Jean’s birthday @ Lookout Point, Cheras (2007)

Chai recommended a “very nice environment place” in Cheras for Jean’s birthday where you “can see the lights in KL.”

“Oh? Little Genting?” Where the couples love to make out there because it was dark, high up but don’t have to travel up to Genting.

“No.. it’s another side.”

Then Nat also suggested Japanese buffet but she’d had to ask Joel first. Joel had chased after Nat previously but Nat only treated him as a friend (and Japanese buffet member supplier). There was no reply from Joel, probably because he was fed up with Nat only calling him when she wanted to eat Japanese buffet at lower price or he wanted more space for his life since Nat had a boyfriend already..?

So we met up somewhere in Cheras and then Chai directed us to the place – there is only 1 way up and down. Chai was so nice to ask people to fetch me :) but I asked Sam if she’d fetch me since she always hangout at her “potential in-laws” place, near my place. Before she replied me, TBone called me and offered to fetch me! :D Great friends I got! Then Sam replied so I called back TBone no need to fetch me :) because he’d had to come through the tol.

This time, Sam’s boyfriend came along and drove us there. Everyone was late due to the traffic jam and rain. That place had so few lights that we had to rely on cars’ lights. Luckily I had eaten some dinner.. but I drank a gulp of apple cider vinegar so that I would be hungry by the time I reach there hehe.

I’ve won RM 14 000!

Ha? I didn’t enter any Petronas contest :p So this has to be a scam.

I checked the number it was from.. +62 ? I remember +65 is Singapore so +62 has to be somewhere in SEA? Googled 006285880214502, nothing. Googled Petronas contest sim and the 1st result was SMS CONTEST SCAM

Aha. I checked the website for contact to inform them but the navigation sucks! There’s no scrollbar and I couldn’t see the words for each images unless I view it under Full Screen (F11). Contact Us page was blank! *shake head* 1 of the worst sin in web is displaying a blank page. Even the 404 error message is better than blank page.

Why do so many people get sucked into losing thousands of $ from such scams? How to know which is legit?

If you had bought something from the company and was contacted after that, that you’ve won a contest, this could be true. You can always call back the company’s HQ if there’s such contests as there are contests where you are automatically qualified like Maybankcard’s. It’s usually credit/charge and ATM cards that have this kind of automatic qualify contests because they have your info when you swipe the card during payment. However, if you need to purchase something more to get the prize, then it’s a scam.

If you were contacted and you didn’t buy anything from that company, this is a scam!!
