Beware – scammer SAs allegedly using similar company names to phish for car purchase deposits

A case involving a salesperson of a Japanese car brand has gone viral over the weekend. The salesperson allegedly took deposits from customers that were supposed to go towards the purchase of a car but when it was time to take delivery, it was discovered that the deposits paid by the customers earlier were not properly paid to the dealership for the car purchase.

However, it seems that scammers have figured out a workaround, perhaps inspired by the 1MDB case where payments to bank accounts that were similarly named but not exactly the same were involved. According towhich included a police report, cash payments of up to RM90,000 were made to a company bank account, but apparently the bank account did not belong to the dealership.
