Case of man accused of Covid-19 scam postponed as he falls sick

According to the European Union s law enforcement agency Europol, a suspect had taken the identity of a legitimate company and advertised the fast delivery of surgical masks and hand sanitisers. Once the pharmaceutical company transferred the funds to a bank in Singapore, the items were never delivered and the supplier became uncontactable, said the agency in a statement. It added that the EU authorities informed their Singaporean counterparts and asked them to act swiftly.
