Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
A woman named Yunita Sari became a victim of fraud by unscrupulous salespeople Honda. He was tricked into transferring money for the purchase of a new car to a personal account, not a dealer company.
Yunita explained that the incident began on February 5 when she intended to buy a Honda Brio. He was attracted because of a discount offer from a salesperson known as Ruhan Khan.
Yunita said Ruhan’s number was obtained from the OLX buying and selling site application where the salesperson advertised Honda products.
From there, Yunita decided to meet Ruhan at the official Honda MT Haryono dealer, South Jakarta one day later.
“Yes, I went to the dealer and met him, just like sales in general. He uses an ID card, brings SPK files and others. We also chat and negotiate again about discounts there,” Yunita said when contacted, Monday (7/3). ).
Yunita said inside the dealership it happened to be quiet. He was the only customer himself and the other three were Honda employees, including Ruhan.
“Among the three people there is also a man named Dedi, he was introduced as a supervisor by Ruhan,” he said.
He told the story of the negotiations with Ruhan at that time regarding the addition of the discount value from Rp. 8 million to Rp. 10 million. Besides that, it’s also a matter of upgrade accessories for the car he bought for Rp. 7 million.
In the negotiation process, according to Yunita, Ruhan often went back and forth to Dedi at his desk like someone asking his superiors for permission, but in a whisper.
“It’s finally me deal with that value,” he said.

After the price negotiations took place, Ruhan asked Yunia to pay a token of Rp 10 million. However, Ruhan said the money could be sent to an account not in the name of the company, but to Dedi’s.
Yunita explained that Ruhan asked for it because the dealer’s cashier was closed on Sundays.
“Yes, he said the cashier was closed and he could transfer to Dedi’s account. Later the process will be completed on Monday. Yes, I believe because this is at the dealer and the Honda employees directly. Then I transferred and Ruhan then asked for my ID and NPWP to be recorded,” he said. .
The next day, Yunita admitted that she was given a receipt of Rp. 10 million by Ruhan via whatsapp photo. Yunita was also asked to send several documents to meet other administrative requirements.
But in between conversations, Ruhan asked Yunita to transfer Rp. 30 million to the account in the name of Dede Yusup, whom he introduced as Spare Part Manager. Yunita said it would be part of the lobby spare parts to immediately bring the accessories.
Yunita said the reason why Ruhan wasn’t transferred to Honda’s account was because it could slow down the delivery of the unit.
“I believed and transferred Rp. 30 million to Dede Yusup’s account. After I transferred, Ruhan was still updating the info and reminded me to pay off to PT Nusantara Mobil Internasional the next day [Selasa 8 Feb],” he said.
“Then Ruhan also sent me a photo of a receipt of Rp. 30 million proof transfer I. I have become more and more convinced that this is how it is,” he said.
The next day Yunita then paid off the car amounting to Rp. 141 million. This figure is deducted from the money that has been spent previously.
“But when I arrived at BCA, Ruhan said that the Rp7 million should be transferred to Dede Yusup’s account because spare parts it has been installed and bailed out by the spare parts so that it will be sent on Thursday. So I transferred IDR 7 million to Dede Yusup and IDR 134 million to an account in the name of Nusantara Mobil Internasional,” he said.
But when he got home, he received an SMS from BCA that the funds were rejected and returned to the account amounting to Rp. 134 million due to a misspelling of the letter ‘t’ on the recipient, which was supposed to be Nusantara Mobil International.
Yunita then says that to Ruhan. However, one solution that Ruhan gave was to send the money back to Dede Yusup’s account, which was Rp. 50 million.
But this was ignored and chose to send the remaining payment to the Honda dealer’s account.
