Johor health exco warns of scam using his identity

Johor Health and Environment Committee chairman Ling Tian Soon has warned of a scam involving the use of his identity, following a voice message he received from an unknown source. According to a Facebook post, several of his acquaintances contacted him after receiving a voice message purportedly from Ling, claiming there was an emergency matter and that he wanted to borrow money.

Ling stated that the individual's accent sounded like someone from China and that his voice seemed suspicious. Ling emphasized that he had never requested any person to lend him money and urged his friends and acquaintances to be cautious about making transactions or trusting messages and calls using his identity. He hopes that everyone will take note and help spread the word to prevent others from falling victim to this scam.
