两名青年涉嫌在网上购物平台Carousell,以出售黄金珠宝首饰行骗而被逮捕。 警方于周三(5月20日)的新闻发布会上指出,嫌犯为一对19岁的男女,受骗人数超过40人,涉及金额超过5000元。 警方指出,在本月接获不少人报案,指他们被一名网上卖家欺骗了。卖家声称正在举办开斋节促销活动,在Carousell上以折扣价出售黄金首饰。然而在买家通过银行转账付费后,就再也无法联系上卖家了。 两名嫌犯是于周二落网。警方在进一步调查后,发现两人曾经向警方做出虚假投报,声称女子的个人物品遗失了,其中包括含有银行户口资料的证件。案件尚在调查中。 一旦欺诈罪名成立,他们将有可能面对不超过10年的监禁和罚款;向公务人员提供虚假情报,若罪名成立也将被判入狱不超过两年、或罚款、或两者兼施。 警方提醒民众,在网上购物时需要提高警惕,尽量避免提前付款或直接转账付款给卖家。 当局表示,欺诈分子会诱使买家直接透过交流平台和他们联系,并以更多优惠或更快速的交易服务,吸引买家通过转账服务付款,因此希望民众不要掉入类似陷阱内。 他们补充道,尤其是在进行昂贵物品交易时,消费者应该选择在交货时才付款,或选择和经授权的卖方进行交易,才更有保障。
马来西亚国防部高级政务部长依斯迈沙比里表示,所有入境马国的人士,都必须自行承担隔离费用,并须在来马前签署同意书。 依斯迈沙比于每日媒体简报上表示,由于马国将持续对从国外返马的人实施强制隔离,因此该措施也将自6月1日起生效。 据报道指出,马国公民只需支付一半的隔离费用,至于非马国公民,即使是其配偶与家庭成员,都需自行支付所有的费用。 此外,欲入境马国的游客也必须附上同意承担隔离费用的同意书,该同意书可在马国大使馆获得,在签署同意书后,大使馆也会发出许可信,允许他们返马。 与此同时移民局也会像所有航空公司发出相关指令,规定入境马来西亚游客必须一同签署同意书。 自4月3日起,马国政府已对从国外返马的马国公民实施强制隔离,截至目前,已有3万8千371名从海外返马的马国人被隔离,其中有逾3万人已获准回家。 马国曾于本月14日表明,马国政府将承担公民返马的费用,拒绝为非马国公民的人承担隔离费用。 “我们必须确定他们从何而来,对于来自高风险国家的旅客,卫生部将决定否批他们的申请。”
