KUCHING, Sept 12 — Two senior citizens here have lost a total of RM383,000 after falling victim to a phone scam recently.
“The call was then connected to a ‘policeman’ from Ipoh, Perak who identified himself as ‘ASP Moktar’. The ‘policeman’ claimed there was an arrest warrant issued in the victim’s name for committing money laundering,” he said in a statement yesterday. “The victim was also instructed to delete all the WhatsApp conversations and to discard the money transfer receipts,” he added.
“During the conversation, the suspect claimed the victim had taken painkiller medications in a large quantity, which she denied. “The victim transferred her money in nine transactions totalling about RM280,000 to three different bank accounts from mid-August until early September. The public should not provide bank details to unknown individuals or parties and should refrain from registering the suspects’ phone numbers for their online banking.
