TOKYO, Jan 22 — Japan has halted the restart of the world’s largest nuclear power plant just hours after it began, though the reactor remains “stable,” the operator said.
KUALA TERENGGANU, July 10 — A trader has lost RM500,639.50 after falling prey to an online job scam syndicate that promised high commissions for part-time work.
According to Kuala Terengganu police chief ACP Azli Mohd Noor, the 38-year-old victim was first contacted on May 14 by a Facebook user named Nabila Puteri, who offered him the job through the platform.
“To earn commissions, the victim was instructed to purchase various items via an app downloaded through a link provided by the suspect,” Azli said in a statement today.
He added that the victim initially received small commissions for completing tasks, which encouraged him to continue. Eventually, he made 38 transactions to 22 different bank accounts.
The victim ended up using all his savings from selling fruits, groceries, and cattle, and even resorted to borrowing from friends and using credit cards to make the payments.
A police report was lodged yesterday, and the case is currently being investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating. — Bernama
