Victim-turned-scam buster shares hard-learnt lesson

PETALING JAYA: Once a victim of an investment scam, financial adviser Afyan Mat Rawi made it his mission not to let the same fate befall others.

The 37-year-old got caught up in a get-rich-quick scheme while studying for his bachelor’s degree in law at the International Islamic Univer­sity Malaysia in 2003, after being recommended by student leaders.
