47-year-old Aloi Gregory Marshall, was sentenced to 12 weeks imprisonment on 19 October after pleading guilty to obtaining explicit services of a minor.

He had paid an underaged girl that he met on Sugarbook $1,000 to engage in intercourse with her despite being told that she wasn’t 18-years-old yet.

The identity of the victim cannot be revealed due to a court order.

What happened?

In early 2021, Marshall was browsing the Sugarbook website (a website that matchmakes women with men who are willing to pay for their time) to look for companionship.

He then saw the victim’s profile on the website, claiming to be 18-years-old, and they then chatted on Sugarbook before moving their conversation onto Telegram.

Aloi asked the girl if she was 18 and she replied that she was turning 18 in December.

He then offered her $1,000 for a 2 hour session where they would have intercourse twice, and the girl agreed, and they then met in April 2021 at his home where they had intercourse.

He then left $1,000 by her bag for her services and she took the money before leaving his home.

Later that month, Aloi then reached out to her again on Telegram asking her if she wanted to meet up again, and they then tried to arrange but couldn’t find an available date.

He then contacted her twice in May asking if she was free to meet up but didn’t get a response from her.

Aloi is set to begin his jail term on 16 November after his request to defer his jail term to settle personal matters was approved.

Facebook user Hrmn Wong shared how he booked a 3 days 2 nights staycation at the Marina Bay Sands Hotel for his girlfriend but they broke up and he is now looking to sell the staycation for a much lower price.

He said that he decorated the room with roses, champagne, chocolates, balloons and “I love you” signs only for their relationship to end.

He said that he was devastated and that his dreams are broken, and that he has no one to go on the staycation with except for “myself and myself and only myself.”

He is offering to sell his staycation for only $750, and a quick search online shows that the room costs at least $699 per night, meaning the staycation is worth at least $1.4k.

Here is what he said

19-year-old Sylesnar Seah Jie Kai, who is being accused of murdering his father in Yishun, appeared in a district court yesterday (19 October) via video link.

He has been remanded for a further 3 weeks for psychiatric assessment, and his case has been adjourned to 9 November.

Recap

47-year-old Eddie Seah Wee Teck was previously reported to have been allegedly killed by his 19-year-old son Sylesnar Seah Jie Kai on 10 October at Block 653 Yishun Avenue 4.

The 19-year-old was arrested by the police, and was charged in court on 12 October with his murder, and has been remanded ever since.

According to Shin Min Daily News, the victim had an argument with his son and walked out of the house, and the accused then allegedly grabbed a knife from the kitchen and chased after his father.

He then allegedly used the knife to slash his father in the neck from behind, before slashing home again across the back.

The victim then escaped through the staircase and called for help from his neighbours, according to Lianhe Zaobao.

The victim eventually collapsed in front of a neighbour’s unit one floor below, and the Straits Times reported that the neighbour heard frantic knocking at her door before calling the police when she saw the victim sprawled on the ground with a metallic object.

The victim reportedly had a bloodstained knife near his body when the police found him, which measured about 10cm long; and he had stopped breathing by the time the paramedics arrived at the scene.

He was found motionless and declared dead at the scene by paramedics.

The Police would like to alert members of the public on the emergence of a new variant of phishing scams involving unpaid tolls. Since 13 October 2022, the Police have received at least 20 reports, with losses amounting to at least $22,000.

Victims of such phishing scams would receive text messages, purportedly from the Land Transport Authority (LTA), notifying them of unpaid bills or fines. A Uniform Resource Locator (URL) link would be embedded in the messages and some of the messages would show that it was sent from ‘ERP’. Upon clicking on the URL, victims would be directed to a fraudulent LTA website, where the victims would be required to provide their credit/debit card details and One-Time Passwords (OTPs). Victims would subsequently discover unauthorised transactions made to their credit or debit cards.

The Police would like to advise members of the public to follow these crime prevention measures:

• Do not click on URL links provided in unsolicited text messages;
  
• Always verify the authenticity of the information with the official sources or website;
  
• Never disclose your personal or Internet banking details and OTP to anyone; and
  
• Report any fraudulent credit/debit card charges to your bank and cancel your card immediately.

If you have any information related to such crimes, please call the Police Hotline at 1800-255-0000, or submit it online at www.police.gov.sg/iwitness. All information will be kept strictly confidential. Please dial ‘999’ if you require urgent Police assistance.

Stop the Crimes’ campaign at www.scamalert.sg/fight by signing up as an advocate to receive up-to-date messages and share them with your family and friends.
