This morning I recieved an incoming call to my office direct line. When I pick up the call, it was a voice recorded message that said, "You have a message from the Supreme Court. Press 9 to listen to the message."
I pressed 9 and it was transferred to an operator that answered by saying, "Supreme Court reception, can I help you?"
I told her I received a voice message from Supreme Court telling me to press 9 to listen to that message. Her voice sounds like a china lady and she keep asking for my name and my IC no. The other side of the phone is rather noisy. I felt something is not right. Therefore, I hang up immediately.
True enough, i recieved a circular from my co. Someone actually encounter such gimmick as well. The China lady ask her for her name and I/C number. So she told her and it sounded like as it she is keying in and paused awhile and told me I had a notice from Supreme Court with a charge of working with "Ah long" (Illegal Loan sharks) to open 2 bank accounts for them and the Supreme Court had already sent me Court summon letter to her. Asked her to give them their bank account, ic no so that "they" can do investigations...asked her to transfer some money into some account...All her conversation with her will be recorded as Court evident... blah blah blah
There are 35 people, were cheated of $10,000 each, also received such call claiming to be officer from Supreme Court. These stories that these conman fabricate, are so real and convincing! It's so professionally done that you think you're really going through an investigation answering those questions.

If you have received a call from High Comm, please ignore and hang up the phone immediately. Please do not be the next victim.

Swimming
Was feeling quite tired recently, have not been sleeping well.
A friend shared with me the 6 benefits of swimming:
1) It creates fun
2) Builds up immune system
3) Recovers injury
4) Relives stress & improves mental alertness
5) More agile & less risk of getting sprain
6) Affordable
I decided to go for a swim to relax myself. My dad said that he wanted to join me. I can't really swim, so asked him to guide me on how to swim properly. He may not be the best swimming instructor in the entire pool but he encourages me each time when i managed to swim one metre further.
I'm not too sure if swimming really gives so much benefits but it definately creates a good bonding with my dad. Everyone should start swimming with your love ones :)
