scratch and win …more like scratch and LOSE!!!

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Me and my mum decided to have mcd for lunch.So we drove there without knowing that we could be *so lucky*

This young guy approaches us by giving us coupons to be scratch . He told us that we could be lucky enough to win a car and there is no terms and condition. To support his statement he even showed us newspaper cuttings of previous winners.

My mum rejected him a few times but we finally give in because we sympathy him. He told us that he is only doing this to earn more pocket money for himself. Each coupon that we stretch will earn him rm1 commission.
So I scratch one and I got this

*****CONGRATULATIONS*****

The guy was basically jumping up and down telling us that we are seriously lucky because we just won a brand new perdana

BUT in order to get the car, we have to go to their main office immediately to sign a contract and spend some money on their product.

My mum felt that it’s not safe to go to their office alone so we called dad. My dad told us that it is a scam and warn us not to follow any of his instruction…

So we told that young guy that we are not interested in getting a new car and left for lunch. That young guy was so distressing he stalk us all the way, he even interrupted our lunch!!!

Luckily me and my mum manage to escape when he is not looking.

I dint confirm it was a scam until I read an article in The Star..

Check this out, the story is almost similar as mine…

friendly teenagers do their part in scam


There are not winners only losers


Just beware guys! I know many of my friends who almost got cheated as well! Always remember that there is no free gift in life unless you scarifies something
