I came to singapore last year (i.e. July 2008) and got cheated twice by some GREEDY HDB Owners and Agents just because of loop holes left by Singapore Government. I'm staying at above address for last six months and paying S$1600 per month. Now rentals are going down but Agent and Owner is saying I cannot leave the house even after giving 1 month notice and I won't get my deposit back. It is an HDB approved unit and HDB officials say they cannot do anything because this is a agreement between tenant and house owner. Police also say the same thing. I did complaint about the first Scam in Court but after some notices they told me to go to next step I need to pay some fee (approx. S$800) which will be recovered by the house owner but not sure. They ask me to find out if that house is on the name of house owner(who ran away with my money).
Anybody tell me from where I'll bring this information? HDB officials say these info are confidential. In Singapore nobody is there to listen or act. How can they say Singapore is Low Crime Country where people are doing fraud with foreigners everyday and still roaming openly without any fear.
