Dept Collector Threatening

Hi all,

I have a bad experience with Al-Rajhi third party dept collector. They even call my bos to ask me to pay the dept. I have only 19k left from 28k on 2007. The company is Zuri Resources Sdn Bhd (www.zuri.com.my). They even black mailed me to fax a copy of my summon to my bos. How they get my bos number? They just call the receptionist. Every day if they can't reach me, they will bug my office and my bos. And there is a time they flooding my sms with same message (89 sms received in one time) after knowing that I will be on AKPK program hence no commission for them.

The question is how to proceed further with this rude dept collector? Make a police report? Sue them? I've searched google and found Seksyen 233 Akta Multimedia as below. I know I can sue them with this act for flooding the sms. How about the threatening and humiliating me to my company staff? Can i use Seksyen 506 Kanun Keseksaan for this?

I still kept all sms from the company.

Akta Multimedia and Kanun Keseksaan is for the gahmen to prosecute people.
Not for you to sue people.

To use these offence codes, you can only make a police report.
Then the gahmen will decide whether there is a criminal case or not.
But in your case, I think the police will not take action, b'cos so far nobody have been prosecuted from sending a lot of sms before.

To solve your problem, you need to tell everybody in your office that you have credit card debt problem and ask them to help
say you are not in. The debt collector try to make you malu at your office.
But everybody already know of your problem, so no more malu.

Hi,

My wife is having the same problem with this debt collector. Right now they are threatening to send letter to her manager and HR dept. I would like to know if by sending the letter does it infringe BAFIA? They dont want to accept any monthly payment and just want full lump sum of RM6k. We dont have that kind of money as I'm unemployed and she is the sole breadwinner. If the letter reaches her HR dept, she most probably will be out of job. Please advise.

Thanks

Firstly, you can tell your creditor and the debt collectors to stop those nonsense immediately. Otherwise you don't pay even One Sen / Cent to them.

You can tell them to sue you, if they like and that will be Years to come.

Let's hope you are not owing to any fabricated Ah Loong (Company).

Yes u can use "kanun keseksaan" to teach the collector...at least put in "polic Lock-up" for 1, 2 or 3 days.. Keep your message as a prove and of course police will rectify your message before u allow to lodge a report.

As long as the message contain make u are not life comfortable (tidak tenteram) or "Menggangu kententeram" action can be taken by police as well as court. So it is under criminal case..

The debtor collector also breach a contract...i dont know what contract they will be enter (between collector and bank)or they dont have any contract at all, just instruction letter where there is ni terms & conditions at all..."Silap hari bulan" the bank also "kena" because allow their agent to EXPOSED the information to third party....is is definitely wrong according to BAFIA subject the bank get consent from you...

For simple and easy action u can take and effective with less cost is :-

1) Make a police report ( makes sure the message or any verbal communication contain life threaten"

2) Copy / provide message and print out detail (times and dates)

3) Prepare complaint letter to :- 1) Bank 2) Bank Negara Malaysia (jabatan pengawasan bank-bank.....dont forget c.c to that collector

4) Follow up with them especially BNM department....

Then u can see what happen...
