The Police have observed a significant increase in reports of online purchase scam cases. In August 2017 alone, there were almost 250 reports, which is about a 50% increase from the previous month. The majority of these online purchase scam cases were advertised on Carousell and Facebook.
The Police would like to remind members of the public to be wary when making online purchases, especially those involving hotel room reservations, tourist attractions and concert tickets. Between 30 August and 29 September 2017, the Police have received at least 35 reports of online purchase scams cases involving USS Halloween tickets where the culprits failed to deliver the tickets after receiving payments from victims. This figure is higher than the total number of online purchase scams involving USS Halloween ticket in 2016, where about 30 cases were reported. The total amount cheated for the 35 cases in 2017 is more than $21,500, and the amounts ranged from $45 to $7,000 in a single case.
The culprits would ask the victims for advanced payments for the tickets, either as a deposit or in full, to be paid to a local bank account before agreeing to deliver the items. However, after receiving the payment, the culprits would not deliver the items and become uncontactable thereafter.
There were also cases where the culprits provided fake tickets to the victims, who would only discover that they were cheated when they were denied entry subsequently.
Members of the public are advised to adopt the following crime prevention measures:
• Purchase tickets only from authorised sellers, and take note of the terms and conditions of the ticket sale;
• If advanced payments are required, use shopping platforms that provide arrangements to only release your payment to the seller upon your receipt of the item; and
• Arrange for a physical meet-up with the seller to verify the authenticity of the tickets prior to making payment. Bear in mind that the party that you are dealing with online is a stranger.
If you wish to provide any information, please call the Police hotline at 1800-255-0000, or submit it online at www.police.gov.sg/iwitness. If you require urgent Police assistance, please dial ‘999’.
To seek scam-related advice, you may call the anti-scam helpline at 1800-722-6688 or go to www.scamalert.sg. Help spread the word and share this advisory with your family and friends to prevent them from being the next victim of scam.

In response to all the recent media reports made against our company, we are issuing this statement to clarify:
1. Our company did not fake any certification. There has been a circulated “fake certificate” which has been doctored by unknown party from our original copy. We discover such certificate exist sometime in July, and have already made a report against this. These certificate are not doctored by us. The certificate look exactly like our cert but with a bashulanren logo covering our company names and details. All our certificates are actually watermarked with our company name before releasing to any public platforms. We have also made a statement to AVA in regards of this matter yesterday afternoon.
2. Every shipment we imported into Singapore, we submitted the documents and detailed ingredients to whichever declaring agent company that is assigned and then they submit the them to AVA. One of the example email is as sent like the following with a picture of product ingredients attached:
Add on to previous email:
Each box of instant hotpot is USD$2.10 (CHINA YUAN 14/box). Each waybill is 48 boxes hence, USD$100.80.
The ingredient is as follow per box:
A vegetable pack
A vermicelli pack
Base soup made of chili paste & butter
A quail egg pack (3 qty inside)
A beef ham sausage
A sesame oil
A heating pack to warm the ready food
Then a cargo permit is issued to us by AVA and then our cargo will be released from custom and delivery company will proceed delivery to us. This is our usual shipment import process. Our company did not take part in the actual declaring process, we merely submitted the necessary documents to the declaring agent company.
3. Our Facebook post of our permits, is to show our consumers that, our shipment went through proper shipping procedure and not by smuggling.
4. The sales and importation was stopped in August, after AVA personnel did random inspection to our warehouse, and took samples of these said hotpot for testing. We were then being informed that all the hotspots contains both meat and egg content, and this requires China factory to be accessed by AVA in order to be legal import in Singapore. Hence with their instruction, we contacted the main manufacturer in Sept and tried to assist them to arrange the inspection and submitting the documents AVA required for the factory license.
5. The application for china factory was then stopped in late September, due to AVA’s requirement for the china factory to submit some of the documents which the factory thinks that it will be a leaked in their recipe and hence refuse to proceed with the application. And therefore, our company has decided to find another factory – one which is already in the list of “AVA accessed factory” that was listed on their website, and do a new brand and series of hotpot. These said hotpot samples was scheduled to be sent for actual test in AVA approved lab in Singapore by end of this month to get certain test for applying appropriate certification before the mass production.
6. All authorized distributors under our company, are given strict instructions to recall any sealed unconsumed box of hotpot from the public. If you have purchase from us directly, or through any of our distributors previously, please return them to the seller you purchased from & if they are our authorized distributors, they will proceed with the returns and refund. Alternatively, you can contact us for any further enquiries via our Facebook or email us directly: [email protected]
Thank you
DO NOT TRUST M1
I was persuaded by M1 salesperson to purchase my phone with M1 fone care, it was said to be if there any damaged or lost of phone we can claim another new phone. However today I claimed their service, before I make any confirmation, I enquired again and again whether the phone they provided is brand new and their replied is yes, IT WILL BE A NEW PHONE.
To my frustration, what they did is just passing you a 2ND HAND PHONE. Who would want to make a payment of premium every mth to protect your phone and then a lump sum before claiming their service of protection ended up with a 2ND HAND PHONE FROM M1.
They actually have the face to ask me, HOW DO U FIND OUT IT NOT A NEW PHONE?
I am simply disgusted with their ways of doing business
