Scam

I've been procrastinating my sem break updates..It's weird though..During my study week I have to urge to update every silly things...I never had the free time to do so..except a few posts occasionally.
When it comes to sem break..all i wanna do is to slim down, play game, and sleep. I have a feeling that this is a repeated statement in my blog for every sem break hahaha..

Anyway...I found something interesting to write about which finally gave me a push to update
As the title suggests, yes, someone has been scammed..I don't know whether it's considered as a scam..Well..I'll tell my story and you decide =D

My parents bought over rm15k insurance from a bank..There's no problem with the insurance policy and such but problem occurs at the agent level instead.
You see..there's a promotion that entitles my parents to a free trip to Bangkok and a Burberry T-shirt worth rm600..with the purchase of an insurance over rm15k.
My dad paid with his credit card but the bank called him and say he's being charged for rm14999.99

Hmm..isn't this really obvious there's some fishy business behind?
Why the odd figures when the package clearly states rm15k?
So of course my dad didn't get the entitlements..the trip and the shirt
And weird thing is..the agent who got the commission is under my mom's friend name..but in actual other agent got the business with my dad. For example, my dad buy insurance from agent A but my dad's business is listed under agent B.

So there were discussions between my parents...my mom said that her friend, Agent B got the entitlements..So this is the reason why.
When the amount my dad pay is below rm15k..even just 1 cent..Agent B will get all that belongs to my dad..
But if they didn't do this kinda thing..Agent B will get nothing
Currently my parents are working on this...and most probably will get back those entitlements

I had watched my mom over years being so close to this friend of hers..
My mom had helped her(the friend) to pick up the pieces at her lowest..She could barely get through life but my mom helped her..it's a long story..but I know that they had a friendship.
I can't imagine how my mom feels after knowing this betrayal..

This makes me think twice about friends. I'm not questioning some of my closest friends..but lets face it
Human..The creation of God..who defied Him
Human will always have the tendency to be selfish, to cheat, lie even to their closest friends. We are not free from the Devil until we leave earth for Heaven..well, considering our names are written in the Book of Life.

We all know friends and family do not follow us to the grave.
I guess this incidence remind me that friends are not the center of our lives. If they betray you..they aren't your true friends and you should say "blah, I can find another friend"..
Move on or help that friend within a limit..

I had always lived by the principle for friends "1 chance". After some form of betrayal..I'll never open myself to friendship to that person ever again..Trust cannot be built back with a sorry.
I don't think my mom will ever be friends with that person again..that's what she said

Okay..enough of that..haha
I'm still a narcissistic person =P
I'd cut my hair for internship next Monday..Frankly I'm not excited or anything..I'm just really happy to get new clothes, and shoes! I will get it this Saturday cuz i ordered it online~ Waiting impatiently hehehe~

Hmm..lately my hair fashion is always high up..hahaha...it's such a hassle to have fringe! even short ones..
Bye! =D
