SINGAPORE: A 22-year-old man has been jailed for 42 months by a district court over a car rental scam.
Allen Tan Wei Loon posted his services on car websites.
He lied that he has cars to rent out or claimed that he would be renting their cars.
In doing so, he induced his victims to transfer money to him or to hand over their cars to him.
However, Tan did not deliver on his promises after obtaining the cash and the vehicles.
The total amount he cheated was about S$134,000, of which S$112,000 had been recovered.
Tan was also disqualified from driving for four years for driving without a licence or insurance coverage. - CNA/vm
