Women loved and left dry by M'sian Casanova

By Shaun Ho

Four women who discovered they were dating the same man, who eventually cheated them of their money, have banded together to make sure the same fate does not befall other women.

The women had been seeing the 30-year-old Casanova for about a month when he started asking for money.

One victim, who wished to be known only as Ms Tang, 28, said the man she knew as Ken Isaac told her his business was having financial difficulties last year.

He eventually managed to borrow RM26,000, with some of the money coming from funds which Ms Tang had set aside for her mother's surgery.

She lodged a police report last month after learning from Ken's friend that he was duping her as well as other women.

The other victims, who only wanted to be known as Ms Eng, Ms Beh and Ms Lee, all in their late 20s, said Ken had used many aliases - like Isaac Leong and Leong Ken Lee - to trick them.

The four women met MCA Public Services and Complaint Department head Datuk Michael Chong on Tuesday to urge other victims to come forward and lodge complaints.
