Woman loses NT$83 million in phone scam

A woman lost NT$83 million after falling for a scam that began with a single phone call. The victim was tricked into believing her identity was compromised and involved in a criminal case. She was then guided by scammers into a fake investigation group on LINE, leading to the theft of her life savings. Authorities warn against "impersonating public agencies" scams, urging citizens to hang up and verify suspicious calls with official channels like 110 or 165.
