In response to the allegations, Kim Seri, whose real name is Sri Azizlina (39), issued a statement via Instagram Stories apologizing for the situation. She assured her customers that she takes full responsibility and promised to refund all affected individuals by Feb 1, 2025.
“I sincerely apologize and promise to handle this matter. I ask for the patience of my customers, as the refund process will take time,” she stated.
This case has sparked widespread debate about consumer rights and the accountability of influencers in promoting services.
