NotesYOUR ONLINE FRIEND WAS NOT ARRESTED AT THE AIRPORT.
YOU ARE BEING SCAMMED.


Have you been having conversations online with someone you've never met before who claims to live in the UK? Has he told you that he will come to visit you in Malaysia? And now is he frantically contacting you because he are being held at the airport, and needs you to pay a fine so he can be freed?

It is a scam. There is no romance, and there is nobody being detained at KLIA. The same person who was chatting online with you was also chatting online with many other victims. They are trying to trick you into sending money to an accomplice. Once you have sent the money they will disappear forever. Every year these scammers bilk unsuspecting victims out of thousands of ringgit. Don't be one of them.

scammed
Hi, I think Ive been conned by a scammer too. I get to know a guy by the name Owen Scott and after a while he told me he is coming to meet me in my country. on the day he is supposed to arrive, I received a call from a lady who claims she is an official in KLIA and told me my fren was detained in KLIA as he brought in a lot of cash into Malaysi and demanded that I paid 5k to bailed him out. He talked to me too and believing all those, I gave the money which I was told to deposit into an account. I was dump, I paid but he was still detained and they kept asking me to pay more and more. Being stupid and in loved I paid all and finally I was told he will be deported back to UK. I was so devastated, I think Im being cheated. what do you guys think

to loretta and other victims: check this website and tell your friends
do what loretta's advise. even if the money were not return to us, at least the fbi can catch not all scammers but some is a good gesture that the fbi are serious about this scam. provide the fbi the name of the transfer agency: western union and the moneygram transfer and the MTCN or the control number given to us. for sure the fbi knows where to start. but let me remind you, the western union has a blog because there is an accomplice inside the western union.search this website and you will read more about these nigerian scammers.

There is a phone number in UK #0300 123 2040 where you can call and file report over the phone. You can actualy go to the website :
http://www.soca.gov.uk/contact-soca. SOCA is :Serious Organised Crime Agency.The 24/7 telephone number for SOCA is 0370 496 7622.
But please if you live in USA do the FBI - IC3 complaint. They gather similar stries of victims and this way they build the case. In this report write all information. My boss who is a lawyer contacts them about my case , and they actualy have some answers. Please this is so important , FBI and ACTIONFRAUD.UK need to know. Without us a scammer will strike again. My scammer still calls me and cries for more money . But I was so stupid and I gave him all...
