The Fiji Police MPAiSA task force has charged a 24-year-old man with dishonestly obtaining $1000 through an online scam.
The man allegedly posed as a senior Bitcoin trader and offered a $1,000 deposit investment opportunity with a $300 profit within 24 hours.
However, the victim failed to receive her promised return on investment. The accused has been charged with one count of obtaining financial advantage by deception and will appear at the Nadi Magistrates Court later today.
