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.

Per his request he got hold up in the Airport due to millions dollars that he was carrying. He needs to pay tax and the attorney. They held him into small room without nothing and confiscated all his millions. He beg me to bail him out. He needs to pay $70,000.00 Seventy Thousand Dollars for him to retrieve his $3,000.000.00 Three Millions dollars.
