BATAMCLICK.COM: Since the beginning of 2020, Aneka Tambang (Antam) ‘s gold price has become a byword.
The pure precious metal continues to skyrocket from one point to the next.
Until now, Antam’s gold price has continued to climb, as if it had not yet reached a peak, to be grounded immediately.
So, for some people who are good at reading opportunities, let alone having money, the upward trend in Antam’s Gold price is a money-printing machine.
Not a few of them buy up this pure gold bar, then hold it for a moment, and sell it again when the price of gold has skyrocketed.
But not a few of them made the wrong steps, bought in an unofficial place, then finally swallowed a bitter loss.
This is what hundreds of gold “collectors” in Indonesia felt, including 8 people in Batam.
Some even lost up to 1 billion rupiah, because they were cheated by unofficial gold traders they met in cyberspace with Facebook address
“I cheated up to 170 million more,” said Nu, a resident of Batam.
Ahead of Eid
Nu said, just before Eid, he chatted with his neighbors about the rising price of Antam’s gold.
“My neighbor often buys Antam’s gold, he said, bought it via Facebook,” said Nu, Saturday (5/9/2020).
Told the prospect of multiple profits, Nu was interested.
“I asked for his Facebook address, I became a member,” he said.
Nu began to study the authenticity of gold sold by me on Facebook named Ginceu Iluva (Gina Salsabila).
“This account is managed by Drealia Wangsih and her mother, Rohimah,” continued Nu.
From Nu’s observation, the gold that Drealia sells is actually Antam’s gold, because it has a money barcode that can be accessed on Antam’s website.
“I decided to buy, the price is very cheap, only 15 million for 25 grams of gold bullion,” he said.
Even though he was worried, finally the gold he bought came to the address.
“Alhamdulillah it arrived, and I compared it when I bought it directly, I got 4 million profits,” he said.
Tempted by the bigger profit, Nu ordered again.
“The second order also came, I got a price of 17 million for 25 grams. But it’s still far cheaper than the official price, “said Nu.
Nu is getting addicted, as well as other gold lovers.
Duplicate Supervisor
He also began to increase his purchases from 25 grams to 50 grams. The message came on schedule.
Well, last June 2920, he ordered another order, this time the amount reached 268 grams.
“268 grams costs Rp170,150,000. I ordered it on June 28, “explained Nu.
Until Julu, the goods had not arrived, nor did they arrive until August, even today, they have not arrived, even though the money has been transferred.
The commotion on Facebook started to peak, it turned out that Nu was not the victim himself, there were hundreds of people, even dozens from Riau Islands and Batam there were 8 people.
“The average fraud is over 100 million, there are even Batam people who are up to 1 billion,” he said.
Unfortunately, Nu continued, not a few of them pawned their houses, even borrowed money from loan sharks, to buy Antam’s Gold through this Facebook account.
“Poor them, the gold didn’t come, the money was lost, they had to replace people’s money again,” he said.
Nu continued this case has been reported collectively to the Police Headquarters.
But until now, the perpetrator of the fraud has not been arrested, even though Nu continued, the perpetrator’s home address is clear. (Boss)
