S$2.06 Million For "Stolen Handphones"

[Tigershark1976]

Those smart ones who cheated and made their millions.....will silently go and do simple jobs like table-wiper and after-death care.

They can drive their pocky-porsche and Saabs...without attracting too much attention.

 

 

no leh, the latest update was, the table cleaner spends 3k+ for cigar monthly... well.. if we are talking about the same table cleaner

[Vhtfhwlego]

Another smart guy kena caught with his extravangant spendings!

If he had kept low profile.....might still be enjoying his $200,000 stingray, driving a simple Altis, and going on nice European holidays.

 

And most importantly.....he actually no need to work forever.

But he blew it on porches and too flashy spendings.

STUPID.

 

But how many like him were not caught? Those were the really smart low profile ones, we will never know.

Took few millions need not to work forever?

3. William "Bud" Post

won the lottery, but got sued by everyone and finally went broke and died

William "Bud" Post won $16.2 million in the Pennsylvania lottery in 1988 but now lives on his Social Security. "I wish it never happened. It was totally a nightmare," says Post.

 

A former girlfriend successfully sued him for a share of his winnings. It wasn't his only lawsuit. A brother was arrested for hiring a hit man to kill him, hoping to inherit a share of the winnings.

 

Other siblings pestered him until he agreed to invest in a car business and a restaurant in Sarasota, Fla., - two ventures that brought no money back and further strained his relationship with his siblings. Post even spent time in jail for firing a gun over the head of a bill collector. Within a year, he was $1 million in debt.

 

Post admitted he was both careless and foolish, trying to please his family. He eventually declared bankruptcy. Now he lives quietly on $450 a month and food stamps. "I'm tired, I'm over 65 years old, and I just had a serious operation for a heart aneurysm. Lotteries don't mean (anything) to me," said Post. He died on Jan 15 of respiratory failure.

The person who picked up STOMPer Hasan's Samsung Galaxy S3 smartphone still refuses to return the phone despite authorities trying to reach him, and a $300 offer from the owner.

 

In an earlier article, the STOMPer had received an automated text message revealing the phone number of a new SIM card that was inserted into the device, and went to the police with it.

 

Hasan said:

 

"I lost my Samsung S3 (SS3) about a month ago.

 

"I reported to police in Parkway parade but of no use.

 

"I had programmed my SS3 to send me an SMS (to my wife's number) when someone changes the SIM card and I got the SMS from that number.

 

"Not only I got the SMS it also sent me the IMEI number.

 

"I still have the box to prove that it is my phone.

 

"This guy found my phone but he is not returning it.

 

"Police said that they tried to contact him few times but since he didn't reply they are closing the case - nonsense if you asked me!!

 

"I called StarHub to find out that the number is a registered one so the police do have the name and address of the person but they still are not making enough effort to get my phone."

Read this at CNA news : Ex-M1 staff who "stole phones" ordered to pay S$2.06m

 

Singapore - The High Court has granted telco M1 a default judgment against a former employee who allegedly took 3,092 phones and enjoyed the high life with the profits made from selling them.

 

In a closed-door hearing last week, the Court also ordered Matthew Yeo Kay Keng, 35, to pay S$2.06 million in damages to M1.

 

The High Court's decision comes after he had failed to enter his defence by January 14 to contest M1's claims in its civil suit.

 

Yeo, who sold M1 handsets and phone subscriptions to corporate clients, had allegedly been cooking up fake sales orders over three years.

 

He would then collect handsets and sell them off for his personal profit. On November 15, the day he returned from a S$10,000 Japan holiday, he confessed to taking the handsets after M1 discovered the discrepancies.

 

Sworn statements by M1 chief financial officer Lee Kok Chew said Yeo admitted to taking the phones.

 

Yeo had also disclosed his spending spree. He bought a S$230,000 Porsche sports car in August, before upgrading to another S$430,000 model two months later.

 

Yeo also bought a S$50,000 Patek Philippe watch and four Audemars Piguet watches that cost between S$15,000 and S$30,000 each.

 

He has apparently said he would sell his watches, car, a S$200,000 stingray and S$160,000 worth of arowanas to compensate M1.

 

He claimed the items were worth around S$1.6 million. In his statement to M1, Yeo said he took the phones because of "materialism" and his "weakness for cars and watches".

 

He added: "I have used this dishonest and wrongful method to get more handsets lately to get more money and provide better for the family."

Lost and stolen is technically 2 different things..

 

Losing your phone and someone pick it up, the founder is not committing a crime..

 

Phone kena stolen, the thief is committing a crime..

[Jman888]

Not that I'm v critisim of our poodle....it's a straight forward case n yet nothing can b done..

 

 

with the technologies today, all phone can be 'found', mean every time someone 'found' their phone, the police have to track them down?

 

there are probably 100 people lost their phone everyday

[VellfireS]

one sexperience too much!!!

HAHAHA... can see that..
