Man in S’pore Flipped the Bird at Scammer in Fake SPF Video Call & Everyone Just Laughed

Could buy a few Lamborghinis with that kind of money.

Typically, you would assume a scammer to sound firm and aggressive in their ploy. Making use of our fear, lust, or even greed, they intend to make us succumb to their requests.

For this scammer, however, things didn’t exactly turn out as planned.

Man Received a WhatsApp Video Scam Call

On Tuesday, a man by the name of Muhd Nasrul uploaded a TikTok video of a WhatsApp video scam call he has received. The number had a Pakistan country code of +92.

As if that already not appears sus.

The caller first introduced himself as a Singapore Police Forces (SPF) CID officer. A blue background could be seen with the words “Singapore Police Force”.

He was also draped in a white T-shirt and blazer to look more legitimate.

The lengths they would go to disguise their identity. Nice try, but not good enough.

After hearing the introduction, Nasrul broke into a smile. He must have already known that something’s up to no good.

Thereafter, the scammer then said that the police had a complaint from the bank after the man’s ATM card was declined.

The reason? He did not update his National Registration Identity Card (NRIC).

Hence, Nasrul asked which bank the “officer” received the complaint from.

Since this was a fraud, the scammer obviously could not answer and instead kept on asking the man to show his NRIC.

After Nasrul said that he had four banks, the scammer finally said he was referring to “DBS and POSB”. He thereafter continued to request the man to produce his NRIC.

After the man said he had four banks, the scammer said he was referring to “DBS and POSB”. Once again, the scammer requested the man show his NRIC.

Man Shows Middle Finger Instead

However, instead of revealing his NRIC, the man decided to take things into his own hands. While pretending to retrieve his wallet, he asked for the scammer’s name.

The scammer said he’s called “John Michaels”.

Thereafter, the man then said “Ok John Michaels, here is my IC”, while flashing his middle finger to the scammer.

What an UNO reverse card play action there.

Amused by his own joke, the man started to burst out in laughter.

The plot twist? The scammer himself also started to chuckle.

The man then told the scammer that he knew right from the start that it was a ploy due to the background and proceeded to have a hearty laugh together.
What makes things even funnier was that instead of hanging up the call out of embarrassment, the scammer politely said “Thank you sir, have a nice day.” before putting down the phone.

Cruciality of Scam Calls

While this may be a rather hilarious incident, the importance of being alert to such scams remains essential. When in doubt, do verify the caller.

Also, take note that the Gahmen will NEVER request for personal details such as bank information or transfer of money over the phone or through automated voice machines.
