KUCHING, May 22 -- Sarawak police are investigating the case of a civil servant allegedly losing over RM1 million to a Macau scam.

Sarawak Commercial Crimes Investigation Department (CCID) chief Mustafa Kamal Gani Abdullah said the 52-year old woman lodged a report at the Miri district police headquarters two days ago after finding her bank account was left with only RM21.

"According to the victim, she received a call on May 5 from a woman who identified herself as Syaifa binte Omar from the Terengganu High Court, claiming that the victim had embezzled a bank of RM90,000 through her credit card," Mustafa Kamal told reporters here.

He said the caller also accused the victim of selling drugs and that she was under police investigation. ...
