SINGAPORE: A man who allegedly worked as a scam caller for a gang that targeted and cheated victims in Singapore was charged on Dec 30.
Eugene Goh, 24, was handed one charge under the Organised Crime Act for his role in the syndicate believed to be behind at least 438 scam cases in which victims lost over S$41 million.
Court documents allege that around Sept 9, the Malaysian national had been a scam caller at a call centre in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, and acted to cheat targeted victims in Singapore.
The Cambodia-based syndicate had allegedly been set up sometime in 2024 by Singaporean brothers Ng Wei Liang, 32, and Ng Wei Kang, 33.
The duo are still at large.
On Sept 9, a joint operation by the Singapore and Cambodian police forces targeted the group, leading to the identification of its members and seizing of assets.
