Hi Gilbert
I’m 23 this year. A mother of one. I’ve just gotten myself a full time job last week.
Due to long period of unemployment, I have used up my savings for my daily expenses and for my child. My hubby is working too but he’s not earning much.
Basically, we split the cost of our child’s expenses. I was really in need of loan last week and couldn’t find any friends to help me. I even turned to family/relatives for help but I got turned down too.
I tried going to licensed money lenders but were rejected due to my unstable monthly income for the past 6 months.
Yesterday I came across this post on gumtree saying this guy is able to help with urgent loan, no income proof, no minimum monthly income needed.
Here’s the real shit, he needed me to get a new mobile plan and in return, he’ll compensate me $800. This guy took the high end plan at StarHub because the handset was free, so he just had to pay $35 for the SIM card activation.
After promising me to compensate me at 11pm yesterday, he went missing. Blocked my numbers etc and I’m stuck with the $220 bill monthly which I’ve to cover for him.
If I were to terminate the plan, I have to pay a termination fee of $1200.
