A 38-year-old man has been arrested for his suspected involvement in a series of e-commerce scams relating to Lululemon products.
He had advertised Lululemon products via Carousell but failed to deliver the items and became uncontactable after receiving payments via PayNow or bank transfer.Preliminary investigations revealed that he is believed to be involved in other similar reports with losses amounting to more than $700. The police advise members of the public to take the following precautions when making online purchases:
Opt for buyer protection by using built-in payment options that release payment to the seller only upon delivery. Whenever possible, avoid making advance payments or direct bank transfers to the seller as this method does not offer any protection.
