Mudah is an advertisement site and does not offer any kind of shopping experience. No, forget about safe shopping without being scammed. If you’re purchasing without thinking twice on Mudah, you will eventually end up being conned.
2 months ago I got conned exactly RM1750 to a fucking guy who claim to sell his used 13” MacBook Air. I was stupid, fucking stupid to fall for the too-good-to-be-true offer.
What’s the fucking big deal to lose RM1750? The fucking big deal here is that, All these fucking conman is a bunch of daredevil and Malaysian authority seems to be helpless. I have spoken to the inspector and officer from consumer tribunal, this is an ongoing issue that will not get solved easily.
Featured item on Mudah turn out to be a fraud
I saw Mudah happily publishes a fun fact: “meet our ad checking team!” I am glad they start the initiative to protect the buyers but is this enough? Will this deter fake ads on Mudah?
I wish this is a responsibility of any online company to protect their customers from harm; I want to dream that Malaysian government takes stern action on any online company for neglecting their responsibilities, with highest fraud cases as a gauge and a way to start investigating and implementing procedures to minimize customer being a victim of fraud from visiting sites like Mudah and others.
A message like the above won’t help much. Customers trust the site not the notice at the very bottom of the page! If the majority online community does not read T&C, do not expect they will read this message. A better implementation is much needed.
It all came down to “shop at your own risk” and I am sadden by this whole ordeal. Malaysian in general is known to be friendly and trustworthy but it seems the bad guys take advantage of this friendliness and trust.

Know the Fraudsters
These are red flag indicators that you are dealing with fraudsters;
- Seller always seems to be in a rush. They create urgency by telling you the item probably will be sold soon because he/she received many calls.
- Seller DID NOT have any internet presence. Do a search on social networks, example; Facebook with name and email. You will notice they do not own any profile.
- Seller calls you “bro or sis” for no apparent reason. Malaysian generally a very polite and friendly people. Fraudster abuse this friendliness by cheating your money. Be mindful when people call you bro or sis when they try selling you something.
- Watch out for item with no extra charges. Example; Courier service charges.
- Watch out for seller promises to use expensive courier service like DHL.
- Watch out for items half the price of the original market value. (This is to trick you into thinking that you really found a high value items with a super cheap price)
- Watch out for seller’s location and the language spoken. (You can tell by the slang if seller are from the said location)
- Watch out for seller’s name, the bank account’s name and the language spoken. (You can tell by the slang if the seller is a Chinese, Indian, Malay or others)
- Watch out for high ranking seller’s identity. Is he/she a higher ranking individual? Someone who deals with higher ranking individual? Example, working for Kastam, LHDN, Marine, dealing with oil & gas and etc… 9 out 10 are false identity.
- Watch out for payment/ transaction that are made one or two days before the weekend/holidays started. Fraudster fixed their modus operandi on weekends to avoid buyer suspicion. (If you thought your package would arrive on Tuesday (send out on Monday) the bad guys already run away with your money without your notice for the pass 5 days.)

Is it safe to book hotel accomodation (travel) with mudah.my? TIA
You can check to see if there’s official website for the said hotel. Normally hotel has an official website. Please do not book through Mudah when you see the price is cheaper than the official website.
If you still want to try your luck, you might want to call the hotel (via the official website) and enquiry for the details of the post posted on Mudah — ask the hotel, is the ads legit?
Good luck

Buyer also try to scam. He want me to transfer him rm500 so I can receive rm700. Think I am stupid or what.
His number 0166492648
Yup. Sometime the buyer is actually a scammer.
what happened??? i also received contact from this number to buy my item….
Scammer Emil. Don’t deal.
Giving my acc.no, email address. He said will make a tranfer… so i just wait…
He will likely just email you a fake transfer notification and hopes that you fall for it. The email will probably says it will take few days to clear and etc… he will just ask you to send the the item first or they ask you to pay to a certain account so that you can get your payment released asap instead of waiting for few days for the payment.
Good luck.

