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.

Dear friend, what Alex, Jan and Sabell said were totally true. Please don't send any single cent of your money to that guy and his accomplice. As Malaysian, I feel regret when many sacmmers make Malaysia as the plac to run their bad activities. For your information, the number that he gave to you is just only a prepaid number. Once he get what he want, he will disappear, block you from the website you met him, never pick up your call, never respond to your message and will terminate (offline) the number that he use now and change to the new number. I mentioned in my messages previously, they (scammers) have their same modus operandi. They'll treat you by pretending bring a lot of money, send the luxury jewelleries or valuable items to you then tell you that detained at Kuala Lumpur International Airport and need help from you to release them and the fake item that they bring. Besides, most of their accomplice are Malaysian and undeniable, those person who was the gang for this bad scam activities came from Nigeria, Africa, etc. As you know, I met the custom officer (top officer) personally and ask then about this. What he said, when someone ask you to send money yo release the person or items, they must bank in to the Royal Malaysia Custom and not to PERSONAL bank account number. Since been on of te victim of the stupid scammer, I want to help us here by stopping from sending any money to the person that we just know from online and romance site. Please take our experiences as a learning to you.I don't want you to be regreted as us. Please do believe us. May God bless all of us.
