"After three months of working part-time, the victim's online business account was blocked as the customers did not receive the ordered goods," he said in a statement on Saturday . According to him, the victim had conducted 14 transactions via three different accounts totalling RM164,601 using his savings including from his Employees Provident Fund .

The victim then realised that he had been cheated and lodged a report with the Kuantan police headquarters on Friday .