You maybe be falling for the scam trick. You should make a police report, send your report copy to the bank you made transfer from and to also to the bank the scammer’s use. Lastly, send a copy to Mudah. There’s probably nothing else you can do to retrieve the money unless you get the police and the bank help.
OK,i will make police report asap
Help me to share this forum,dont let him to scam other ppl. =(
Hi, any update for your item?
Careful with this scammer too
here it the phone number 60 12-821 7548.
Picture of a woman but when call it is a man voice. Doesn’t speak properly but sounds life south african
Ask me to pay Rm 300 before his transaction of my product I am selling to him can go through. A product worth less than Rm 300. Agent fee he says.
Agent name is Mohd Fairuz Idham Bin Kamal Faizal
But email is Toheeb Yisa scotiabank,
And Buyer email is Davidautum1997@gmail. But account owner is Yew Lee. Very confusing.
Please be careful as this was auto response email promising Rm 1000 while I selling below 200. Threaten with FBI, when I refuse then send me FBI tag with picture of an actor pic from Supernatural tv series.
Thanks for the head up!
i knw a scammer
his name is mUHD Asyraf Azlan
i got cheated today for RM130
i know whre he is now
PM me
Hi all,
Found this site after being scammed last week from mudah with an ad of a car selling below market. Was too eager to get it, hence bank in a booking for 500. After that..gone.
Thinking about a police report, they dont bother much n decided to hunt him by myself. With ic no, a lot of info can be retrieved…lambat laun akan ketemu jua.
Its only 500, if i find him & can’t get my money back, then his 5 fingers are going to be as cheap as 100 each.
I feel you. It’s just too frustrating.
I had this weird email from mudah.my informing me that i had successfully placed an item for advertisement when i cant remember if i even open an acc with mudah. Turn out somebody log in using my gmail address. Does this mean my email being compromised? I had checked my gmail device log and everything looks normal + I even got this 2 step security login. Puzzles me until now and also successfully making me paranoid.
Hi,
likely someone type in the wrong email address or some scammer try to use other people’s email to place and add.
You can delete the ad by following the mudah link that were send to you via email.
A guy ws me said that he interested with what i sell(( i sell kain batik)). He also told that he from Glasgow and ask me to pos it to his friend , from kedah. Then I asked for his friend’s details.
Name: Muhammad Akmal Aliff Bin Abd Rahman
Address: No 1748 lorong kempas, 7/2b taman kempas sungai
state:Kedah
City: Sungai petani
Country: Malaysia
Zipcode:08000
Bcs his number is a bit weird so i look up his friend’s details. Guess what, someone who also got scammed post exactly the same details. I already deleted our conversation. So to either buyer or seller out there, please beware. Always look up their details such as name, phone number, address and most secure their account number.
Don’t know why all the scammer ask seller to send to Kedah. Every time, someone call you and say please send to “somewhere” it’s a scam. If it says “send to Kedah” double confirmed it’s a scam.
Sigh
I
came across this ad “Britax Advocate Clicktight With ARB” RM1400
(shipment add RM100) by Kizy Mum on 6th Jan 2017, with the contact
number 0165073940. The post seems to be park under Pro Niaga.
have
a chat with the merchant in whatsapp and it was promising, showing the
actual product and packaging, hence i bank RM1500 to his bank account
111252037939 Maybank on 6/1/2017 with the name Amy Anak Nosen.
Item was promised to ship on friday, it never happen. On saturday it never happen.
He then told me no stock, hence i request a refund of the money. He agreed
but at this point of time, he still have not refund the money.
I did a search on the product and the company name again, seems all the ads has been removed.
I believe that Pro Niaga accounts was vetted by Mudah, sad to say Pro Niaga account are scammers as well.
Mudah will just wash hand and ask you go report and suck it up. Is your own problem and they are just platform provider.
Yes. Mudah will give you the standard reply and will not do anything about it. they are well covered by their user term use. The T&C allow them to wash hand.
I was cheated yesterday by a person selling samsung j7 cellphone. I transferred the money to his account but he did not ship the item and blocked me. but his phone is open and he is continuing cheating ppl with the same item selling to other people i ask my friend to check he is still dealing it.

