Dungun Doctor Loses RM558,000 in Forex and Ethereum Scam
A 32-year-old doctor in Dungun lost RM558,000 to an online forex and Ethereum investment scam. The victim initially saw an advertisement for trading and investment lessons on Instagram before being contacted by an individual known as 'Wan' via WhatsApp.
The doctor made 77 transactions to six accounts between January 12 and August 11, losing a total of RM558,000. She was later told she had committed an offence and needed to pay compensation to avoid legal action, but realized she had been cheated after receiving no returns.
