Dr Wee warns of scammers using his name on social media


PETALING JAYA: Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong said there have been recent cases of scammers using his name and image to promote so-called "investment schemes" on social media and messaging platforms such as Facebook and WhatsApp.

The Ayer Hitam MP urged the public to be vigilant and not trust any investment offers that use his name or photo.

"Do not click on suspicious links or share personal information to avoid falling victim to scams," Dr Wee, who is also MCA president, said in a Facebook post Friday (May 2).

"If you come across any suspicious messages or posts, please report them to the relevant authorities or contact the police immediately," he added.