Thanks for the info
Guys, there are ALOT of scamming going on in Mudah. I posted an item, 4 people immediately whatsapped me. Numbers starts at +234 . Do not give your details. They will ask for your bank account, email address and other details.. Please block them asap. Oh, and they will call you too. They will inform you that the will have an agent to pick up your item from your house etc etc.. PLEASE BE AWARE
Thanks for the head up. I have been receiving whatsapp messages from this crook, I block all of these people. However, I have never thought they would go to the extend of calling you making the whole thing so real. How things have change since I last posted this blog post — modus operandi upgraded to con more people.
OMG!i wish I could seen this message before,I just got the same thing,there r one guy immediately reply me after I posted my items,he asked for my account and email address,then I GAVE HIM already!how to do?r they going to hack my bank and email account?they can take the money from this way?why they ask these details?pls help…..:((((((
They likely trying to guess your password to your bank account. If you have easy password, you should change your password – your bank account, social media and email password itself. Please set up/ turn on two-factor authentication.
Other than that, probably do no harm. Just ignore them without engaging further. More details you give, the more profile they can build about you (Facebook is full of your personal details). That would be more harmful.
To protect yourself to sell online in the future, go to any social media you use (e.g FB) and type in the person phone number and search for it. Crook tend to hide their real identity and you can’t find them on social media.
I’m a seller. I sell old junks from my house. One buyer contacted me to buy my stuff. Last price RM50. And she said she is in Canada now. She will transfer me money if I’m willing to post to West Malaysia. And she said she’s willing to pay RM100 including postage. I feel suspicious. Is it safe to give her my account number and email address?
HI, sorry for the late reply. You don’t have to reply that buyer. it just another scam. later they will tell you, in order to get the payment from them you need to pay some fees. That’s where they will get you.

Am so sad coz I’ve been conned by a Mudah seller just two days ago after banking in RM1,110 for the iPad Air 2 she advertised. I thought she was genuine as she called me when I whatsapp her requesting for identification card to verify. She said she won the iPad in a lucky draw and as I was in a hurry to leave the house, she said she could wait till I got back to bank in the money. After banking in the money, she said she would give me the tracking number after sending it the next day. The next morning (yesterday) I waited till 11am and texted her but no reply. I then called her number but the phone was turned off till today:'( Can I get the details of the seller through the bank they used to make a report against her? What else can I do?
I hope you have made a police report
nothing happens after police report though! oh well, lesson learned
I have the similar experience. No news from the police after the report. There will be no follow up what so ever.
Mean while, the scam continue to happen.
May i know is this company “SaveBudget Electronic Store” on mudah.my reliable? the person-in-charge kept delaying the parcel.
If you haven’t received your parcel, I guess its a fake. make a police report and complain to muddy if you have not done so.
I had scam by seller in Mudah last month with purchase LV bags RM1, 340.00. The phone is disconnected and no reply on whatsapp. Had report to Mudah but can’t do anything from their side. Advice to make a police report and I think this is the only way to settle.

