KUANTAN: A factory supervisor suffered a loss of RM164,601 in an online love scam after befriending a woman via Facebook two years ago.
Pahang police chief Datuk Seri Ramli Mohamed Yoosuf said the man, aged 56, was then offered a part-time job in a scheme on a platform through a link sent on WhatsApp in December 2022.
“After three months of working part-time, the victim’s online business account was blocked as the customers did not receive the ordered goods,” he said yesterday. He was however told to first pay the processing fee and government tax including customs management fees to redeem the profit, reported Bernama.
He said the victim’s attempts to contact the woman who introduced him to the online business platform failed and he was only told that she was out of the country handling her mother’s medical matters.
