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.

hi Jan !do u believe his words that he wl reimburse u before leave to UK? the guy who cheated me said the same thing before he left to Uk but till now he nvr show up and closed his account fm FB.I hv lost about RM 5000 to pay for his damn rental and some axes which he had to pay to claim his fund! lastly he detained in airport deported to UK and his cash money was on hold in British High Commission and wanted me help to pay to claim his fund with USD 10, 000! that was crazy and I didn't hv such big amount.after I cheated him that I went to police station to report something and he thought that I was reported about him , after this he nvr call again till now and closed all his account online! wat a coward?!! cheating woman's money, I wonder y he doesn't feel shame bout himself as a useless tool abducted cheating woman's money to survive! if I were his family I wld extremely feel shame bout him! so don't put high expectation of he wld reimburse u or not, I just font want u be upset if he cldnt do it.just forget and forgive bout it and be more smarter in future.I hope u r fine..really I am.u can go thru it,my fren!

omg this is my letters
I feel so used and vulnerable but I guess I was open to it, I was a widow and alone, I really fell in love with him and see now that it was a scam, which he said was totally not a scam, that he loved me and I hope no one ever has to feel what I've been feeling, the worry and grief for him!!!

Alfred Hernanadez
My letters from Jarvis are almost exactly the same as Seng's above. For almost a year we've been writing, I totally love this man, but he has said almost the same exact things to me!!! I'm still waiting and worrying about his health and welfare in Malaysia, but I realize now this is a scam. So if I hear from him I will have to be brave and end this relationship, he didn't borrow that much and i'm emotionally a basket case cause I care so much! I'm seeing a therapist and trying to get well. Calling me angel and love, and wife, how hurtful and why would someone do that?
