This is a great day and justice for innocent Australians who have been duped in the most elaborate scam of all time. I am also speaking representing my Malaysian friends who have also fallen into this scam. (although much warnings have been given but greed conquers all) Unfortunately, these scammers knows "bits and pieces" of tactics on how to hide below radar with the assistance of some corrupted Malaysian officials as well. (I sincerely hope that these corrupted officials are caught soon) I am so proud of MACC (backed up by special forces from various branches) for making Malaysia proud and respected. I am sure, by now, more trails of money have been discovered - possibly laundered in projects, various industries, black market, money exchange, FOREX, properties and so much more. Of course, we can't eliminate everything but at least we have crippled them serve to send a strong message to all other so-called sophisticated scammers not to mess around with the Malaysian authorities. Congratulations again to : Liam, Michael, the unsung hero Andre and many more. Including Malaysian Immigration, Malaysia Communication and Multimedia Commission, Malaysia Cyber Security, Telekom Malaysia, Company Commission of Malaysia, Tenaga Nasional Berhad and Inland Revenue/Income Tax Board. My hats off to the Malaysia Anti-Corruption Commission.

Off topic for this video. But another scam is Africans contacting the lonely older generation on Facebook and other sites. Or the older generation going on websites to connect with other lonely people. The Africans, usually from Nigeria, use pictures they find online of younger white handsome men or beautiful women pretending to be them. Then they will start asking for money, that they have a sick child, stuck in another country, or they are going to fly to see them but they can’t get their passport or airline ticket. Of course this happens after they have love bombed these naive older men or women, who do not understand technology, usually. They ask for gift cards, etc. If you know anyone risking this, share KZread channel Catfished. It’s astounding that mostly elderly women send their hard earned savings and retirement to these scumbags!!!

Great Job but more needs to be done to get rid of those accomplices at the local authorities too. Cheating organisations can survive mainly due to incompetent law enforcement officers and corruptions at the law enforcement officers. Overall, a job well done by 7News Spotlight and SPRM in Malaysia.

How many people watching this are aware of the Lux Sports Car Rental scammer? He charged customers a deposit ($2K to $10K) which was never returned. Always got away unscathed (as The Age published on 22 Dec 2019) and kept doing this for 15 or 20 years under different names. Our laws are obviously not adequate!

I love Liams confrontation style. "Hello. How you feeling? You look pretty helpless on the floor there. Now you know how your victims felt when you scammed every penny out of them." Turns to another scammer: "Excuse me! Your a bit quiet down there. Whats your name?" Scammer: "Matt." Liam: "I'm Liam, Matt. So... what have you got to say for yourself?" Scammer: "I'm not saying anything without a lawyer." Liam: "You want a lawyer? Your gonna need more than a lawyer, mate." Liam should have said "You want a lawyer? That can be arranged. There's a lawer in New South Wales i can hook you up with, hes one of your victims you scammed $12 million dollars out of. I'm sure he be willing to represent you and have no objections to the crown asking for the maximum prison term."

Thank you for the great work!

A major issue with Australian Police not doing anything is that they are unable to do anything when the scammers are overseas. They can not take actions unless invited to by foreign Law Enforcement. The same goes for foreign Police taking action against Australian criminals. India Police are well known for taking bribes, and letting scammers keep scamming. It's been well documented that they take bribes, and let scammers go free to continue scamming. They aren't the only country to have this issue/problem. The other issue is the police in other countries can't do much when the victim willingly but unwittingly gives their money to the scammers. Governments around the world need to do more to up the ante so they can make scammers easier to catch and prosecute. Also, there are pages on Facebook that have been created by scammers with the sole purpose of selling leads to other scammers. "Leads" are personal information, such as names, addresses, phone numbers, and bank details, etc. of victims who have been successfully scammed, and those who could be possible successful victims. Thousands of leads on just one page, and there are many MANY pages all selling "leads".

I endorse all your claims. But there is a global Common Law that if a victim, say in Australia, obtains a Court Order in his country, he can get the Australian Police to contact Interpol, who in turn liaises with the Police in that country to get the Criminal arrested. The Australian Police should have advised their nationals on the legal dispositions. Together they could have obtained results earlier, reducing the collateral damage.

@namewithheldbygoogleforsec673

@@sammyrnaj i understand that, but as i stated many of the foreign Police can't do much when the victim gives the scammers the money, even though it was through deceptive practices. In India the scammers get arrested, but let free because they tell the Police they were supplying technical support, and it is payment. The other issue is a lot of victims of scams are elderly and don't realise they have been scammed or a better way to put it is had money stolen, so they don't report it. So even if Interpol were involved, there needs to be more people reporting, and unfortunately there aren't enough reporting. And in some cases where Interpol have been involved they have not been able to do much. I have scammers call me often, and I NEVER call them scammers. I call them exactly what they are --- Criminals.
