A father has claimed that his 16-year-old son spent SGD1,000 (about RM3,324) at a massage parlour in Singapore after receiving a friend request on WeChat
According to Lianhe Zaobao, 40-year-old warehouse manager Cheng (transliteration) said his son received the friend request while he was out playing sports at Block 101, Towner Road.
He claimed his son accepted the friend request without hesitation, which led to a conversation where the contact identified herself as a masseuse offering "happy ending" services at a nearby shop.
Their conversation quickly turned explicit, discussing sexual services and prices.
"My son is in puberty and couldn't resist the temptation. He visited that massage parlour that very day and got hooked," Chen told the Chinese daily.

The teenager allegedly spent his entire SGD500 (about RM1,663) monthly allowance, and even dipped into his Chinese New Year angpow savings
Angered, Chen questioned the masseuse's actions, stating, "Of course he did something wrong, but how can you approach teenagers as a (massage) business?"
The father became suspicious when his son requested extra pocket money, prompting him to question how the money was being spent.
He claimed his son initially denied it, but after he and his wife checked his phone, they were shocked to find indecent chat records with the masseuse.
The local police confirmed to Lianhe Zaobao that a police report has been lodged regarding the incident.
