Hi all
We didnt know we can make report on him or the company. If you check Acra, they seem to be opening a few company and close and open a few more. First time contacting this company and we got cheated badly. We make police report and need to reach out to others if they are also their victim to make it a case.
AS we read on the web. according to Singapore law, this may be a cheating crime. 415 (g)
