My husbband working in Singapore is asked to open an account with UOB ( in s’pore)and the funny thing is, all other bank account will not do.That’s easy we will just go to this one bank to enquire will do. It really was a scam!! No such contest tie to them at all. It’s a fake game; i’m afraid once you’ve given your account number away, all your savings would be withdrawn instantly instead of getting a cent from the rubbish Lucky Draw!!!

The fake SMS msg goes like this:-

Congratulation!!! Your Sim Card get $7000 from PETRONAS. please call Petronas Centre: +6281339662456. http://www.petronas.com

Hey, i just received the text about half an bour ago. The price money is now RM30,000. the sender phone number is +60128647103 and the number to call is 0128403567. I knew it had got to be a scam thus I checked the net to confirm my suspicion. True enough!!

Is there anything we could do about this? I still get the scam message today after six months and the “call centre” is still working. Definitely someone somehow will get hooked someday.
