Nilai police report four arrests after searches at three residences used for online-sales and love scams. The four suspected service roles and seizures are not all established as romance-only.
Investigation or court: Malaysia
Unlisted locations remain unknown. Nationality, language and web address alone do not establish where a scam happened.
These labels describe the available reporting. “Not reported” does not mean a harm did not happen. A theme's stage applies to that statement, not every claim in the article.

Only direct reviewed connections are shown. Shared wording is weaker evidence than a supported case connection. A connection through a third article does not establish that two reports concern the same case.
Both describe four foreign suspects in Nilai online scams; the fuller account includes mixed scam types. Direct relationship only; not independent corroboration or a transitive case merge.
