Total SGC$: 729.55 |  Conman @ AXS or SAM - please check your payment bills on the spot
Beware of conman when using AXS or SAM machine, coz my friend fell into the trap..
>Dear frens,
>
>juz want to share an encounter i had recently, especially for those who pay your monthly bills through S.A.M or AXS machine. And do help to pass it on to your frens around you before they fall into the trap.
>
>I was queuing behind a guy who is using the S.A.M machine an he is taking his own sweet time. But i did take a look at why is he taking such a long time, coz he keep pressing the "previous menu" button.
>Then he decided to let me use first. So when i used it, the screen already show the main menu page. I proceed with my transaction and pay the bill using my ATM card. Luckily i have this habit of taking a look at my reciept, found that how come the total amount is so much. I go through the list of bills i pay and found that i have paid one that is not mine. So i turn around and look, the guy who was using before me, use the machine again, keying in the same amount. I approach him and told him, i have paid his bill. So i say wait while i call the hotline number on the machine for help. While i was on the phone, the guy juz quietly walk away, went to the AXS
>machine not far away.
>
>I have no prove if he did it on purpose, but i gut feeling tells me other wise... after he's done on the AXS machine, there were 2 guys using it, i went forward remind them to check their receipt.
Imagine, if this is true, he might be using the trick every month, people are paying his bills for him. By right, he should have cancel the transaction or exit but instead he keep on pressing the "previous menu" button until it reach the main menu page...
>
>Moral of the story, check the summary shown on the screen before you proceed with the payment, always check your receipt, if it happens, call the hotline on the machine. They will do a refund for you by cheque. Please pass this on... You dun want your frens to fall into this trap.

I dont think this trick can work .. cos all the time before we proceed with our payment , the machine will show the summary of the payment we enter, before we insert our card to continue the payment.
