Kalau u desperately cari keje, and jumpa org post “kerja kosong freelance social media dengan gaji in USD”, please jangan terpengaruh. Sebab dorg ni scammer. Macam mana i tau, sebab i baru je experience it. How? Macam ni

1st of all tlg spreadkan tweet ni. I dont want the fame tp i tau how desperately kita skrg nk cri kje especially utk undergraduate/fresh grads/ dgn yg unemployed skrg. Help me spread this twt so takda yg kena cm i. Yg rugi kita, yg penat pn kita.

So currently i active cri kje PJ area. I utilize every socmed platform yg ada utk cri keje. Including twitter. I search “keje kosong” & as i scrolled, i jumpa 1 tweet ni dgn gambar poster “KERJA FREELANCE SOCIAL MEDIA, GAJI IN USD” and at the bottom ada nama jiha dgn num fon.

So i ws jiha nk tnye kje kosong ni. Dia ckp ok kita jumpa somewhere utk “kenal2” katanya. In my head i fikir “oh, maybe dia nak interview i casually lah kot” so i pegi lah kat dia from kelana jaya to sunway velocity sana. Bapak jauh. Dgn aku salah masuk tol lg.

Dah smpai, jumpa lah. Memula mmg igt dia sesorg. At 1st dia interview i cam biasa, dia muda mmg npk muka bebudak lg & muka innocent. Tanya background i apa semua. Tp 1 benda dah nampak suspicious. Spnjg bbual mata dia kejap2 tgk blkg i (kitorg duduk bertentangan)

& kejap2 dia tgk hp. Mcm ws group. Tgh bbual tetiba dtg sorg ppuan dr blkg. She introduce herself as lin. By that time i know smthg is fishy but i stay sb i nk tau how is this going. Lin cte lah pasal business dorg. These ppl move in a group. Takda office.

Memula lin puji i cakap “cantiknya u muka ada mix arab ke?” Okay jangan percaya, ini taktik & marketing dorg. Percaya lah kau selekeh pn dorg akan puji kau melambung. So lin ni ni pn psycho i cakap tak penat ke keje ikut time office, nak hadap jam, nak hadap perangai boss lg

Sb bad experience dlm past jobs dia decide utk join group freelance ni. Kawan dia yg ajak, “kak aina”. Dia cakap dalam a month dorg can generate to 50k-100k. Pastu lin dgn jiha dedua behave lebih krg. Tgh bbual gempak2 dgn i jap2 tgk fon kat ws group, mata melilau tgk sekeliling

Suddenly dtg lg sorg ppuan, introduce herself as aina. Dr cara i tgk dia ni lah ketua kump. Aina ni annoying. Dia berbual sgt aggresif dgn hand gesture macam tgh bentang kes dlm court. Macam lin td, approach dia lebih lembut. Aina tak, dia jenis paksa punya org

Aina cakap keje dorg relax je. Yg penting kena rajin. Bila i tanya ni business ape? Dorg cakap business online. I tau business online, tp produk ape? Dorg bg jawapan pusing2. Jawapan yg tak clear.

Aina convince i join dorg. Dia cakap “u tanak ke rasa kalau masuk shopping dalam zara tu tak payah tgk price tag”. “Kitorg kje relax je merayap sana sini. Naik turun ghpo tu dlm smggu 2-3 kali beli make up turun kl balik mcm takda pape” riak betul statement dia

Dah abis pusing2 cakap dia tanya nak join tak. I cakap okay i join. Then masa ni lah dia bukak cte kononnya nak join business ni kena ada “knowledge”. Nk ada knowledge kena masuk klas. Nak masuk klas bukan free, kena bayar. Class ada 3 level, basic, intermediate & advance

Dia suruh i sign in masuk basic class. Fee is rm872. I terkejut. I cakap takpa i dont hv enough money. Dia tanya i dgn nada suara annoying & memaksa “u ada berapa dalam bank?” I cakap ada lah sikit tp tak smpai rm872. She asked again, “how much?” I cakap rm600 lebih (i lied)

Dia paksa i pinjam duit kawan. Siap offer diri utk buat ayat. Dipendekkan cte i ws kwn i 2 org, awe & atirah. i dah tau aina ni penipu tp i nak tgk how far is this going. And she’s very rude, dia tgk hp i. Nak tgk betul ke i ws kawan i. I layan kan je.

So 2 kawan i ni reply lambat, dia paksa i send the same text kat kawan lain. I put down my phone i cakap “camnilah, i tanak pinjam duit org” dia muka bengang, “kenapa? I dulu pn pinjam duit kawan i, u tak fikir ke skrg u invest rm872 utk keuntungan 20k akan datang?”

Scene argue pasal nak pinjam duit kawan ni ulang2 around 5-10 mins. Then dia text smthg kt ws group (i think), pastu lin dtg balik duduk situ. Maybe dia nak lin pjuk i since dia lembut sket. Tp at the end, i cakap i nak balik i kejarkan bas i balik jb malam tu pkul 8:30.

Sblum i balik, aina tanya i nak register ke tak, sb dorg akan tanya skali ni je & then dah takda peluang utk i lg. Kalau i nak, they need my details such as nama, ic, bank acc, address & lg satu i lupa. By hook or by crook they want my answer by that time jugak. I said no.

Aina terus tarik muka and then text smthg on her phone, i believe its the ws group. Jiha at least being polite, cakap tq for coming. And then i blah dgn rasa menyirap gila sb ppl in that group byk student muka2 innocent yg claim they join this business sb nk tlg family.

There are many ways for u to help your family, tp bukan dgn cara menipu duit org. Tlg lah fikir org2 cm i ni yg dtg dr jauh keluarkan duit utk minyak kete, utk tol, we hustling for a job.

Lagi kesian utk yg takda transport korg takda otak ke tak fikir org tu bergegas ke sana sini naik public transport dgn crowd yg ramai. Duit yg tak menentu. Korg ni dah kira menganiayai orang. Help me spread this biar ramai aware & pls help yourself jangan senang kena tipu.

Avoid this cheap poster at any cost.
