She used nearly RM90k of her mum’s money in bogus gold investment scheme

KUANTAN (Bernama): Excited about joining a gold investment scheme, a student transferred RM86,270 from her mother’s bank account, not realising that she had been scammed by someone she only met on social media.

Pahang Commercial Crime Investigation Department head Supt Mohd Wazir Mohd Yusof said the 23-year-old victim said she met the male suspect on the Omi Chat application in mid-July last year before he invited her to join the investment scheme early this month.
