PLEASE HELP ME SHARE THIS POST AROUND SO YOU DO NOT BECOME THE NEXT VICTIM MUCH APPRECIATED! 😊
The intention for this post is to warn others about this Con Man.
Name: (KEVIN) CHOW
Nirc: Sxxxxxxxx.
Address: 12x Lorong x Toa Payoh #1x-xxx.
I am certainly not the first and will definitely not be the last if we do not spread the word and put a stop to his ways.
He has cheated multiple victims of large sums with the promise of riches by painting elaborate/convincing business propositions, flaunting cash, properties, etc.
He is very persuasive and very convincing so please be vigilant. One of the businesses he claims to own BP Formula Care.
He also runs money laundering/exchanging syndicate with his Vietnamese associates.
1. He uses the money from the said victims to pay off existing debts.
2. Pratonizes escorts.
3. Gambles at the casinos.
4. Runs a Ponzi Scheme.
5. Scams people by selling them the idea of his money changing business which he “owns”.
6. Threatens you and your family with violence when asked to repay.
7. Uncontactable when reached.
8. Uses “his property” City Gate, 371 beach road #xx-xx as bait, assuring people that he will sell off his property if in the event he is unable to pay.
9. He is a declared BANKRUPTCY.
Here are some incidents.
1. The Money Changer Scam Part 1.
On 10/10/19 he proposed to meet up with a business proposal at Stanley Street to talk about his Money changing investment, the purpose of the funds needed is to facilitate money exchange in which he had full control over it, also to show funds as work of proof to other investors with the promise of returns with his partners Ben Kee +658647xxxx, Deen +659761xxxx & Salam +659738xxxx from Aliffarn Exchange at Raffles Arcade.
Later to find out that the numbers given were fake.
The funds were said to be returned after a few days with a contractual agreement in order.
Benefit of the doubt was given and foolishly the funds were handed to him without receiving the contract first.
When asked for the contract he delayed and till this day hasn’t return the money.
A total sum in question is SGD$105000.
2. The “Salesman”.
In this incident he took a total sum of nearly $50000 from the victim, which infuriated the victim’s boyfriend. The wrong man was locked up imo. You be the judge.
6 weeks’ jail for man who locked up salesman’s father, helper over unpaid loan https://www.todayonline.com/…/six-weeks-jail-man-who-locked…
3. Football friend turn Foe.
He convinced his football buddy into handing over $100000 with the promise of financial gains. He would join the Friday kickabout under the Thompson flyer previously known as “Offside” and gain the victim’s trust. One of his modes of operation is to make friends and join football games to earn the target’s trust so he can steal money.
4. Half a Million.
Probably his biggest hull till date he managed to get a sum of $500000 from his victim, which cause the victim into depression and wanting to take his own life.
5. The Money Changing Scam Part 2.
In June 2019, Kevin approached Jefferson Shin through a trusted friend of his, saying that he was running a money changing business and required some funds with the promise of daily returns. Jefferson gave Kevin the benefit of the doubt and handed over close to $100000.
Initially Kevin would small amounts daily but soon the excuses came.
6. “The Friendly Loan”
He convinced his target to part with $362310 as a “friendly loan” with the promise of financial gains back in 2017.
He would propose to pledge his “property” to the victim and give the victim a false sense of security and would then “sell” his property if he was unable to pay. Till today nothing has been recovered.
Attached are photos, conversations and recordings of the con man and the parties involved.
