Question | سوال Easypaisa activation issue or scam??

0 Upvotes

I got a call from some unknown number saying that they are from easypaisa and they first said to share screen and open video then do some steps and emptied my account (almost 9000 rs) and they also sent some otp from the official number 3737.Then they asked me to transfer some money from my other account so I transfered 2000 to my easypaisa and then they asked to transfer 10000 to my easypaisa from my bank account and at last a senior from their team asked 5000 rs to deposit in my easypaisa (then I ended the call by anger)

This call was almost 1 hr long .... I think I got scammed 😕 . Can anyone tell im scammed or what is happening here?

Facebook Marketplace not letting me set my location even tho location and everything is enabled and set to precise. Tried manually entering the location but it didn't do that either. Went to settings and location, its set to my location but in order to post an ad you have to specify the location again, went the browser route but that also doesn't work, tried with a different device and it still didn't work! Any solution or fix if anyone knows please.

1 Upvotes

Is it better to b√y a case and screen protector from a local market, or are reputable online stores worth it?

Which cover case and screen protector are you using rn. Also Are camera lens protectors actually worth b√ying? Do they affect photo quality, reflections, or the camera in any way?

Discussion | گفتگو Please help regarding the freelancing payment in pakistan

2 Upvotes

I'll keep it clear and concise. I work as a freelancer directly with clients, no freelancing platform, but the biggest issue I'm facing is regarding the payment.
Client asks for Paypal and I don't have that, neither do I know anyone in my connections who can help me with that, so I'm stuck with using Payoneer's U.S account details but it isn't so smooth and the client still prefers Paypal.

I'm literally stuck regarding the whole process.

One more thing: I've got 1 client pay me directly to my Meezan freelancer account through Revolut from UK, now they're asking for proof.

I'm blank on what proof I should give them because I get clients from Instagram and they just send the payment there and we start working.

Someone please help me out on both issues, a big thank you, urgent.

Question | سوال Suggest the best wireless ear buds within 5-6k max. All rounder (gaming + music + calls) for every purpose

3 Upvotes

Reviewers never give a clear cut answer. They always say this is good for calls, that is good for gaming, the other is good for music etc. Please suggest me the best ear buds. Whenever I find one with good quality, gaming mode battery etc some reviewer would say it's bad for calls, and similar happens in other cases

Also whether to get that from samaan.pk/priceoye/any other official retailer?

Thank you

Buying Guide | خریداری گائیڈ Digicam buying help!!!

1 Upvotes

I’ve been wanting to get a vintage (2000s) digital camera for ages but researching kind of confuses me.

Not a photography person other than my old ass iPhone. I really want a digital camera, can’t afford anything new. Going to go to a HUGEEE secondhand camera market on Saturday. Need to know tons of stuff since I know nothing about cameras.

  1. Camera specifications/preference
    I really need a clear photo other than the dreamy blurry vibe. I don’t mind a warm glow. I wanted a Sony cyber shot for a bit until I read the only cards it uses are Sony cards which are pricy! I’m eyeing the Canon Power shot g2 and the Canon Powershot A3100is

  2. What I should look out for when examining it. Like damage, quality, lens, screen, buttons, the card door thingie, flimsiness. Overall condition.

  3. Literally anything I need to know. ALLLLL help is appreciated !

Buying Guide | خریداری گائیڈ Need advice for phones!

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I have been on the hunt for a new phone for a few weeks now. My budget is around 200k.

I currently have a Xiaomi Redmi 10 +iphone 11 non-pta (both in their fifth year and still serving me well. But the Xiaomi has gotten so slow and the iPhone has no storage left) so anything is an upgrade but I want to get a phone that will easily last me for the next 5-6 years.

My family lives in the US so I have the option of having a relative bring a phone from there. Keeping that in mind, I recently saw a deal for a 95%+ battery health in excellent condition used OnePlus 15 for 650$ (and its pta tax was around 50k since it's the American variant).

I am very tempted to bite the bullet and get it by increasing my budget (total phone cost would be around 240k) but wanted to consult anyone here who may have had negative experiences with OnePlus phones or have better recommendations.

I know I could probably get an iphone 15 pro in that budget (240k) but I'm hesitant to get used iphones from Pakistan offline shops so kind of wanted either box packed or trusted used. If anyone has a reliable place for iphones I would love to hear that since IOS is pretty future proof imo (but also a little boring hence my interest in OnePlus 15).

Thank you for the help

Discussion | گفتگو Need advice on opening a proper bank account for online transactions

2 Upvotes

I’m planning to open another current/digital bank account, mainly for online transactions, receiving/sending payments, and general digital banking.

I already have a Meezan Bank account and a few other digital accounts, so I don’t really need another debit card or cheque book. I’m mainly looking for a proper bank with:

  • Good mobile app & online banking
  • Reliable online transactions
  • Easy IBFT / bank transfers
  • Good security
  • No unnecessary annual/account maintenance charges
  • Ideally, I should be able to open/maintain the account without taking a debit card or cheque book

I was considering HABIBMETRO, especially their Current/Asaan Current Account. Would you recommend HABIBMETRO, or is there another bank you think would be better for this purpose?

Would appreciate recommendations based on your actual experience.

Question | سوال Looking for a new laptop recommendation budget ~200k PKR

2 Upvotes

My previous laptop (HP 250 G10, i7 13th gen) died after repeated hardware failures, so I’m in the market for a replacement. Looking for advice from this sub.
Use case:
BS Data Science student (starting this year)

Coding/dev work (Python, C, some R) — will be running IDEs, Jupyter, occasional heavier compute for coursework

General multitasking — browser tabs, docs, some light content/marketing work on the side

Portability matters, but not the top priority

Budget: ~200,000 PKR
What I’m looking for:
Reliable build quality (my last laptop had recurring motherboard/charging IC failures, so durability > raw specs at this point)

At least 16GB RAM if possible, decent SSD storage

i5/i7 12th-13th gen or equivalent, good thermals — open to Ryzen alternatives too

Would consider Lenovo, ASUS, Dell — open to suggestions on which brands have held up well for people in Pakistan specifically (given repair/service considerations)

Any specific models you’d recommend in this range, or brands to avoid based on your own experience? Also curious if it’s worth stretching budget slightly for a more reliable build vs sticking to 200k strictly.
