In the 4.0 technology era, everything can be resolved through social media, and even intimidating a debtor like the guy below can be done. However, going overboard like the story that has been buzzing in the online community these past days is truly one of a kind.
Specifically, in these tough economic times, paying off debts seems to be quite difficult. When the debtor disappears, leaving the creditor powerless in recovering the money, the creditor in this story unexpectedly came up with a one-of-a-kind solution. That is to create a fanpage, posting the debtor’s profile picture, name, and information on social media, then running ads to reach as many people as possible. This cumbersome approach, which may not necessarily yield much effect, has left the online community stunned.
Accordingly, the name of the fanpage is “L.D.H Debtor Who Doesn’t Pay”, along with a pinned post featuring the creditor’s bitter caption: “You owe ** million and haven’t paid, I spent ** million on ads so the whole country, your relatives, and everyone in your neighborhood knows, okay?”
This shows that debt collection in the 4.0 technology era requires investment. In fact, the 50 million spent by that guy hasn’t completely gone to waste, as the fanpage, despite having no content besides that debt collection post, has received over 2,000 likes, hundreds of comments, and shares all over social media. And although it’s unclear if this cumbersome method will help him recover his debt, spending an amount equivalent to the debt owed has certainly left the online community shaking their heads in disbelief.
