Loan Scam
I received a voice call mentioning loan service (borrow 1K return 1k with less interest) and continued to talk very long and I asked the caller where he got my number, he mentioned he got it from rick or ricky. I mentioned that I was busy and i did not need the loan and he continued to persuade me to take up the loan for emergency purposes. I mentioned that i do not need, i would call and report to the police over this matter and ended the call.
