The Royal Malaysia Police has dismantled a cryptocurrency investment fraud call centre, believed to be targeting Japanese citizens, following separate raids on two luxury residential properties in the capital on Aug 19.

“According to our investigation, the call centre had been operating for only a month. The syndicate used luxury bungalows, surrounded by two layers of high fences and situated far from the main road, to conceal their activities from authorities,” he explained at a press conference at Menara KPJ, today.

Following the arrests, police seized 17 computer sets, 55 mobile phones of various brands, a router, a set of keys, and two alarm units.
