Do NOT use "Mrs Koo" - you have been warned!

The police had not done anything not cause they were ineffective, but cause there was no grounds of scam 1, I had already disclosed my personal problems to the authorities and they had also verified my credentials. I had a good music education 2 and never 3 the intension to scam anyon.
There is no grounds for me to tell you my personal problems, but some of you are really too much 4…….
…….
…….
So please, just leave me alone so that I may move on with life 5.
I had never once NOT admitted that it was not my fault in not able to turn up for lessons consistently. But I never intended 6 for this to happen, how would I have realised that in choosing to believe my own husband will lead to my situation today? so please, leave me alone 7.

Right now, I just wish to quickly refund the remaining and move on 8. As for job wise, I am a music major, my accademic credential is only an o levels 9. What kind of jobs can I hold? And I had actually submitted job aplications for school admins to which I didn't even manage to get, all thanks to the reporter who made me seemed 10 so bad a person. I had pleaded 11 with him not to published the article as it is entirely not what he thinks, and that I have a need to protect my loved ones as well. I had actually read through all the comments every now and then but kept quiet, cause I feel no matter what there is a need to shield my husband still.
But some of you are really too much 4, really.
How will you feel if you were me 12 ? When you are already trying so hard to overcome such a difficult point in life 13?
I feel that Singaporeans 14 sometimes really have nothing better to do, they just go around being mean and destroying other people's lives 15. Sorry.

Mrs Koo,
Whatever u telling will be excuses. What we need is the services u got to provide once u taken the fee.


1 : U seems knows laws very well. May be one day u will regret. Don be so yah-yah, in every industry/field also got bad guys. Don be too confident that today you got nothing, doest mean u will be safe forever. (Low crime doesn’t mean no crime… Please don walk alone at night.....haha).
2 : U seems proud of your “good music education”…… Stop telling this. 不要把麻烦建立在别人身上。
3 : please tell us your “never” start from when? Next year? Or next lifes? Bcos u keep on repeating the matters since one or two years back.
4 : are we too much…? You are wrong!!! We/They are not too much. I think, taking money without giving lessons is too much.
5 : What is your meaning of “Move on”? Continue getting lessons fee and delaying lessons.., is this what you mean?
6 : Never intended…? Please don’t use this as an excuse. There is a true facts that you did not change and keep taking money without giving your students lesson.
7 : We cannot let u alone, bcos it involve others. U seems cannot understand. We can let you and your husband to be alone, BUT you cannot keep postpone the lessons. The service engagement is between you and your students, this is not “alone”, you got it?
8 : refund… ? Sorry, I don’t think u can. If u can, you have done it. You are taking new students money to pay only a little to your old students. This is not called “refund”, this is REPEATING THE CYCLE.
9: o level….. May be, I should say, luckily u r only o-level, if u r more caliber, may be all the conservatoires will be your victims…? Who knows…..
9: What kind of jobs can you hold : ….: If you don study music, may be you can be a good lawyer or good gambler. I think you have some talents. But, do it correct way…..
10 : seemed so bad a person…? Pls dont get other people’s money to cover your own financial problems?
11 : pleaded…?
The reporter spoken to me before too (bcos I am victim too), actually he did his job well. If you dare, look at the article back. The article is very neutral. The articles report what the victims’ feeling and it also cover your side of story. The reporter did not add additional story or he did not bias to any side. It is the reader to judge WHO YOU ARE (Mrs Koo)…. Not us. If u blame the reporter, it proves that you knew that what you did is not right, haha, shows that you still have a little shame….. 若要人不知,除非己莫为!!
12 : if we were you…? Mrs Koo, don think from your view point. We are not charity. You see, some of your students have to do part times to pay lessons. Who is too much?
13 : Difficult point in life…? Yes, I agree, it may seems difficult point at your life. But, what do u think, if the students work part times to learn a music lesson and get “postpone” by you, it may be a difficult point of life for him too.
That’s y I told you, don think from your point of view.
14 : BTW, I want to tell u, I am Malaysian. Me not Singaporean. Mrs Koo, please wake up. This is not nationality issue.
THIS IS ETHICAL ISSUE. Let me tell you, even someone from Africa or Singapore, or any nationality, if he has a simple but fundamental ethical mindset, he will not agree on what you said and what u did.
15 : destroying your life…? Who destroy your life, I guess, u knew very well. We are not. Some of the SOFTIES still trying to wake you up.

