The arrest of Alan Yeo Kee Boon, 32, Fong Yip Coong, 24, and Toh Kian How, 30, was announced at a press conference at the Metropolitan Police Bureau. Pol Colonel Nakarin Sukhonthawit, deputy commander of Metropolitan Police Division 1, said police had seized two fake Mastercards and 13 fake Visa cards from the suspects. When they were apprehended by security officers at the mall, they were found to be in possession of eight fake cards but police found an additional seven in their hotel room in Soi Nana.

DGS1244 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Thought they would have used them in Malaysia, it has the highest number of fake cards anywhere in the world already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
