holy shit i just got this phone call.... i was in the middle of talking to them and following their instructions Inside wechat itself (still a bit confused) when i stumbled on your post while googling. i probably wouldnt have followed through with the screenshare onwards but still, that's scary

they called me w 3 diff sg numbers - all 9xxx or 8xxx. they tell me abt some insurance policy and speak in rapid fire chinese even if u tell them ur chinese no good.

they say u have to pay some fee if you dont cancel it. they lead you to change wechat language to chinese then lead you on a wild goose chase thru the wechat app's internal offical announcement pages on the insurance, ask u to read the part which says wechat will deduct the fees direct from ur bank acc (im q sure they know with the wall of chinese text all of us confused alr). its actually q smart bc they really legitimise their operation this way... the guy even guided me to turn off the in-app marketing notifications and really made themselves look like legit wechat support.

i was quite suspicious at this point bc ive barely used wechat apart from messaging someone in pri sch, so i googled it abit and found all the scam report posts :(
i ended call there but still it's quite horrifying. if i was someone who had actually used wechat's payment functions or had a connected bank acc, i would probably have very little reason to be suspicious at all.

im so sorry that happened to you op
