Recently, many parents received calls alleging that their children were kidnapped, with the callers demanding a ransom for their release.
The latest case involved a kindergarten teacher who was told that her 13-year-old daughter had been kidnapped, and that the girl would be harmed if the family did not pay RM60,000 for her release.
The caller had let the girl’s elder sister hear her cry, it reported.
The teacher later found out that her daughter was safe in school just before she paid the ransom.
