The Magical Ms Mana arrested for $1M dollar scam
30 November 2017
PHNOM PENH - In Cambodia, even the rich and educated bow before the mysterious dictates of magic spells and good luck ceremonies, conducted by people whose credentials reside solely in their charisma. While the poor make do with humble witch-doctors, the wealthy hire "magic-astrologers". Thus, a wealthy couple of property developers, Aing Kyheng and his wife Tith Phalla, thought nothing of paying a self-professed magician a total sum of $350,000 to conduct magic ceremonies every weekend from 2015 in order to guarantee them further wealth.
However, when the astrologer asked her clients for property titles that she needed to make magic, and then used the documents to borrow $1M from the bank, the victims finally realised that they had been scammed.
Ms Mana, a well-known astrologer, and her husband, also a property businessman, were arrested on Tuesday for allegedly cheating nearly $1 million from a couple of property developers in Phnom Penh.The suspects will appear in Phnom Penh municipal court today on charges of fraud.

The Cambodian wealthy will eat themselves, and the rest of Cambodia along with it.

Perhaps they could help me sell the land I own on the moon.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
