    This is hilarious. Who in their right mind pays $270,000 on ‘staycation’ packages and then whinges that they have ‘no time’ to make a police report after getting cheated!! Loser ! 😂😂😂

    This is easy to catch as the scammer is in Singapore. If it is an overseas scammer or syndicate, then you can say goodbye to your money and police won't be able to catch them so easily.
