SINGAPORE — Inspired by the long-running television show Crimewatch, an unemployed couple decided that running scams on e-marketplace Carousell was a way to make some quick cash.

Crimewatch is a documentary-drama TV series produced in partnership with the police to re-enact criminal cases in order to help solve crimes and to educate the public on crime prevention.

Over about a year, Muhammad Haadii Asmadi and his fiance Sushilawati Selamat cheated almost S$10,000 from more than 30 victims.

Haadii, 30, was sentenced to 10 months’ jail on Monday (May 18). He pleaded guilty to nine cheating charges, with another 24 similar ones taken into consideration for sentencing.
