Rayen Pono accompanied by his attorney, Patricho, visited the SPKT Polda Metro Jaya this afternoon, Friday (29/12). Rayen Pono’s arrival was to report a case of alleged fraud he had experienced.
Rayen Pono admitted that he had been deceived regarding a fictitious gig order. As a result of this fraud, Rayen Pono suffered a loss of IDR 20 million.
The musician said that initially he received an offer to perform at an PUPR Ministry event. However, it turned out that the event did not actually exist.
“Initially this was actually a job offer, for me to perform on December 27 2023 at the PUPR Ministry. Well, this fraudster claimed to be from the PUPR ministry’s in house, offered me a job, finally contacted my manager,” said Rayen Pono when met at Polda Metro Jaya, Friday (29/12).
Rayen Pono also said that the person suspected of being the perpetrator of the fraud admitted to having transferred the payment. In fact, the alleged perpetrator sent proof of transfer to Rayen Pono which was discovered to be fake.
However, the alleged fraudster admitted that he had an excess when transferring money to Rayen Pono, so he asked for IDR 20 million to be returned. After transferring the amount requested by the alleged fraudster, Rayen Pono’s manager realized something was odd.
“So when the fake transfer proof was sent, my manager didn’t have time to cross-check it,” explained Rayen Pono.
“After the transfer, I started to get suspicious, it turned out the order was fictitious,” said Patricho, Rayen Pono’s attorney.
“Feeling strange after transferring, it’s like you just realized, ‘I think you’ve been cheated’, like that. Without checking the account mutation. And after feeling strange, you just contacted the finance person to check,” continued Rayen Pono, explaining again.
