Last week, the founder of Hom Malaysia, Felix Ferdinand “admitted” to being the owner of the illegally parked McLaren car at a condominium in Mont Kiara. Things then took an interesting twist after a netizen who goes by Akram Yusof accused him of breaking his promises to renovate customers’ houses. The CEO showed no signs of remorse and shared his side of the story.

A few people have since come forward with their own experiences in dealing with Felix but over the weekend, Akram personally reached out to us to share more details on what’s been going on between him and Felix. According to the information gathered by the young man, a lot has happened over the past few years and many victims have shared their stories in addition to their reports against the CEO. Here’s what we know:

Akram has been keeping the receipts over the years including testimonies from other victims. But before we delve into that, it’s best to start off with his own personal experience with Felix Ferdinand. The victim claimed to have met with the Hom Malaysia CEO back in 2020 after finding out about the company through a property agent. “I was looking to renovate and rent out my property and I found that [Hom] was featured on various newspaper outlets. They also had pictures where they met the Minister of Entrepreneurship at the time. This gave them credibility and I signed up for their services.”

Unfortunately, things did not go as he expected. After paying a deposit of 70% worth of RM22,736, he was left disappointed that there was still no work done on his house. When he contacted the sales agent, he learned that the agent was leaving the company due to overdue salary. As it turns out, Akram was not the only one to experience this. “I was then invited into a WA chat group called HOM Scam Alert with other owners who have similar issues. This prompted me to ask for a refund and for the company to return my house keys.”

He then agreed to join a conference call with Felix, whose actual name is Fellixson Sawing Nixon Anak Jam, and other executives of Hom Malaysia. They agreed to provide a full refund with a 10% increment to Akram. Unfortunately, things went downhill from there as the refund process allegedly kept getting delayed, as seen in the screenshots above. This then prompted the victim to go public with the issue. By March 2022, he and several other victims decided to take legal action against the CEO and the case, as mentioned in the previous article, is still ongoing.

A reminder that in the previous article, Felix claimed to have never directly dealt with Akram, however, the official documents, email and Whatsapp screenshots provided by the latter contradicted his previous statement as it showed that he personally contacted the customer regarding the unfulfilled projects and delayed payment. According to Akram, the McLaren car that Felix drove does not belong to him but is registered to someone named Gan Kai Hoon.

There’s apparently an online petition called “Expose and bring Felix to justice” with 32 signatures. Moreover, the victim also revealed screenshots of Whatsapp text messages and voice note conversations between Felix and his dissatisfied customers. He also shared multiple police reports, summons and complaint letters from various people who have fallen victim to the business founder’s alleged scam. Here are a few examples:


According to the screenshot above, it appears that Vulcan Post had previously covered a story where landlords accused the Hom Malaysia founder of being a fraud but after a quick check, the original article has been taken down. Akram alleged that Felix packages himself as a rich CEO to lure his victims to make investments with him but things won’t usually end well.

Apparently, Felix also claims to own a few Omakase chains at Pavilion Bukit Bintang and Starhill. Is this another tactic to lure more people to invest in him?
