SINGAPORE: A woman with a history of duping men into false promises of marriage to cheat them of their money was back to her antics, posting a photo on a matchmaking platform to ensnare more victims.

Using her relative’s photo, Maliha Ramu fooled a 29-year-old Indian national living in Singapore into thinking she would marry him, and over the course of a year, cheated him and his father of S$5,750 (RM18,274).
