Separately, Bernama reported that the Penang police have arrested two men believed to be involved in Macau scams in two cases, south-west district police chief Supt Kamarul Rizal Jenal said.
In the first case, a man was arrested in Taman Ria Jaya in Sungai Petani, Kedah, two days ago over his suspected involvement in a Macau scam that caused a woman to lose RM28,000 after she was deceived into believing she had RM36,000 in tax arrears.
He said the police were still tracking the syndicate and had remanded the unemployed man to facilitate investigations.
Supt Kamarul Rizal said that in the second case, a man was arrested three days ago on suspicion of being the owner of a mule account used by a Macau scam syndicate.
His arrest came following a police report lodged by a housewife who lost RM9,200 in a Macau scam last September, also supposedly to avoid legal action over tax arrears amounting to RM17,670.06.
