Trouble for the victim, who only wanted to be identified as Zee, started when she stumbled upon a web page offering fast loan approvals on June 21.
“He asked for my pay and EPF statements, a copy of my identity card before telling me I could even get a RM10,000 loan,” she said at the office of Stulang assemblyman Andrew Chen. The man, she said, also convinced her to transfer RM700 as a deposit for the loan on June 24. “But after that, I received a call from a different man who said my account had been blacklisted and I needed to pay RM1,000 for Credit Counselling and Debt Management Agency’s registration along with RM2,020 for documentation fees,” she said.
The man then asked for another RM3,000 as a fee to open a savings account and RM2,000 as fee to open a current account, which she paid. “But until now the money is still nowhere to be seen,” she said.
