take escalator and have to step in LIFT to go UP/DOWN just for one floor causing the lift JAM !!! some even willing to wait 10 - 20 minutes to go down 1 floor ! GOD help this people . seen alot at times square 4 lift side , where people wait more than 5minutes from 1st floor go down Ground Floor ! d*MN ! Not to mention those in Plaza Low Yat ! Most funniest lift event i saw , this pakistan , pushing trolley , entering from 2nd floor pushing 2nd floor button ! FCUK !

So you , yes you , exercise abit , don't be cacat all the time , take the escalator if you just want to move up/down one floor . ( i do understand and forgive you if you are new to the place and not familiar with the mall ) . To those who always think of "malas" and wait lift to go up/down 1 floor where escalator is only few steps away , GOD BLESS YOU !

Well , that is all in my mind for tonight . Just hope things will be better tomorrow , and wish everyone will be nice and think smartly ( don't support those illegal ) , and also not being cacat ( slowing the lift down ) .

Good night and wish all you good luck :D

This is my tickets for the movie thanks to Nuffnang .
Actually i tried to reach early for the freebies of Resident Evil for early bird from Nuffnang but due to the heavy rain and jam , i reach there around 8.15PM and the line for Nuffnang is amazingly long ! Guess everyone is trying to get something extra :P
Before entering this movie , we have to deposit all of our device that can capture video to the counter deposit counter ( even handphone with camera ) and to be collect back after the movie . they even use scanning device to scan bag and our pockets just in case we try to hide something inside for recording . The movie start around 9.40PM and end around 11.20PM .

The movie is quite nice , and i think the 3D effect is quite good and i can feel the 3D for the whole movie . only one thing i noticed is that , the plane is amazingly small when it fly . :P

This is a RECOMMENDED movie to watch for the year . I will give 8/10 for this movie especially for the nice 3D effect .

For the plot of the movie , i think its better for you all to go to watch and experience yourself .
