SINGAPORE - A former Car Times employee allegedly collected from a customer $67,000 and an old car traded in for a new Toyota but now has gone missing.In a Facebook post on Sunday, private-hire driver Ng Poh Leng said after she traded in her old Honda Shuttle, worth about $105,000, she went on holiday for six days. She expected to get her new ride when she came back on May 29.
Two days later, Mr Chan contacted Ms Ng to ask if she was keen on looking at a Toyota Noah, and she said yes. She then sent $10,000 to Mr Chan using a QR code he provided. Ms Ng wrote: “He also assisted me to do the transfer of ownership of my trade-in vehicle to Car Times, for which I was very grateful, as I am not IT savvy, but ended up regretting later on.”
As Mr Chan did not respond to any of her calls while she was on her trip, she went to the Car Times office. There, the sales manager said the car was ready for collection, but no payments had been received. Her Honda Shuttle’s ownership was also not transferred to Car Times. In a statement posted on Facebook on Sunday, the Car Times Group said Mr Chan is believed to have engaged in fraudulent activities that it did not authorise or condone.
