Don't give money
I read all of the comments, legitimate businesses and people do not ask for money in this way. Remember reading about actually knowing someone for years, have personal references that are valid? Keep track of all receipts if you sent any money and don't go to a differant country where you don't know anyone. There are still the sex trades who kidnap people. IF IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD OR TOO SAD, then it's a scam, real people don't sound like they are in a soap opera.

Money transfer
I had this experience with Iriss Embassy in Kuching, Sarawak. They asked me to pay some tax to enabe me to get money from my boy friend in UK..My boy friend sent me money through his fixed deposit account. At first I did made some several payment which cost me MYR10k and yet I havent received the money which they should transfer to my local bank. I was informed by my boyfriend he doesnt know anything about the procedures. He asked me to follow the instruction. I refused to do so and had lodge a police report but then the agent keeps calling me and asked me to pay the final payment which cost MYR4k and promise they will deliver the box direct to my home. I knew they are scammers and i just keep promised to do so until now but i havent made the payment. The agent scolded me and said they wil transfer the money to the charity ..i called my boyfriend and told him that i dont trust him anymore. Then the next 3 days time i received called from my boyfriend claimed that the money had been transfer back to my local bank but when I asked the officer in charge she told me to do the last payment to enable me to get the money..I told them am not going to do that cos I ahve made the payment earlier but she also told me if i failed to do so I wouldnt get the money..Nice job.

Shipping SCAMERS
I would like to bring to your attention a internet shipping scam that’s happening in Kula Lumper. I purched 10 items(GoPro cameras) on line from a site ALIBABA.COM. From a man called Mohammed Abdula, I asked him how much on the second order of 30 more items would cost. He told me not to worry, he would send the cameras with the first shipment and I could pay him when they arrived. I send him $1,600US He sent me the shipping docket as proof of shipment, which I have attached. He sent me the tracking details for the shipment. (iPost, www.directpst.com) The shipment went to China and then to Russia, then the shipment was stopped and he demanded payment saying his brother Mohammad Imran needed the money to travel to Brazil. Under duress I agreed and sent him $4,200US. for the last couple of the days the shipment still has not moved from Russia then I got an email from the insurance company saying that I needed to send them $2,250US for insurance and delivery charges from Russia. I asked to be sent a phone number for the shipping company and I was sent the number of a Mr. Idris Hassan. When I phoned him he told me I must pay the money, I told him I would get in touch with the sender, Mohammad Abdula. When I spoke to Mr. Abdulla he said I must pay the money, I told him I had not got the money and he said there is nothing he could do. This morning, I checked the domain name(directpst.com) owned by Mohammad Azim.

Other names used to collect money from Western Union. Lartey Johnson. This was the person who collected the $4,200

Internatioal CyberCrime Syndicate
On 23 May 2011, a guy approached me on Tagged.com, with the name registered as Henry Ram, from Netherland, with a cellphone number 00447935901847. He never call, only text. Asking me to go online whenever he is going online. He claimed that he is from Netherland, father died in 2002, and mother remarried and staying in Mexico. His English is very not-standard. Wrong spellings, wrong phrasing, wrong words. (after researching about similar case online, I suspect he is negro not from the States nor the UK)

He said he approached me because he likes Chinese, wanting a girl to get married. He also claimed that he has house of his own in UK, running a business in computer, cellphone and IT trading, as well as installation of air conditional system.

On the 3rd day, he said he wants to come to Malaysia and get married, but before that, he wanted to transfer money into my bank account, so that I can make arrangement to meet him soon, like renting hotels and so on. No amount was mentioned. He then said he met up with his bank manager and the bank manager told him that it is impossible to transfer money out from Netherland. So he is going to send the money through Netherland Embassy. He then said he had done the arrangement and sent me a slip as confirmation (as per attached in the attachment). The slip stating IRELAND Embassy as the issuing party, yet he said he was in Netherland.

After a 3 days, he told me that the money should arrive on 31 May 2011. Early morning before the working hours, i receive call from a local cell number: +60132750717, claiming to be Donar Ramon from Malaysia Ireland Embassy, asking me to pay for the transfer charges of RM 2,690. Saying that they will transfer the money to me within 45 mins after I cleared the transfer charges. He said I am only given 24 hours to settle the payment or the money shall be "costificated" (as per the sms sent from him.) which I assume it means the money will be gone. He also enclosed the a personal bank account number for me to bank in the money to CIMB account: 05080090186527 Mad Ridwan bin Suhaini. I did not respond to the sms knowing that this is surely a scam. He kept calling me and texting me asking if i receive his sms. I ignored him and then the guy named Henry text me asking about the progress. Pleading me to settle the money or his money will be gone. I refused. I said he could have settle the payment on his side. Then he started cursing and said he has no money and that he is outstation in Spain.

I've check with the embassy that it is impossible to send the money through the embassy and that the embassy doesn't handle money for anyone. I did not bank in any money myself. But I believe it's a big international scamming syndicate. Reporting in is hoping to prevent any one from getting scammed and cheater. I hope something can be done with the information given.
