Woman faces threats after falling prey to unlicensed loan trap

KUALA LUMPUR: A woman has been facing threats from unlicensed moneylenders advertised on social media after falling into debt exceeding RM100,000.

Brickfields OCPD Asst Comm Hoo Chang Hook said the 34-year-old woman, an officer at a private company, initially took a RM2,000 loan from an agent but received only RM1,400 before repaying the full RM2,000 last July.
