This time around, I choosed Secret Recipe the one which is just opposite Mydin. I usually park at the Mydin parking area as I was summoned once parking by the roadside nearest to the restaurant. That one Wednesday, as Sofea and I were about to cross the road, there were four Chinese men beckoning us and saying something which I somehow knew that they were selling something. I just waved him off. To my surprise, instead of ignoring us, these four men were now walking towards us. Salesman, usually when we wave them off would just stand there and would try to find other potential buyers. But not them. To add to our horror, all four didn't even look like salesmen at all. They looked rather like ah long if not like rapists. So, Sofea and I rushed to our car. They rushed towards us too. I told Sofea to quicken her pace saying that 'orang jahat ikut kita'. As we were about to reach the car, the four men splited. Two went ahead of us. We quickly enter the car and I sentral locked it immediately. I thought it was over. To my horor, one of them knocked on our windscreen. He said that he had coupons and I don't have to buy their stuff immediately. I ignited the car and went away.
Later that night, I couldn't sleep thinking of the scary incident. To make it worse, I couldn't confide to Mr Hubby as he was away outstationed. I whats apped my colleagues and then only I knew that they were from the gores dan menang scheme(scratch and win) which happen to be active around Mydin Melaka area. My friend also said that one of her friend had just recently lost RM5000 paying with her credit card because she was so scared being experience similar to what I had. She was however attacked at Melaka Mall.
It was so terrifying and the face of my mom and mother in law came into my head there and then. I would warn them of these schemes first thing in the morning and I just hope you would do too after reading this. Last time, these criminals were persuassive but beware! They now use force.
Please.... Spread my words around.
