A former Car Times employee allegedly collected $67,000 and a traded-in old car from a customer, and has now gone missing. Both the police and the car dealership have launched their own investigations into the matter. In a Facebook post on Sunday,...

In her Facebook post, Ms Ng said she first met Mr Chan at Automobile Megamart on April 25 while looking to buy a new car.

On May 18, Ms Ng traded in her Honda Shuttle for $105,000 as part of the payment for the new car, and paid the remaining $7,000 by again scanning a QR code provided by Mr Chan. Though upset, Ms Ng agreed to exchange the vehicles on May 30 instead, after she returned from her six-day trip. She said the car dealership has lent her a car for temporary use, but it has been on the road for more than 12 years, and cannot be used as a private-hire car. She added that Car Times gave her $2,400 to rent a car from other companies.

It added that it is helping one customer try and get back her money with the help of its insurer, and it is helping two customers get a “temporary resolution” until investigations are over.
