The victim came across a Facebook page called "RWESHOPS" that promised lucrative commission-based earnings. After signing up, he was instructed to complete online tasks — and to make payments to "unlock" commissions.

He carried out 24 transactions into 6 different bank accounts.

By the time he realised it was a scam, RM111,245 was gone.

Location: Kuching
