Same guy a few months ago must have been working for Income Insurance and called me... 

Why these guys keep using the same plot? they must have fired their creative writer.

Curious who this fellow is. This is not some addled rich eccentric old man easily fooled.

He has 5 mio to just lend out and moves in those circles where it is not unexpected to receive direct communication from people in high office.

Really suspicious if you ask me. What is going on. Hope this is not another "dinner group photo" case [laugh]

Read the article, it says "He only realised that he had been scammed after contacting the Secretary to the Cabinet on Thursday".

The victim can casually contact mr wong to enquire. Can any of us?

Hmm... new way to make money. But how not to get caught, seem stupid. Probably just expendable pawns.

A rather detailed explanation of how this happened. 

Dunno what's worse..

A "businessman" that is duped so easily. 

or 

A "businessman" who seems very well connected transferring huge sums to "govt" like its a natural thing to do.
