KUALA LUMPUR: Multiple police reports have been lodged after at least 20 individuals claimed to have lost over RM15mil in luxury timepieces to a watch reseller.

MCA Public Services and Complaints Department head Datuk Seri Michael Chong said clients had entrusted their watches to a shop operated by a woman, who would earn a commission once a sale was made.


However, Chong said problems began to surface in December last year, when the woman allegedly informed clients that their watches had been sold but failed to return the proceeds.

"She gave numerous excuses, ranging from delayed customer deposit payments to claiming she was suffering from mental health issues.


"This led many frustrated victims to visit her shop, only to find its doors shuttered since March this year," he told reporters during a press conference at Wisma MCA on Thursday (May 15).

More money more problems.
Spend it wisely la.

I wonder how much higher than market price this shop offered for the watches until people are willing to put their watches there.

Time & Times Luxe Empire
Amcorp mall

Sell on consignment, all sudah kena con.

Greedy-la....

That's why news nowadays is so freaking useless, don't give any useful information and like to blur criminal face.

That's why scammers are thriving nowadays.

Only give long details when it involves pervert crap.

first was the conmen buyer that gives a bounce check then ask lalamove to go collect the luxury watch

then there was the ABC scam that happened recently, the buyer go take loan from ahlong using the seller's information, then seller pass the watch to buyer and ahlong paid the seller, then ahlong ask back money from the seller

and then now this watch reseller scam

so scary and dangerous la, better dont buy luxury watch as investment

Why people want to invest in luxury watches?

why no COD?

Why find Michael Ching instead of PPIM

You got potential

Now u need courage and opportunity to do it

Can judge a person good or bad by their look? 👀

Any face reading expert?

It too rich for my blood. But fact is it does appreciate.

only really 1 brand (rolex) appreciates or can resell easily, the rest are shit investments, don't treat watch collecting as investments.

such large cash use COD ?

Our country laws are like berak on scam prevention.

Seriously man, if Madani buck up and PN stop rambling on racing issues, and start to focus on social issues.

Start to discuss seriously on enacting laws to prevent scams

resell and repeat the process , some say having watch is a symbol of status

4.7 based from 13 reviews. that's noob records

plenty of fellas offer Google Review service these days bro. can make it like organic within few weeks, using established Google accounts with 100+ reviews and pics+videos summore

Well there is AP and things like that. In anycase these are rich peoples gane la.

Also. I wonder why they cover their face ahhh

during MCO

Next time go Singapore and sell lah.

dunno she out of mental institute boh

Tutup malu.

Most look young. Really la. This watch thing is rich man's domain.

bolehland full of sohei....kecian

honestly running a legit business in this country is tough, you get bogged down by taxes, audits, competition..etc. jilake declare less taxes they come after you immediately but when there are criminal / fraud cases it takes them forever to take action. It is no wonder why so many would rather scam others, it's just much easier since enforcement is lax.

Got some cunning nose style like rosmah

nama owner macam dari negara konoha ja

direct e-banking when handover product. why so difficult? is this something that me B40 don't understand?

I got scammed 8k by a vendor's employee.

Fortunately the vendor was willing to borne the losses.

Call the polis, they just say its a commercial case, call the lawyers.

In USA, fraud is a crime, just look at the singer Sean Kingston, police arrested him for fraud case.

Our outdated laws need to be overhauled.

Parliament everyday just argue on irrelevant issues. Madani tepuk dada everything ok. PN, only care about RnR issues, incompetent in their own state SG4.

Nowadays, nobody can be trusted.

It got me to be more careful, when paying anything > 1k.
