SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): A serial con woman who pretended she was a piano teacher from a wealthy family, a cancer sufferer and a lawyer, among others, ran a whole gamut of ruses over a period of six years, tricking 10 victims of more than S$880,000.

Described by the prosecution as a “seasoned and skilled manipulator”, Joceyln Kwek Sok Koon, 49, had masterminded love scams, investment scams and inheritance scams, and even used her own child’s bank account as part of her criminal schemes.
