If someone comes up to you in Malaysia with a scratch-and-win card, be wary.

Despite numerous warnings by the police, more people are falling for such scams, as the crooks begin to target Singaporeans.

The latest victim is a Singaporean woman in her early 40s, who made a police report this week after being cheated on Tuesday of $12,700, police said.

The police declined to give further details on the case, but it follows many others like it reported by Singaporean visitors to Malaysia in recent years.
