"I got a call and he said he was from Te*****l point.. I know I have quite a lot of points and I've never used them. I was offered to exchange points with 3 months of free calls, oh well, I think I'm okay right away," he said .

Interested in the offer to exchange points worth Rp800 thousand, Luna also followed all the directions of the fraudsters. Luna felt that she did not have time to think clearly, until finally she sent a sum of Rp. 1.9 million.
