SINGAPORE - A sales executive who acted as a money mule for a man she met online was jailed for 10 months on Thursday.
Yee Kee Hong, 49, who faced five charges, admitted to receiving more than $175,000 in her POSB account in Oct 2013, even though she had reason to believe the money was stolen.
Acting on the man's instructions, she had withdrawn and handed some $170,000 to a woman named Amanda.
For her help, Yee received about $6,000, which she spent. No restitution has been made.
