🀄 Dating App → Rigged Mahjong Scam — Full Details
📅 Timeline

- Games ran: April–June 2024
- Reported: Victim filed police report after threat; Chin arrested early June 2024
- Sentencing: Olivia Chin sentenced 1 Oct 2026
🧠 Mastermind & Group
- Alleged mastermind: Marcus Ang Yi Sheng, 27 — devised the whole scheme
- Co-conspirators (all Singaporean): Chloe Low Zhiyi (Ang's girlfriend), Jason Chin Yi Sheng, Kristy Tan Siew Boon, Leong Ying Liat, Penelope Kek Yong Ru, Belinda Chee Yan Lin, Li Yongyi Joaquin — total 9 people
- How they knew each other: Through Ang — school, work, or mahjong connections
🎣 Lure — Dating App Deception
- Ang created fake female profiles on OkCupid & Tinder
- Posed as women himself to chat; arranged meetups → invited victims to play mahjong
- Once confirmed, sent a female accomplice to meet the victim and host the game
🎲 How the Games Were Rigged
- Setup: 4-player game — victim vs. 3 accomplices
- Roles assigned:
- One player → block victim from winning
- One → form winning hands quickly
- One → discard tiles needed by another conspirator
- Reserve player: observed victim's style & relayed intel; substituted if players tired
- Trained players: Leong Ying Liat taught the rest
- "99% win rate" — Ang's estimate
- Rules: Ang set betting rates; "unlimited tai" = no cap on winnings
- Locations: Private flats (e.g., Tan's residence) & SAFRA Toa Payoh
- Payouts: All winnings surrendered to Ang; players got $300–$500 commission per session
💰 Scale & Losses
- 28 games arranged → 19 actually played
- 28 victims targeted
- Total estimated gains: > S$100,000
- Olivia Chin's involvement: 10 games; earned $100–$400/game
- Extreme case: Victim told to pay S$26,000 from one game (1 Jun 2024) — refused
- Pressure tactics: Accomplices offered to "cover half" to coax payment; Ang allegedly threatened victim's workplace & falsely accused him of rape → victim reported to police

- Charges: 4 counts conspiracy to cheat + 1 count unlawful gambling; 32 more charges taken into consideration

Satanyahu frequently frames Israel—and himself—as a reactive victim of an existential, coordinated threat rather than an aggressor in the Gaza war. So cannot believe whatever that is said by them.
