I've received this message from a friend and hope it may be useful to you:
This is REAL! My friend had been conned about 1 month ago,
Her fren's WhatsApp was jammed n he can't received or send message. He then received a WhatsApp message telling him to pay US 99 cent as his WhatsApp app has expired. He tot 99cent is nothing if that can solve the problem. He used his DBS debit card to pay n his WhatsApp was reinstated. But he also immediately received DBS messages that he has authorised payment of €700 euro to a merchant account in europe.
Fortunately, he only have $1000 over in this account. So the 1st 700 debit was successful, the 2nd was not as not enough money. Immediately, the 2nd payment amount was automatically reduced to €350, but was also not successful. Again the amount was reduced to €200 and was successful eventually.
He called the bank and the bank said it was a genuine authorisation by him hence bank don't take responsibility.
Friends, pl note don't anyhow make unknown or suspicious or unsure payment. Your bank info will be stolen instantaneously.
I took the time to write this down, hope you will be alert!
