ALOR SETAR, Oct 5 — A 39-year-old self-employed woman lost about RM150, including her BUDI Madani RON95 (BUDI95) petrol subsidy and reward points, after a phone scammer posing as a Touch ‘n Go representative compromised her e-wallet.

Kedah Consumers Association (Cake) president Mohamad Yusrizal Yusoff said the victim lodged a report at the association’s office yesterday.

“The victim said the caller offered her a new Touch ‘n Go card with various perks, including reward points, store vouchers offering discounts of up to 80 per cent, and overseas spending capabilities.

“After she agreed to apply for the card, the caller instructed her to open her Touch ‘n Go e-wallet application and follow specific instructions,” he said in a statement today.