ikpin : please refrain from posting people's private details. this is not your O$P$ wall to splash on. if you are a victim, i feel sorry for the way you feel. but bad karma will always catch up, if she chooses to scam + continue "lying to us ACTING naive to believe her" , one fine day she'll lose it all. her youth, her trust worthiness, as well as her husband running off to another woman with money cos she don't earn as much as she lies between her teeth and lips.

if you already got so much of her details you can go look her up yourself or work for the chinese tabloid papers, you could probably earn back the money by submitting such info.

may you eat well sleep well
 
Thanks for your words and advice.
Indeed, I don't lost much as others. All the while, i don't speak out if it is necessary. And I don't feel as bad as you think... Thanks for your console. hehe
In the previous thread, I just want to share with you all, what Mrs Koo said are not logic and no sense.

Yes, I agree with you with the karma explanation, which initially I don't want to use this word to explain her situation. Yes, I agree, she cannot run out from her "loops....."...

And, since I already quite aware/understand her situation, I am actually forgotten this matter bcos I truely understand, sometimes, situation just cannot be changed so easily. And I accept the facts that I am unlucky to met her, so for others who met her too. I feel bad for other victims (especially someone have to do parttime to pay lesson fees), bcos they lost much more than me.

I think I have more responsible to dig her out, bcos I am the victim if compare to non-victim. May be my words sound harsh to you, but this is my real and very direct interpretation on her reasons/points in her thread, which she still try to put up a show for us (even though I believe her real problem as what I mentioned earlier).
But, personal problem is personal problem, once a transaction is engaged, then the service have to be provided.
BTW, lastly, thank you very much for your words..... :)
I sleep well and eating too much..... Need to diet..... hehe

At least Ikpin is in a way being objective of the whole saga...and he IS one of the victims who lost his money to Mrs Koo. As for some of you...your mind turned into a putty the moment Mrs Koo mentioned her "husband's problems"...and you don't even know if it's real or not. Why get sucked into the soap opera of someone who has already proven herself to be an unrepentant and incorrigible liar and cheat?

As on-lookers, sometimes talk is cheap unless you're the victim yourself.

Putty?

Dude it doesn't matter what the truth is, if you read some of the postings including mine, we suggested she do a refund.

It's up to her whether she wants to or not or whether she is unrepentant or otherwise.

I empathise with lkpin& everyone who lost their money nonetheless.

There is no way he can be objective if he is one of the victims.

I think what's needed here is a bit of patience and empathy.
All humans can change, despite Ikpin's assertions.

We just need to give her time to resolve this mess. No need to write a looong post with screaming red bold font to condemn her. It doesn't help the situation.
It'll only make you seem unforgiving and vindictive.
 
you can accuse, the person can deny, who knows what's really going on? what does it mean to the rest of us? all we can do is to take all this into consideration when we do our own business.

so thanks for letting us all know about this. hope you guys can sort your shit out.
 
31 pages. excluding the frontpage and centerfold of the newspaper.

is enough for us to learn how

1) to be wary of dealings online and the standard procedure so no one becomes victim everyone's got their ass covered.

2) important it is to render a service or don't render at all cos spoil market trust (same goes for the spa industry lately)

3) possibly someone can lie and lie over and over again to cover up more lies starting with the 1st and being ganged up by victims because this is singapore , small. and you will be caught eventually.

4) naive people can be once you put up an ancient chinese tragedy act, but that's as naive as you get believing your act really works. but then again, this is humanity. Abuse it and you abuse what's left of human in you.

5) victims of Mrs Koo or not, we all have our fairshare of being scammed by other cases. it doesn't mean we are not experienced enough to speak.

6) if she's putting up an act again, may all religions blessing the SAF crest bless her because if there's a place deeper than hell she's going there.

7) if she's not putting up an act, she's already currently going through hell.

8) victims can continue raising awareness and spread warning of such cases to more piano-learning enthusiasts.

