A middle-aged woman from Macau has fallen victim to an online dating scam twice, losing a total of MOP500,000. In May, she began a relationship with a man she met online, who convinced her to invest in cryptocurrencies. After initially reporting the scam, she encountered another man on the same platform. Over several weeks, he persuaded her to open six bank accounts and share her personal information. When she tried to withdraw her funds, he vanished, prompting her to seek police assistance.
