Just a day after the Immigration Department raided an abandoned resort in Sungai Lembing, Pahang, arresting 98 people, intelligence officers staked out the perimeter. On October 6, a 35-year-old Chinese national attempting to enter the Lake Castle resort was caught on the spot. Armed with his statements, police raided five other locations across Kuantan, detaining 11 more suspects. The group of 12 consists of ten Chinese men, one Indian man, and one Myanmar woman, all aged between 21 and 35.
According to investigators, the cell ran a classic fake investment scam. Posing as customer service representatives, members targeted victims in China and Europe via Telegram and Meta Business, luring them into depositing funds into a fraudulent platform called the Minca investment app. Operating on local networks for about two months, the crew maintained a modest footprint, yielding 14 phones, eight computers, two routers, and a vehicle worth roughly 215,000 ringgit.
Scattering operational desks into residential houses across secondary towns has become a common tactic to evade scrutiny, but it leaves behind fragile links once a primary hub collapses. Pahang police have launched formal proceedings under cheating and criminal conspiracy charges, with downstream and upstream networks still under active tracking.
