Promises of high returns with capital protection are often traps; this time, hundreds of victims in Malaysia have filed collective reports, hoping the police will actually recover the stolen funds rather than letting it go unresolved again.

According to New Straits Times, the Malaysian International Humanitarian Organization (MHO) gathered over 100 investment scam victims on June 23, demanding that the police accelerate investigations into 18 companies and investment platforms suspected of being involved in group-style scams. The victims and MHO representatives have submitted 18 memoranda to the Commercial Crime Investigation Department (CCID), requesting that investigations be completed quickly and charges be filed. The report states that the related complaints involve various projects such as foreign exchange trading, cryptocurrency investments, overseas funds, gold, real estate, and stocks. Many victims claimed to have been promised high returns, fixed profits, and capital protection, but were subsequently unable to recover their funds.
