Malaysian influencer Kim Seri denies fleeing to Japan as South Korea tour losses rise
The travel operator said she is willing to cooperate with the authorities as losses linked to the alleged scam hit US$100,000
Kim Seri, whose real name is Seri Azlina, said she is ready to cooperate with the authorities following police reports and almost half a million ringgit in losses linked to the South Korea tour package scandal, Sinar Harian reported.
“I never intended to run to Japan, and I never planned to live in Japan. I am still in Korea.
“I am still here [in Korea] cooperating with any investigations conducted on me,” she said in an Instagram post on Thursday.
The Seoul-based Malaysian influencer recently issued a public apology and promised to refund customers affected by issues arising from her South Korea travel packages.
A video went viral recently showing a woman claiming to be one of Kim Seri’s victims.
