The Judiciary Police (PJ) issued a warning on Saturday afternoon calling on citizens to exercise caution when dealing with a self-proclaimed “Malaysian Prince” who was filmed seated in front of a large amount of money at a Cotai casino.
According to videos circulating on social networks and information that the PJ collected, the man has used a technique to beat the casino; a skill that enables him to win huge sums of money every time he plays.
The same sources also revealed that he had allegedly offered to teach his technique to many other players, charging an hourly fee of USD10,000 for the gambling lessons.
Although no complaints regarding any illicit activity performed by the man have been received, the PJ is warning citizens to be aware of the possibility that the person is a scammer, as he has previously been involved in an investment scheme with the purpose of raising funds.
In the process, he was said to have used the name of a local junket operator (Suncity Group), prompting in the company issuing a statement on May 18. The group stated that they have learned that “illegal fundraising and sales activities were running at Crowne Plaza Danang, Vietnam and Paradise City, Incheon, Korea, by a certain individual by the name of Wangzi Suncity,” adding that “the Group, its affiliates and its related companies, have neither signed any partnership agreements nor engaged in any commercial associations or business activities with ‘Wangzi SunCity’.” They also added that they never authorized any person to perform any of the mentioned activities under the Group’s name.
As TDM reported, in the footage circulating, a large group of people that is surrounding the man is also seen and heard chanting, “We love the Prince (Wangzi), Wangzi Suncity” in Mandarin.
