Kota Kinabalu: Unsuspecting consumers have been warned to be cautious of unusually cheap holiday packages promoted on social media platforms.
The warning came after two consumers were cheated of RM50,000 and RM18,000, respectively, after booking cheap overseas tour packages.
“The scam only came to light after one of the victims telephoned my office to follow up on a Canada tour package,” said a Sabah travel agent who only wanted to be known as Alan.
The victim was looking for a person known as William, but we do not have any employee by that name, he said.
