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.
