Friends!!! Be careful when using Gojek. Don’t use card, only cash. Apparently Gojek Drivers are able to complete a ride without actually doing so, and in turn charging the Rider.

Happened to my friend 😞

Especially to those who are considering Gojek for CNY visitations!!

This incident happened on 17 Jan at about 10:40AM.

A couple went in to do some “shopping” and a man helped himself to some pots of chrysanthemum flowers costing $18 per pot. He began loading the pots into his car.

A staff saw his actions and began asking him if he have paid for the pots but he gave an excuse stating that he is waiting for his wife to pick more plants before he checks out.

The wife however, got on the car and the driver just left without paying for the plants.

The car plate number is SKC 5772. If you know the car owner, please do inform him to report back and pay for his flowers as the shop owner feels that the police has better things to take care of instead of this petty crime.