9) one bad teacher shall not represent all other reliable music teachers . Do your research on reliable testimonials , it should be easy. bad rumours spread really fast. e.g
http://www.google.com.sg/search?q=mrs+koo+piano "DO NOT USE Mrs Koo" thread is right where her ad is.

10) don't give up learning.
 
I am sorry to say, but i totally cannot forgive Mrs Koo for what she has done. Even if she has all those problems (as stated by her), i still think its unfair for her to involve her personal problems with all her students.

All her students are victims. If Mrs Koo says that her money all goes to her husband, then all her victims are indirectly paying her husband!? Well, it is just an unethical way of getting money.

Sad to say, Mrs Koo is unable to put herself in the shoes of all her victims. I myself know my friend very well & has seen her doing different part-time jobs just to pay for her music expenses. It is hard on her to be working while she is studying.. And because she was scammed of such a huge sum ($1378), she has been depressed lately, unable to sleep till like 4am recently - all because she wanted to think of solutions. Never did she imagine such things would happen to her.

& even after reporting police, sad to say, the money still cannot be recovered.
 
mrs koo here

hi, i did not intend to form theory classes to collect fees just to pass to my husband. The crash theory courses do work. I have a few students who completed including my own nephew. But it was really cause I didn't have enough transport fees even to go teach regularly. I believed I attended quite a few of her classes. But I am starting to refund her already, but it is slow.
And like I mentioned, I am very sorry to involve my students through my personal problems. But it was never the intension to just get money or scam. I hope you understand.
Thank you.
 
refunds

Actually I believed I have refunded almost all, except for remaining few which I have arranged payments already. I have the receipt of each refund. Including the boy who posted that he and his bros for the sum of 13++k, actually it was 650 I believed, I did the trf stright to his mum the next day, which was quite some time ago, 4 months ago i think.
So please check with all the students. I am very sure I have done the refunds, except for the few remaining on hand. So I just wished to be left alone to refund the few more students. I really did not percieve all these problems in the first place, I kept thinking my husband will be paid soon and everything could go back to normal, I really never percieve that I have to deal with all these debts till I do not even have the minimal transport fees. There are students who know about this and are continuing with me still. And even parents who give me 20 to pay my transport fees every session. These parents have really been supportive, as they best know what is really going on. So, for now, please just leave me alone.
Thank you.

She sounds great based on reviews. I've not read a review here saying her lesson, when she actually does conduct, is anything less than good.
 
Good luck! Bye bye to this thread.

Oh ya i came back to edit as i have a few words for Mrs Koo. U wan pple to leave you alone, then i suggest u jolly well save ur time instead of typing away here, find a way to refund those students tat u owe. Since you have already explained so many times. Actions speaks louder than words. You will only create more stir if you were to keep explaining. U will not be left alone for sure, dun u think so? There's a chinese saying which i think is quite true, 解释就是掩饰, the more u try to explain means the more u're trying hide. If your explaination is genuine this time, then juz try ur best to refund to ur students in the fastest manner. Try to get more new students and do ur best u can for them. Do not repeat history again. Let me tell u who can help u. Its TIME. Hopefully few months down the road, there will be a thread speaking nothing but the best about Mrs Koo's teaching. Rest assured I'll be the one of the 1st to comment something.

Take care once again. :)

Yes, I agree with you to some extend. Here, I take back my strong word.
Thanks for enlightenment.

To Mrs Koo,
I give you my benefit of doubt again.
And I apologise to you for my strong words.
Pls show that u keep your promise.
This is my sincere greeting.

Mrs Koo,
If you know, please make others' music learning experince beneficial and enjoyful.
I once was very unsure about your lessons date/time, and I don take serious of your lesson appointment date and time..... Bcos, I know u will sent me a sms telling me you will postpone. So, in directly, it affect my learning..... So, this may affect other of your students learning too.....

I agree.
I guess many of us also get sick of following up this long thread. Me too....

Yes, I still wishing Mrs Koo as before. See thread 170 (180 for english version). Wish her good luck.

To Mrs Koo,
In this public thread, they are different people with different opinion.
You may not follow exactly what others' opinion or suggestions. But there are some basic/fundamental responsible/rules/ethical thing we should follow. I guess you know what I meant.
Lastly, I hope, you learn from your experiences.
Regards,
衷心的祝福
