MACC busts scam syndicate with raid on KL operations hub


KUALA LUMPUR: An investment and cryptocurrency scam syndicate was smashed following a raid by graft-busters at its hub of operations in an office building along Jalan Raja Chulan here.

The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Anti-Money Laundering (AML) task force conducted the raid at about 12.15pm Tuesday (Feb 28) following the success of Ops Tropicana last week, which was led by MACC deputy commissioner Datuk Mohamad Zamri Zainul Abidin.
