However, MJ always maintained that he had a “competition problem” rather than a gambling problem.

SINGAPORE – TikTokers advertising themselves as debt consultants are charging debtors thousands of dollars to exploit a government bankruptcy avoidance scheme.

Checks by The Straits Times showed that there are at least a dozen such consultants on the social media platform.

One consultant said that for a fee, he can guide debtors through the Debt Repayment Scheme (DRS) to help them secure a discount on their debt.

He said he had helped a client clear a debt of more than $100,000 with a repayment of only one-third of what he owed, or $35,000.

“That’s $65,000 savings, no shiok meh? (sic),” the man added.

This article is the second of a three-part series looking at issues surrounding debt lawsuits in state courts.

State courts should offer a path to resolution for the millions of Americans sued for debt each year. Too often, however, consumers involved in litigation must deal with inadequate information, confusing processes, and outdated, ineffective policies that do little to help them address their debts. Better policies around these lawsuits can help alleviate some of those issues, and policymakers have both the ability and the authority to implement simple, straight-forward solutions to improve how debt cases play out in court.

As part of its examination of how consumer debt litigation policies fail consumers, The Pew Charitable…
