The fraud was revealed by Persatuan Pengguna Islam Malaysia (PPIM) after collecting a year of evidence and information from about 1,600 individuals who were victims of the scheme, which involve 100 of millions.
The information I get to are mostly dated 3-5 years ago started from 2007 – 2011. Where lots of complains has been circling around the corner, giving warning to this business and the nearest information i got was dated 08-10-2011 from PPIM where the director has been hand-cuffed finally!
I drilled down into a few pictures, which doesn’t looks like ‘him’ on first sight~ so i just lay down all these photos for you to judge and compare if that is him ~