In this world we have to be extremely careful.
Don’t jump to conclusion when the deal is easy, fast , cheap.
You want to meet the Seller or make sure is a trusted one, have a real shop, can google his name ,……
I have seen plenty of Scams from Commodity business in The Philippines to e-commerce.
the most popular the platform , the higher the danger.
Mudah is also No.1 for Scams, as all go with the numbers
Carousel.com in Singapore, now in Malaysia has the same problem and particularly in malaysia.
Younger platform like Meshopshop (www.meshopshop.com ) are less popular, smaller and they are still able to truck&trace the Scammers before the damage start.
They all act the same way and with the same story.
Often is a copy past procedure to get fast as their return is probably a very tiny percentage.
So, : report, stay away from fantastic deals, look and compare on other platforms.
Often the Seller post on many different marketplace to increase their exposure.
I just lost RM80. I know that doesn’t seem much but I so happen to see this post. There’s a guy name Hisyam acc.BSN selling fallout 4 from mudah it was so cheap it was to good to be true. I honestly was really stupid to give him the money. After passing him he said he posted the item to me but asked for the receipt of the courier. Then he blocked me from WhatsApp n never return my calls. Again RM80 doesn’t sound alot to anyone out there but it is to me. Is there a way I can report to the police?
http://www.mudah.my/vi/47296443.htm
0300741000166860- acc no.
Go to a police station make a report. print out the ads so its easy for you to make a report. Give the report to the bank account the scammer use (BSN bank) and also a copy to Mudah. Just email to Mudah.
Thanks Rathtar for the advice.

I trust that kid because of his name Ramadan hehe then he told me to post the item the next day, then tak jadi,goes to next day then it has been 2 weeks the item not be sent.whatsapp no longer reply and call never answer.. Moral of the story..don’t judge the people by its name ..
You can see the item
http://www.mudah.my/Samsung+s3-46980134.htm
Selamat Hari Raya, Wan!
Aye, Ramadan does sound like a good kid. Please report the Ramadan kid, so Mudah knows about it. More people will get conned if the ads are still there.
Also, if the number can still be contacted, please make a police report and then go to Consumer Tribunal for help. The last time I consulted Consumer Tribunal, I was informed they can track down the person and ask for refund.
Face to face is the key when you want to buy items that you are interested on Mudah.
Good Luck!
did Consumer Tribunal manage to help?
Consumer Tribunal would be more helpful if the scammer was a registered company. If it was a person, you need somewhere to get the person details where the letter of demand/ court summons to be delivered. If you can’t deliver the letter and acknowledged received by the person who cheat you, it’s a dead end.
I already got scammed today with rm2500 lost to a scammer after he said that sorry boss the actuap price of the item is 2850+120 postage then is shock me, that l moment i knew i got scammed. .a razer blade 14 at rm2500. .it was ignorance for me to trust easily at that adv. Mudah should strict the selling procedure. .
Hi Darell,
Please do a police report and also give a copy of the police report to Mudah.
So sorry you have to lost so much money.

I think I’m being SCAM BY MUDAH SELLER… I paid half of the item price and promise to make full once the item arrive (MSI GT70 2QE DOMINATOR PRO LAPTOP) He told me he sold it at low price because needed money for coming Hari Raya. Supposedly sent via poslaju yesterday Friday but I contact him at evening, he said Tak Jadi Bro since his wife dont trust me bcuz dint pay full price.. and promise to refund me the same day before night.. Today I contacted him many times.. more than 10 times to be precise, engage calls and NO TEXT REPLY/WHATSAPP.. I already do a report to Mudah but seem no response as Weekdays. This will be my 1st and last buying item from MUDAH.COM.MY the site must be shutdown!!!
That is just sucks!
Many of us walk into the trap, thinking we can get a cheaper price and we fall for the scam instead.
Do face to face meeting, bro.
Never ever buy the item that can’t not check & see before you buy!!
TAKE NOTE!!!
True
Can someone check this account for me. I want to know whether the given account is fake or not.

