IPOH: Four tenants are being harassed by a conman who sublet a house to them after they decided to pay the rent to the actual owner of the house.

The four had been unknowingly renting rooms at a double-storey house near here from the 59-year-old conman, who had been subletting the rooms without the real owner's consent.
