Couple lose RM30,000 in an unlucky bet


SEREMBAN: A couple lost RM30,000 to a stranger who promised to give them half of the RM500,000 she had apparently won in a four-digit draw if they could help her pay the processing fee to collect the winnings.

State Commercial Crime Investigation Department head Supt Aibee Ab Ghani said the 69-year-old man and his 64-year-old wife were at a carpark in Bahau when a woman approached them and showed them a four-digit winning ticket.“
