KUALA LUMPUR: A 'too good to be true' deal on a used car ended up being just that after scammers managed to dupe almost RM7,000 from a beautician.
Datuk Seri Michael Chong said that it was likely that the photo used by “Lee” belonged to another victim. Jong said that scammers had started sending threats to her daughter after she had blocked them on her phone.
The"car" was being sold at only RM48,000, leading Jong to express her interest to the supposed seller. During the conversations, Jong told 'Lee' that the car was to be registered under her daughter’s workplace. "Each time I was told to pay, 'Lee' would call me multiple times to ask if the money had been sent and she insisted that I immediately call back when the money was deposited.
