SINGAPORE: A 13-year-old girl has been arrested for criminal breach of trust.
The girl, who is a student, had borrowed a mobile phone from a stranger, claiming that her own phone was not working.
To gain the stranger's trust, she also passed her faulty mobile phone and wallet to the victim for safekeeping.
After making some phone calls, the mobile phone was then returned to the owner.
Unknown to the victim, the suspect chalked up S$600 worth of online credits using the victim's mobile phone line. These charges will be tagged to the mobile line and billed to the subscriber.
The girl has been released on bail as investigations continue.
