Oliver Tan is a conman?

Ok, after doing some bits of research over the internet (damn I love google), I found out that this Oliver Tan guy is related to this company called Pon 72. http://pon72.com.my/

He's also related to this company in Singapore called The Numbers Academy http://www.numbersacademy.com/

Apparently he is known as a conman ripping off lots of Singaporean's money by conducting seminars and workshops about the talk in numbers. And after talking to some local Malaysians and Singaporeans, it seems that he has been ripping off from Visiber http://www.visiber.com

Visiber seems to be a operating pretty long. Try googling it and you'll be able to see quite a lot of past records on success stories. Honestly, as an american, I'm pretty impressed to see so many stuffs that they've been doing. Seems that there's also a Visiber group of companies where they "mothered" a handful of other companies too. I also tried googling the founder - patrick tan. Well, at least his appearance seems to look less suspicious than Oliver.

So back to this Oliver Tan.. ok. I've tried to google about him. Aside from the stuffs that mention about him being a scammy old man, all the other articles only talk how good he is, how fantastic his talks are, and that he's the founder of whatever stuffs he's teaching. And...that's it.

I've also compared the products between visiber and pon72. Although I've never really seen or held one before, I guess both designs are almost the same. But of cos, fake LV sellers will tell others that their LV bags are real. So, buyers please check properly!

Silvia did mention to me that the gold and diamond used by Pon72 are of the lowest quality rank, otherwise probably the diamonds are just crystal.

So, the question is...
DO CONSUMERS EVEN BOTHER FINDING OUT THE TRUE QUALITY OF THE PRODUCTS BEING BOUGHT??

Nuff said...most consumers wouldn't care as long as the price is cheap.

Con Artist - Oliver Tan?

Don't you felt like beating the crap outta these horrible people?

I just got back from a vacation in Malaysia for 2 weeks to visit Silvia. It's been ages since I've seen her and she was reluctant to come to New York to look for me!

Anyway, she was telling me about some con artists since we were on the topic of my blog. According to her, her country's probably one of the best place for con artists to reside. She did mention about this man by the name of Oliver Tan who was infringing on a company called Visiber.

I've tried googling for Visiber & found out that it's a company that's doing jewelry & number stuffs. Not that I'm interested in it anyway as my point-of-interest is only focused on the numbers in my bank account. Anyway, Silvia told me that the so-called Dr Oliver Tan claimed to be the founder of whatever Visiber is doing. Try google for Oliver Tan & you'll be able to read some interesting scam issues about him.

Apparently this man went around telling how horrible Visiber is and how expensive their products are. Again, not that I care much though. Perhaps anyone can enlighten me about this dude please?

Anyway, time to sleep. Flying off to Chicago tomorrow for a conference.
