Police said on Friday that a woman has reported losing almost HK$17 million in a cryptocurrency scam.

The force said the 56-year-old sought their help on Monday, claiming a man had recommended her to buy HK$8.8 million worth of cryptocurrency through an online app.

She told investigators that she had got acquainted with the man after responding to an investment advertisement she received via online messaging.
