Tampines Singapore On going Rental Scam

Perhaps the OP may tell the Police a white lie

"sorry I make a mistake, the amount I was defrauded was 400k not 4k".

This would at least determine if the alleged amount is relevant as to whether the Police execute a criminal investigation.

No, but I almost wish when I had first come across this thread I had offered to resolve your problems and collect your money for you for $1000. I reckon I could have had you Western Union me the money and been spending it at a KTV before you even realized you'd been scammed twice.

you look like that only a scammer and great sympathier for cheater!!
Cannot wish any luck for your grand wishes just may you get your place where you deserve behind bars.

People do generally want to help, but you appear to ask lots of questions and take no actions. You even asked for the contact details of AGC when you could easily google the info. Then you still did nothing and said you would leave AGC as your last resort. So what's the point of giving you suggestions?

I can see everybody was very enthusiastic in the first few pages but then the enthusiasm died out because you kept moaning and took no actions.

I cannot jump the queue e.x. We cannot directly approach Supreme Court but level by level also each and every detail of case I cannot put in public domain. Not sure how you conclude I am ungrateful to the advices I am receiving. I knew their value and everyone will be happy if the scammer here will be behind bars. I am doing what should be done but cannot tell every bit here for sake of investigation as well.

Shame on this mockery of affaires!! Failed to understand it's something racial or any link to the culprit.

Does the sum of money (the amount in question) bear any relationship as to whether the Police get involved formally?

Forgive me if my question is naïve or missing the point.

from what I know, NO, if you mean men in blue turning up in patrol cars ....

uniform police don't get involved in Civil matters, disputes, ex. he said-she said, I transferred money but I want it back, or I gave money to the wrong guy and verbal arguments,I just don't like the way he talk/dress/smell/smile

for large scale cheating, there is commercial affairs division, and for corrupt practices, CPIB

Landlord and Tenant disputes are civil matters. However, a twist in the OPs case is that it's not clear what if any form of contract had been entered into (verbal, an e-mail, etc).

If there wasn't yet any form of contract, then perhaps it does fall under 'cheating' which appears to be a criminal matter.

Can you give us a break from your repeated racism please? It's bringing a bad vibe to the forum.

Interesting, not more than 2 months back there was a verbal argument in my condo and the patrol car came in. Even more interestingly, few years back we managed without any sweat to have a patrol car sent for and IP argument. IP - Intellectual property. The men in blue officers turned up to be very knowledgeable and completely supported our stand. I was truly impressed. Unlike this obvious case, people have very limited knowledge what kind of IP offense is criminal.

It means a lot how do you talk to the police, respond to their questions and how clearly you are able to explain the problem.

Lastly, I will be less euphemistic than in my previous post and tell you this: please stop spreading this rubbish. You can make people fail. Is this your intention?

yogaloungeforever,

Please stop antagonising OP, especially with your signature anti-Indian sentiment. OP's level of English is irrelevant to this discussion of him being cheated (and/or being unable to resolve this problem due to his attitude or circumstances).

It would be easier for others to take your inputs more seriously if you are more objective than this...

I wrote what I wrote from what I have seen and experienced

now if I yell at my neighbors that they placed a flower pot facing my door and that pot is reflecting bad energy, and they call the cops, cops will turn up and then what?

from my experience they will advice what can be done, and away they go.

they are not going to arrest me or my neighbors as this falls under civil dispute

likewise when a friend was harassed by phone by a guy he had a business deal that went bad my friend marched into the Orchard police station and demanded the police arrest the other guy

the police man on duty heard the whole story and recommended that my friend file a magistrates complaint as this is a civil matter

another friend transferred money to a guy and changed his mind as the item on offer wasn't what he wanted and decided to get a refund.

like above, Police advice was that it is a civil dispute ...

now if you feel I am feeding wrong info and the OP here deserves to get the police to arrest the landlord and throw the landlord into jail I differ to your opinion ...

the case here has a lot of missing details

for example what if the landlord maintains it was a personal loan? or the landlord insists the amount was for move in Next year? just many ifs ...

anyway I again will differ to your expertise
