Nilai police chief Supt Abdul Malik Hasim said the victim, who is in his early 50s, lodged a report at the district police station Thursday (July 3) upon learning that he had been scammed. "The victim claimed that he had been contacted by an individual on social media on April 21 asking if he was keen to invest in an investment scheme which offered high returns. "The victim, who was taken in by the promise of high returns, then transferred the money via 43 transactions into 19 accounts," he said in a statement. Supt Abdul Malik said the victim only realised that he had been scammed when he was unable to withdraw his so-called profits. He said the case is being probed under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating.
