“We have discovered at least two fraudulent rebate offers online for the newly-launched Perodua Ativa, which is not our practice,” Perodua president and chief executive officer Datuk Zainal Abidin Ahmad said.
He said the fake promotions did not originate from Perodua or any of its outlets nationwide.
According to Zainal Abidin, some scammers have posed as Perodua sales advisors before and lured potential victims into placing their new car purchase deposits into personal bank accounts.
To safeguard both existing and potential Perodua customers, the company has complied a quick ‘Do’s and Don’ts guide when purchasing a new Perodua vehicle.