Hi, I think you better go see the person. FACE to FACE. Never buy any items from Mudah that will be ship to you. This people always scam you!
If you want something to be ship to you, go buy from Lelong.
He is a conned man !!!
I just got cheat by him today…Feeling frusrated now.
Was tinking how to get back my money..
Does anyone know how ?
Can i lodge police report, then using tat report go to bank ask for refund and freeze dis cheater account ?
Please if someone can advise me..Thanks
Report to mudah make sure they remove all his other ads so that others don’t get cheated. You have to keep pushing them on it. They are quite slow. But that’s all mudah can do. Best you make a police report.
Does anyone here tried before to get back the refund from bank after the police report and will the bank freeze the scammer bank account ?
Anyone have dis experience ??
No experience. I learn my lesson I do not buy anything from mudah especially if it is not cash on delivery. They do not protect their customers like ebay, lazada or lelong.
Mudah.com should only deal “Cash on Delivery”…
Otherwise, better shut down the website..
Or else, it will create more scamming case and more and more victim only…
My 1st time ever in Mudah.com and that will be my last time…
i will say NO to Mudah.com
Thanks Ann for Sharing…
I did call the bank and ask them though if its possible to freeze the cheater’s bank account but they said can’t do it without police report. Mudah took 2 weeks to reply my email and remove that Akmal’s other ads. By then another person got cheated by him as well. Mudah doesn’t seem like they care.
I think i better go lodge police report tomolo…
At least i got the report and go bank freeze that scammer account..
Our country should come out a law to punish all those scammer, for eg,
Block their name in CCRIS report so that they cannot open anymore bank account…Otherwise, those scammer will keeps on opening bank accounts just like a King and continue scam ppl…
Sigh……WHERE IS THE LAW !!!!
If possible i think i will bring along the police report and report it to Bank Negara, so that Bank Negara can take the actions on it….Block from opening any bank account in future…
Report in Mudah kinda waste energy and useless bcos they too slow take reponse to remove and meantime there can be many ppl ady kena from the scammer…So better straight away go lodge police report, then go bank ask to freeze the acc then only proceed to Bank Negara to report all dis….
Yes Rachel. That is a good idea.
Those people whom get conned should act in dis way too…
Lodge Police Report —> Go Bank to ask for freeze account —> Cont go Bank Negara to report is a scam so tat Bank Negara will blacklist tat fellow name from future bank borrowing and account opening etc…
This is the only way we can do to punish those scammer since there is no Law on it…
Hi Rachel. Did u make a police report manage to freeze the scammer’s bank account? I checked with a police friend. He said usually in cases like this police will take their own sweet time n handle it because its a small case n we won’t get our money back. So I told him its not so much of getting back the money but making sure no one else gets cheated. He said no point. These scammers will continue cheating people using different names.
Omg, this guy is fake ? He selling a lot of cheap’s camera products on mudah
huhu….i also got conned by him ;( ;( ;(..
i am a student…rm1000 is a lot of money…arghhhhhhhh

Pauu(some stupid amature adult who trust to deep for this Asshole GUY)
Hi Pauu. Make a police report and inform mudah so that if anymore ads more that person they can remove it and ensure no one else gets cheated. I got cheated too by a guy name Akmal Danial Bin Esa last month. Paid but after few days item never send and don’t answer my calls. He even cheated another person. After several emails to mudah finally they removed all his other ads. I don’t know why I can’t seem to find his details here now. I included everything so no one else gets cheated by him. CIMB bank 01160068694528 Maybank 151240201809 his bank details. It’s always best to do a search on the person first before making any payment.
yea, i felt u too Ann is it so harsh how could they could do this to us victim don’t they feel guilty on cheating people hard earning money haiizz just next time try dun’t bought anything from Mudah will do thx for your advice
Hi Pauu, have you made a police report? Any updates?
Because the person still can be contacted you can get the police help to trace the guy and get the police to get back your money.
You can also consult consumer tribunal for help, https://ttpm.kpdnkk.gov.my/portal/index.php/en/
Hi Rahtar, i already make a police report but doesn’t seem any action from the police since that guy is from sabah i think only sabah police can take action against him and this guy he reply me say he will promise to bank in back my money well i think s is bullshit yet eh say he need some time to gather money and payback i feel like he try to make a joke with me or what well thing jsut happened unpleasant way i am jsut hope that i could get back my money that all but thx for the tips
Did you go to Consumer Tribunal for help? They have their own investigation officer that can track down the person.
As always, all these government departments are set-up to help the community, but I am guessing it’s not very helpful when they need to do the manual works for you. I have lost RM1650 yet, the department didn’t really help me.
You still can try your luck at Consumer Tribunal despite my bad experience.
I got scam of smart tag RM100 by the one called
Ms. Shima 011-3939 8759
&
Ms. Shakuntala 016-675 5414
Maybank Account Number : 112223254364
After i did the online transfer RM100 then they reply so fast saying no money being deposited to their account.Thereafter they say they hv good faith in me and already wanting to post me the item but need me to do an instant cash transfer RM100 again first. The previous transaction they say will help contact the bank and refund me then money.
I already sense this is a scam. I didn’t fall for it the second time. I contacted the bank and the bank given me confirmation that the first bank in was clear. I forwarded the message to her and then the handphone is switch off.
I persistently chase Shakuntala and now the ad is being remove from mudah.my too.
Please beware of these two scammer.
Hi, please make a police report and forward the information to bank and as well Mudah.
Thanks
Yes do email Mudah. I reported on the guy that cheated me three twice but Mudah didn’t bother to take any action. His ads are still online and just found out another person got cheated. Continuously email Mudah and make them take action. If not Mudah will just ignore all of us and more people will get cheated.
I meant * three times. Sorry so tension typed wrongly. I just cannot believe people go around cheating other people’s hard earn money no matter how big or small. I hope they will be punished badly.
I also got cheated. Beware of AKMAL DANIAL BIN ESA, Bought an Ipod through him but never send it and also now ignoring my calls and messages. Used another person to call him. He wanted to cheat that person too by saying he got other things to sell.

