Nearly RM500,000 lost: Police probe Kim Seri’s ex-husband in travel fraud case

JOHOR BARU, April 28 — The Johor police have arrested the ex-husband of social media influencer ‘Kim Seri’ for allegedly defrauding customers with tour packages to Korea.

Johor police chief Datuk M Kumar said the man, 41, who is the owner of the company account Cikgu Kimchi Trading, had used the company to receive payments from his victims.




“Eight investigation papers have been opened against the account including those in South Johor Bahru, Kota Tinggi, Seri Alam, Iskandar Puteri, Muar and Kluang, and the papers will be submitted to the deputy public prosecutor.

“The case is being investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code for fraud,” he said in a statement, adding that the man, who was arrested on April 21, is currently in police custody for further investigation.



Allegations by several of the victims, who have lost a total of nearly RM500,000, had gone viral on social media recently.

scamming seems to be the top industry nowadays or because social media now is more exposed?

ex wife scam people, ex husband yang kena.

bank account under his name

Yeah, I was curious too. Why the husband kena, not that lady?

Lol I thought is Korean celeb

Aikk bukan Kim seri yang scam ke, why she tak kena tangkap

If done correctly, scamming is the shortcut to wealth & prosperity

Lol ex wife already marry Korean hasta la vista

melayu scam melayu lagi tapi masih salah DAP salah yahudi

apparently she's all the way in korea, and recently married a Korean national. socmed comments claimed that she'd be applying for pr or what not, making it really hard for the police to make arrest.

dunno how far is the truth of the comments.

yes . she already married last week

people bankin to Kimchi trading account (if im not mistaken) and that bank account registered under his ex husband name.
thats why his ex husband arrested

ini ore kito redha jer la duit tu

salah Choi Amin...

Why Kolean merrid must take photo in kedai runcit?

low class K ?

Or average looking or sepet K?

Lesson today: do not ever let your waifu to use your name to open an account, no matter what

I sense something fishy with this gal from miles away. She doesn't seem to have a slight remorse when her case viral last time. Now still kuda happy happy with new hubby.

a lot of this kinda things so called group invitation for holidays oversea on the socmed.

the price is astonishingly cheap which i would say impossible, and yes by type m, so just be careful.
