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.

Be careful ladies
I like to share with all of you here. Be careful when a person you know online or fb giving you mobile number. Actually that person is not in the country but they all in Malaysia. What i mean is that the buying sim cards from the country like UK or canada and the use it to make it like real where they call you using that number. That is the reason why so many things happen in Malaysia. The story behind that to make you believe they coming to visit you and enough having problems here and there. So pls take note on that.

Thanks for Darlyn and celia
I knew it from the beginning he sent me a message on my fb. We still keep in touch by phone. This guy very good in this business. I want to play my game on him.
To all ladies out there I have one story which i like to share with you all ladies. I been chatting with this guy since November last year and he like me so much but i told him that am not ready to have relationship with him. I tell him the reason and he really appreciate it. We chat every day and he call me every night. We did using Skype too . finally last month/may when i chatting with him i was shock when he said he wants to tell me something. I say am here and am listening. He sent me pictures of the real person who was chatting with me for about five months. He is a black man from UK .The reason he uses white man profile picture because he sent ones request to my fb using his real profile but i didn't reply it.so he uses other way. He try hard to get some money from me by doing a lot of sad story so bad am not that easy person to ask. The reason he opens up to me because he said am so kind and very caring person.
So i ask him to meet me in person and we did it last two weeks. He told me every thing how they do it and he said stop looking man from Internet or onlinedating sites. What they do the use wwhite man pic and on Skype their have system that make them look like the real person in the picture. I was very lucky this person helping me to open my eyes and thanks to god blessing me every day.

About this guy who named Francis Ramy working as a pilot in UK
I just want to warn all fb users around the world about Francis Ramy who worked as a pilot ever,,,he's really a bastard. At first, he called me and ask me to help him in financial problem coz he was in Dubai for business and his money is not enough coz the prize of Werner veit a chemical went up. I send him money, once in Dubai and twice in Indonesia. He got a lot of accomplish coz he used other names to send the money faster. The last one is here in KL asking me 5thousand ringgit and I didn't believe him this time so he blocked me on fb without paying all the money he borrowed from me.

I am so sorry for you. This Bennet Cole contacted me recently and I felt that something was wrong. So I found this page and want to thank you for writing here. I do not come to have any contact with this kind of scammer.
