Default Beware Of This House Agent

Beware of this House agent 90054927

With the rentals increasing and no respite from rental-increments in
sight for better and reasonably prices houses, there are bound to be
cheatings and frauds and I encountered with such an accident and would
like to share it with you. I would request you to spread this to as many
people as you can so that people like us are not cheated/trapped into
conspiracies created by owners/agents who are trying to take advantage
of the screwed up demand-supply situation of Rental houses in Singapore.
Please spend five minutes of your busy schedule, doing so may help you
or your friend avoiding some hassles/falling into traps of dishonest
owners/agents.
I rented out a full unit at Block 142, unit #08-10 , Rivervale Crescent
- 540142 in Sengkang on 7th April 2007 and finally moved into the house
on 10th April with my family. I got this unit from a person called Nick
,I came to know that his real indian name was Naresh, not fully sure
though, from Roof Property Pte Ltd, (This agent is a big-fraud, please
beware of him. He is a tall guy, with brownish-yellow eyes and curly
heir, his contact number is 90054927 ) . He posed a lady named Bibi
Rehana Omar Khan (93971406,NRIC S7529328C) as the owner of this
aforementioned unit.
I moved into this unit on 9th and started living in with my family from
10th April 2007. On the very first night we moved into this house,
someone named Farid, a person of about 35-40 yr age, broke-into this
apartment at 2:00 AM and started watching the TV at high volume. This
guy was heavily drunk that was evident from his red-eyes. Disturbed by
the loud noise, I opened the door of my bedroom and found this guy
sitting on the sofa, smoking cigarette and watching TV. I was scared and
infurious like hell. Upon enquiry, he said that the house belonged to
him and that he has been released from the prison on that day and have
no place to live. He claimed that the house belonged to him and I must
vacate the house immediately. He tried to intimidate me by repeatedly
stating that he has come from Prison and is not afraid of police, if I
choose to call police.
This incidence disturbed the peace of my house and my wife also got up.
I tried to reason with him but to no avail. I tried calling this lady
Rehana but she did not pick up my call. Calling Nick did not help
either. He was least bothered by what we were going through. After
making all the attempts to amicably solve the issue at hand with the
owner and agent , I gave up and was left with no choice but to argue
diplomatically with this criminal. After disturbing, threatening and
scaring us for about 1.5 hr, he left with another warning that he would
return back at 7:00 in the morning and would break the door dare I put
any pad-lock etc.
We took a day off and tried taking help from these two people named
Rehana and Nick only to find that they were either not picking our calls
or were just canceling our calls. We got frustrated and decided to take
police action against these people and went to Sengkang NPC. It was
then, when police called Rehana, I started getting all kind of calls
from Rehana and Nick that they would send so many people to live in the
house and that I would see what all trouble they can create for us.
Police also did not help saying that Owner can send anybody to house to
stay since the house was unapproved and informed that this Criminal was
no-one but the Brother-in-law of this lady Rehana. And this fact made it
legal for Rehana to put an ex-convict in the house.
To cut this long story short, I was forced to leave the house in one day
by all kind of threats that they would trouble me, should I decide to
stay. Apparently, due to my family's security's concerns, I had to leave
the house immediately.
Later when I told this story to my friends, I discovered that , there
were at least 4 more people cheated on 24 th march( exactly same story),
10th April (me), 7th May (this time Farid acted as owner and Jack Sing
as Agent), and later 10th May 2007 (Farid and Jack/Jat Sigh) for amounts
$2700.00,$2525. 00,$3100. 00, $2200.00 respectively. This proved that this
was a very well orchestrated drama by Rehana, the land-lady, Farid, Nick
and another agent named Jat/jack-singh (name unsure).
After knowing all this, I thought that I must share this story with you
so that you can take precaution when you visit any new apartment for
rent. Also, I lost S$2525.00, in this whole episode and was thrown out
of gear completely for at least 2 weeks. Please beware of this agent
Nick/Jat(or Jack) sing and this owner Rehana/ Farid.

I had written this whole story just after my incidence and tried to send
it to the yahoogroup ezlink, where about 12000 people are member, but it
was blocked on this yahoo group and could not be published, so I am
sending to whatever mail-ids I could find. Please help spread this
story. Had this story been published on yahoogroup a gentleman on 7 th
May may have avoided these unfortunate event in which he lost SGD
3100.00.
For your reference, there are atleast 3 Police Reports in Sengkang NPC
against this Agent/Land Lord duo and 3 HDB complaints, which are known
to me. There could be several others as well.