He still hasnt delivered my item. Would like to get in touch with you to collectively report to commercial crime dept, bank negara or the two banks..
Hi Sue. What item did you buy from him? I have reported on him three times to Mudah and also told them to delete all his other ads so that no one else gets cheated. But Mudah has yet to reply to me. It’s been a week. I tried calling mudah too but number always busy. How do I contact you?
Hey, can you share the experience how you being cheated on buying the macbook air? Because i am also looking for macbook in mudah.com
Thanks
Hi,
Long story. My advise to you, just don’t trust anything you see on Mudah unless you see the real thing.
Face to face with your seller. Don’t transfer money to your seller no matter how desperate you want the item.
I also have been cheated by them…RM 250 for xiaomi mi4…this is the person account bank
164726042720 eka andes putra (maybank)

Hi,
So sorry to hear that. I have not come across people went to court for this, maybe there is but pretty rare I guess. I’m not sure.
The matter of the facts;
1) We have no knowledge of what to do to bring this people to court
2) Some fraudster uses stolen account to do this transaction and even the bank and Mudah block this account, the real fraudster still roam free.
We need the government to step in to protect the online consumer; a very bright and intelligence government officer to rethink the process of online shopping.
Feeling sore about losing RM550 to an aircon scam!

Sorry last post mobile number shud be 019 2220819 belonging to Haji Kader Maiden bin Mohamed.
Please make a police report and send a copy of police report to BSN for their further action.
I got con of rm200 being deposit by haji Kader Maiden bin Mohamed ic no 681030106663. This was for purchase of iPhone 6 and happened on 21aug15. i bank into his BSN account 101262900013862. Now his (+6) 0126639370 is off with no reply
I got con of rm 200 being deposit for iPhone 6 plus. The con men name in Mudah advert is Kader Maiden Bin Mohamed with ic no 681030106663. We are suppose to meet to complete transaction
. but now his hp is off, no answer. This happen on 21aug15.
I just got a scam too today, they all often call you sis and bro. Shits, feel that I am so stupid. They all have tricks, will sure say 100 percent sure and guaranteed, then making you pay first payment, and making stories to con you more money.
First their entry price is ridiculously lower than market price, and they are making stories to make you believe them and calling you sis.
They said no shipment charges, and later said got what courier charges have to pay another 400.
Ok still, fine.. Then later on making stories say her delivery man took the wrong pack and there are more devices in it, so her boss very worry also ask you to pay 10% to assure them.
Like very true story.
Ok, when payment made, then said guaranteed will delivered by today this and that.
Suddenly said, his delivery man missed his flight asked you to pay compensate if not they will not deliver.
By that time, Have been cheated for almost 3k.
And the stock takes forever to arrive.
Later on, they said they are student or married woman won’t cheap you.
But when you try to call them, none is available. You can just what’sapp or Facebook them.
They even sent you their ic, but dunno it’s real.
So, in the end, they turn the story back said you didn’t paid for the 10 percents, that’s why they ask the delivery man to stop.
Said will refund then won’t refund back the money, in the end keep on making stories.
First time experience this, seriously damn it! Never ever buy from a non trusted one especially those you didn’t know.

