everyone, please beware of this wine scam that happened to me, spread the word around...
This is what happened, I went to PS( plaza singapura) with my siblings to do our christmas shopping today. I parked on level 4A. On exiting the car, this young girl, about late teens to early 20s, came running to us telling us her sister wants to give free wine to us as she was very happy that she won the tender for shangri-la hotel. We were puzzled and were not really interested, she kept asking us to go to the car, which was only a couple of steps to where we were parked. So we thought no harm, so we walked over. I noticed the car was a C180 mercedes . I even got the number plate down for those of you who want it. This older lady, about late 20s to early 30s came out of the car, opened her boot and showed us the wine she used to win the tender and told us how much it cost and also the wine she was giving us sells for $400 at shang and other high end resturants, which by the way she prounounced wrongly. Please note that the wine that she was giving us was in a cannister, totally covered . The brand was not visible at all. She started going on about how she gave wine to a lady , who gave her a token of $100 per bottle and a man who gave a token of $50 per bottle. After which she told us she wanted to give us 6 bottles and we declined. She decided to give us 3 bottles. We thought ok. She handed us the bottles and asked us how much do we want to give her as a token. I thought $50 for 3 bottles is ok. She told me oh ok $50 each? I told my sister out loud, that I did not have cash with me and right away she told me, the lady did not have money too but her sister went with her to withdraw cash. Right then, we decided enough was enough. We passed her the wines and told her we were not interested and walked away. So everyone, please beware, their car plate is SFxxxxxx
