Finding a suitable housemate can be a chore.
For one Joanne Chin, however, her troubles were multiplied by a potential landlord who goes by "Chow Yuen Fatt" on Facebook.
All in all, unwanted solicitation from Chow resulted in Chin making a police report, as she felt "disgusted and insulted" by his messages.
Enquiring about the room
Chow had listed a room for rent in Tampines East at S$500, presumably the rate for one month's stay.
Chin also included some photos of Chow and his profile:
The conversation started in the late morning of June 16, 2019, when Chin messaged Chow asking about the listing.
Chow then asked Chin a number of personal questions:
However, Chin subsequently decided that she was no longer interested to rent the room, and expressed so.
That was when Chow offered a "free stay":
When met by a skeptical Chin, Chow replied, "Gv u free oso useless... Hw to sayang u like tat..."
But it gets worse.
Despite a warning from Chin that she will be making a police report, Chow continues to taunt her, hoping that Chin will rise to the bait and sleep with him (?!).
True to her word, Chin made a police report on the same day.
In response to Mothership's queries, the police confirm that a report had been lodged over the incident.