For your case, you can make a police report and then file for tribunal claim. The guy still accepting your call, you might still be able to retrieve your money with tribunal help.

Please make a police report and then email a copy to CIMB so they can take appropriate action in the said account.
Thank you jong. I will do it. Is there any possibility to get the money back?
Hi Stephen, I don’t want to be negative but it’s seem there’s no hope to recover the money.
Maybe someone who are very connected to the authority and willing to help, it’s no way to recover.
Sadly, I never got back my money and so are everyone that commented here.
Like everyone else we make police report and that’s where the whole thing end.
Maybe we should ask our PM what to do with all the money that this scammer got away, and they should be paying GST too.
The bank cannot freeze the account?? Since he use current account?? Sure can trace back that person rite? Bank should help us..
The bank can freeze the account but we do not know what is the bank’s procedure. They can not simply freeze an account unless they have a supported documents and authorise to do so.
if you notice, this is exactly the problem. By the time you filed a complain after 24hours, getting your report from police to the bank; the scammer already long gone with your money.
As to why the police can’t really catch the bad guy? long story, it is safe to say; police forces have their own hard time. Let’s not drill about why police in Malaysia sucks because in other country the same thing can happen and the police officer in other country also facing the similar trouble.
Its my mistake to never check properly before do the transaction. Not to blame anyone. A good expensive lesson. I feel very down from morning and thank you Jong for your help. God bless you
Please make a police report and then inform the bak about this. You might still have some hope, who knows?
You have a good day!

Hi, I didn’t think I have an active tread here. Anyway, it’s hard to know if the account even belong to this crook. It could be a stolen account.
How’s the police report going? As for mine nothing happen what so ever.
The Malaysian authority are pretty much taking this kind of fraud simple. You complain they will note it done and ask you if you want to go tribunal. If you do, your case pretty much end up dead either way.
The crooks got their money and happy ever after. They will do it again immediately after each case and each time they probably get away with it succinctly.

