Anyway I asked before banks and mobile operators. They will NOT, I repeat, will NOT reveal personal details about their customer for any Tom, d*** and Harry asking for it by just providing bank account and mobile phone number. Even if you have police report, they WONT. Unless you are a police inspector or CID questioning them to investigate on a crime case.
So what if you have a copy of the police report, its useless, unless police themselves investigate into your case. You can try to guess how many cases in 1 day police get regarding online scam or fraud. So do you think your case will be on top priority looking at how short handed our law enforce is now?
Thats is why scammers dare to reveal their name, bank account number and their mobile phone number to buyer. Because, what can you do about it? Opening bank savings account and also applying for new mobile number, they can always use a fake address.
i got someone working inside la (my friends work in celcom and maxis and both can check all the detail by only his/her phone number). take it as asking a friends helping a friends.

(of coz illegally la). bout bank acc number, that i didnt know.
if he use line (not prepaid). then he's dead! u cant lie bout that coz it require ur IC number.
