Fiji Woman Charged in Shocking Online Investment Scam

A woman in her 40s from Olosara, Sigatoka, has been charged with financial deception by the Fiji Police Mpaisa Task Force. The charges stem from an incident in January 2024, where she allegedly tricked a victim into investing $750 in a fraudulent online opportunity. Following an investigation by the police, she was charged with one count of obtaining financial advantage through deception. The Fiji Police Force continues to urge the public to protect their personal information, including passwords and PINs, to prevent becoming victims of online scams. The woman is scheduled to appear in court today.
