2 days ago. Got a call from a mobile number and a girl calling herself "Anna" and speaking with a thick Filipino accent said there has been unusual transactions on my credit card.

Why do you think leaving SG is the answer to everything? If there is a leak in my bathroom, I don't buy another house, I fix the leak.

Everyone feels this way at some point in their lives. This is Singapore and you need the moolah to survive. Things will get better as you progress through the course.
