He allegedly cheated Wan Noorhafiza, who is an undergraduate in an architecture course in Universiti Teknologi Mara, at a Maybank branch in Persiaran Perbandaran, Section 14 here, between June 19 and 28.
Deputy public prosecutor Faten Hadni Kamaruddin offered bail at RM10,000 in one surety. Lim, however, pleaded for a lower bail as he has been held in remand since earlier this month.
Judge Aslam Zainuddin granted him bail of RM8,000 in one surety and fixed Sept 6 for mention.
