Teacher in Kuantan loses RM277,000 savings to scammers


Pahang Commercial Crime Investigation Department chief Supt Mohd Wazir Mohd Yusof said the 55-year-old woman was initially contacted by an individual, claiming to be from an insurance company, telling her that she had made claims totalling RM68,800 in three withdrawals.

The victim denied making the claims and was connected to another individual posing as a police officer. The bogus officer then said she was involved in money laundering and an arrest warrant had been issued against her.