BTW, to say the police cannot locate the fraudster is not totally true. If the police really want to catch they can pin point the fraudster quite easily. I say these based on my first hand experience with a Loan Shark.
Once a Loan Shark has a run-away client, all he did was call his internal connection inside his run-away client mobile phone operator and ask them to locate his run-away client, to my surprise they could pin point him to his exact location in real time. (for more info google: mobile phone tracking)
If a Loan Shark can trace the phone number with just one phone call, imagination what the police can do.
Well I am just frustrated our police say that they “cannot” do anything about it. In reality they just “do not” want to do anything about it.
Felt being fucked left and right by the fraudster and the police force.
i think i just got cheated of rm 1,400 for a samsung note 3 deal… because after banking in into that seller’s account… he has not picked up his phone… Now im aimless.. dont know what to do… but that guy emailed me a copy of his IC though… how?
Hi Lyn,
Try to have this info on hand in case the guy really did not get back to you. If you email Mudah.my – they will ask you to prepare these infos as well (info below)
1. The item purchased / Ad title
2. Ad Link
3. Advertisers email address
4. Advertisers contact/phone number
5. Advertisers name as per ad
6. Location of advertiser as per ad
7. How much money/cash was paid
8. Bank name, Account number, Account holders name
9. How was the transaction done, date and time
10. Copy of the Bank-in slip/receipt
Mudah.my then will send you an email basically telling you they will cooperate with the police and that’s all they can do. They will not release any other info without police request.
Also, Mudah.my will remind you again that they have given notice on their site that the customer should not pay the seller up front. Whatever, Mudah hold no responsibility and meanwhile, Mudah.my will be in business as usual.
As for the IC you have from the guy; chances are they are fraud or fake IC. Police may or may not be able to use it to catch the guy. If you happen to have a real IC although it doesn’t belong to the fraudster, maybe police still can trace back the bad guy.
Doing a police report at this time (less than 24-48hours) can be tricky. The police basically will question if the guy was on its way courier the thing to you and if you do the report was a little bit too early. Anyway, If you’re sure, you should just do the report and see how the police can help you from here. (Do share your story so we all know what happen)
My Request for my research on my blog:
1. Would you be able to provide the the fraudster Bank Name, Bank Account Number? I would like to list it here so people do not bank in to the same account and got cheated.
2. When did you bank in to the fraudster? (Monday, Tuesday, wednesday…?)
3. Do you bank in cash or internet transfer? If internet transfer, did the Fraudster request using “Instant Interbank Fund Transfer” aka IBG
I like to collect the above info to understand how a fraudster operates and hopefully people can shop online with basic understanding how a fraud can happen online.
Thank you and I wish you all the best, hopefully the police would able to do something about your case.
The guy didn’t get back to me at all. Not answering my calls nor text messages. I have already reported to the police. The Inspector would like to meet me on Monday for further info.
The saddest part is his IC matches his Bank Account. So I thought it must be legit, you see.
As for your research for your blog, answers as below:
1. Bank Name: Maybank
Bank Account Number: 1128 9309 2885
Name of person: Muhammad Imran bin Abdullah
I/C Number: 760719-12-5317 (I even have a softcopy of his I/C)
2. I banked in on Thursday evening, 5.19pm.
3. No. Cash deposit.
Apparently he said he works in the Customs Department in Port Klang. Any the item I was about to purchase is a confiscation item, hence the price being cheap.
He said if I do not trust him, he will e-mail me his I/C. Which he did e-mailed. So the name on the I/C matches the owner’s bank account name as well. So I though it’s legit and proceed. After that, I have been calling him but he is not picking up at all.
Tried other numbers to reach him as well but failed.
So I guess no matter how convincing a person might sound, it’s best not to trust that easily. And this is really an expensive lesson learnt for me.
I understand what you mean. I can’t believe I fell for one and It’s an expensive lesson for me too.
Thank you for your feedback and I have updated a little bit more infos on this blog.
It seems the bad guy found a way to use other people account to scam customer’s money and got away with it without being caught.
Tomorrow, (I assume) the inspector will ask you what you want to do; do you want to catch the guy or do you want to get your money back. I was asked by the inspector and I have to admit I’m not sure what I want. I ended up telling the inspector I want my money back.
Catch the guy or get your money back; either way, it’s a time consuming process for the enforcer. I can tell you, most of the police got so sick of this internet scamming thing.
Anyway, my case has since been 2 months old. So far, I haven’t heard back from the police.

Meanwhile, the scammer has gotten bigger stomach and gained many pounce of cholesterol. I pity the bad guy for putting themselves at risk of cardiovascular disease, which can include coronary heart disease, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease. Diabetes and high blood pressure would follow soon. That can be a real mess. I hope they have enough scamming money to cheat death.
Yeah. I gotta agree with what you have said. I think there’s nothing much they can do actually. Even if they catch the guy, so what? My money will never be returned. Pfft! How much you got cheated again?
I guess whatever happens here on earth, remains on earth. Just hope that guy rots in hell. That’s all I can say la.
I feel like opening a website to bring Mudah.my and Lelong.com down. As in, a more reputable website where people can actually trust and I make sure things are monitored so there will be no scam happening! I really want to do so! So that no one will have to go through what we have been through. The feeling sucks. So much!
