Bank officer loses RM241,700 to online vehicle scam
KUALA TERENGGANU: A bank officer lost RM241,700 after falling victim to an online vehicle scam while attempting to purchase a four-wheel drive. Kuala Terengganu district police chief Assistant Commissioner Azli Mohd Noor said the 52-year-old victim lodged a report at the district police station at 9.37am yesterday. He said on July 4, at 12.30pm, the victim came across a used car advertisement on Facebook by a company allegedly based in West Port, Port Klang, Selangor. "The victim was interested in buying a 2017 Toyota Hilux 2.4. He clicked on the link, which redirected him to WhatsApp, supposedly for the next step in the purchase," he said. The man was then contacted by an individual who requested a copy of his identity card and several payments to proceed with the transaction. Between July 9 and 21, the victim made 40 transactions to 18 different bank accounts, amounting to RM241,700. Azli said the scammer later demanded an additional RM31,000, claiming it was for customs fingerprint verification. "This led the victim to suspect he had been duped, and he stopped further payments," he said. The four-wheel drive was never delivered. The case is being investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating.
