Ruse?

Have a call last week from one of the telephone marketeer, was at the gym then so ask the person to call me back again politely.

Today call me again. Normally i don't even bother to entertain this kind of calls. No matter who the FU$# the company is!

Since i have ask the lady to call me back, at least i have to give my 2 cents worth of attention.

The company, couldn't remember what, are calling on behalf of Standard Chartered Bank to sell insurance on theft for credit card/important documents in Singapore or oversea.

After listening to 10 mins, i just want to slam down the phone, i told the lady i am not interested to buy any insurance for my credit card! She mention the company will cover all credit cards(even it is not Standard Chartered!) for a mere S$47 per year! Hmmm....$47 for a piece of mind....for a year should be good deal.

I don't want to make a judgement immediate and the following are the correspondence that follow:

TG: Can you email me the brochures/document about this product?
MK: I can't email to you, can i fax over to you, it is 3 pages.
TG: Har like that har. Fax har....
MK: It is very fast for 3 pages, can you provide fax number
TG: Can you provide your company website? I will like to do a bit more about your company.
MK: I can't give it to you, as the company have understanding with Standard Chartered to sell this product, therefore cannot put the product/service inside company website.

WTF is this? Small fry? Cheat? Cannot provide website, can't even email to me!

I told the lady, i am not interested in the product straight away!

Waste my time! You cheater!
