Hi Jeff, wondering who is the content provider that actually Spammed 217? MacroKiosk again?

Anyway just for your benefit and the community at large, AKN MTECH shortcode has been suspended by all mobile operators for guidelines violation today. I was told by some of my friends working in the mobile operators. I even tested using my mobile to their shortcode 32322 and there is no reply. Therefore I believe it is true that they are being suspended.

Looks like your blog is really influential. The moment I highlight my plight of being overcharged by 32322, the shortcode has been suspended.

Thanks a lot Jeff!

JEFF OOI says: Interesting. I don't who is right and who is wrong but that is not my main concern. This gang-fight among the CPs may ultimately make it easier for MCMC to have a social-responsibility reason to clamp down the entire 3xxxx subscription service -- like the way they did to 600 IVR premium calls formerly. Then we consumers will be better protected from fraud and good CPs or bad CPs will be all dead. Thanks for that, my friend!

UPDATE I: Thank you baba -- whoever you are -- for sending me an SMS at 12:28am and delivered to my handset at 12:31am this morning via +60196000068. Your SMS is revealing to this blog so let me publish it verbatim:

hi jeff, you contacted my friend (Note: +60123990992) this afternoon. This is baba. He is kind of pissed of that I uploaded his complain to ur blog. Looks like u r very close to akn then. Anyway this is my direct number.

UPDATE II: Thank you again -- whoever you are -- for sending me an SMS at 12:37am and delivered to my handset at 12:40am this morning via +60196000068. Your SMS is revealing to this blog entry so let me publish it verbatim:

so the one that spammed 270 times in 17 days is definitely macrokiosk then for sure..

Thank you Henry.

Dear Jeff

Reading the response you get, it seems that a lot of people are now discovering that
they have been scammed by Micro Kiosk..while this reader , baba is so hard working
and even go to interview the boss...and then repeat what Micro Kiosk had said to him
and trying his/her best to whitewash Micro Kiosk being an innocent party..

Guilty or not, Micro Kiosk benefited from these scam.

Running a business and not knowing where their monies comes from. And when so many
reader of yours has called them to complain. And they do not know they are earning these
illgotten gain.. What type of businessman who won E & Y Entreprenuer of the year are so
naive and innocent .

Then he proceed to test some services and claim this and that.
I follow his instruction to 32322..and it is working on Celcom, Digi & Maxis..

So, in conclusion, this reader baba is HIGHLY SUSPECTED to be some one who are
so closely related to Micro Kiosk and now trying to shift the blame onto others and
attempt to drag everybody to be as dirty as them.

What is there to say !! ..baba..you are a DAMN BIG LIAR.

What is there to wait for? Go make a police report la!....Ah, I forgot. All this posturing in the blogs are being made and the mainstream media are yet to pick on it only because all of this is beyond the understanding of our Polis Di-Raja Malaysia....Forget about the AG la. Or are we all also so far not making the necessary police report because this is what we all also belive of the police and the AG? That this theft that is taking place is just beyond them to understand and therefore they will not take action. Are we assuming the same of our judges too and maybe that is why nobody has so far bothered to sue the crooks?

I started reading your blog in early 2003. You have wider influence now ...hope you will remain true to us. There are many people out here who need the kind of help we might get from a 'Micheal Chong' department. I hope the authority will see the benefit of such help centre. It can take away a lot of frustration from Malaysians; it is a proactive governance which will only strengthen Malaysia. Try not to change too much.

Jeff, sorry for the repeat postings. And sorry to everyone else too. My pcs giving me a problem and unfortunately I am not a geek who knows how to fix it.
