As reported on Apple Daily, Carman disclosed that the incident happened to her manager Ali, who received a call from a person claiming to be an official and saying that Carman was suspected of money laundering and drug trafficking.
The person also provided a telephone number of the Security Bureau for her to call, and after failing to get through to the number, Ali then received a call from a person who identified himself as an investigation officer.
The person requested Ali to log on to a website that showed her the accurate details about Carman, including passport number and date of birth, and told her that the actress would be arrested the moment she arrived in Beijing.
After being asked to assist in the investigation, Ali followed the instructions of the so-called investigator, only to realise that all of Carman's savings were stolen from her account not long after.
The actress revealed that she has already made a police report, and reminded everybody not to fall victim to such a scam.
"A lot of people said that it would be hard for me to get my money back, but I do harbour some hope. I really wish the police will be able to arrest the criminal and return my hard-earned money to me," she said.
However, Carman did not blame Ali for the mistake, saying that she has now learned from the experience to handle her finance on her own in future.
