Sunway / Jeffrey Cheah Free Books Scam : What You Need To Know!
This Sunway / Jeffrey Cheah free book scam is being promoted heavily on Facebook in May and June 2023, so please alert your family and friend!
Fact #1 : Sunway Group Reported These Pages / Ads As Fake
The Sunway Group is aware of these fake advertisements being run by scam Facebook pages, posting this scam alert:
SCAM ALERT
Please be alert of several scams using fake Facebook accounts, bearing the names “Sunway Investment” and “Sunway Global Investment”, claiming to be affiliated with Sunway entities.
These Facebook accounts have NO association with Sunway Group nor that of our chairman.
We urge all to be cautious and to not fall victim to these scams, and report these fake accounts to Facebook immediately.
Fact #2 : Sunway Group Is A Business, Not A Charity
Please do NOT be naive. The Sunway Group (Sunway Berhad) is a public listed company, whose focus is to make money, not a charity to give you free books!
Fact #3 : Giveaways Were Not Posted In Official Website / FB Page
If the Sunway Group was really giving away free books, it would have posted the offer on:
- its official website (Sunway.com.my), or
- its official Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/SunwayGroupOfficial/)
These scams are being run off fake Facebook pages that are brand new, and have nothing to do with Tan Sri Dr. Jeffrey Cheah, or the real Sunway Group.

After being offered the free book on Facebook, she was asked to join a WhatsApp group called Family Discussion, where she was asked to convinced to “invest”.
The WhatsApp group administrator instructed her to download an application called Forza, and open a savings account. She was then asked to deposit money into certain bank accounts, and upload the slips using that Forza app as proof.
The lady withdrew her savings and borrowed from her children and friends to invest RM476,100. However, when she wanted to withdraw the interest paid by the company, her account was blocked. The group administrator told her that she would need to deposit an additional RM427,200 to withdraw the interest.
That was when the lady realised she had been scammed, and lodged a police report.
