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.

People asking to sent money online
People that you just got to know and haven't met in person asking you to transfer money for any reason is a course to be concerned. 100% of the time it is a scam. And any time they give you a +601 and +447 number to call is a scam. So ladies out there be careful. These people have no conscience and compassion because even if you have to beg or borrow they will not feel guilty. So ladies be smart and be safe.
