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.

I have been receiving this type of e-mails quite frequently from different e-mails address that i'm not aware & almost all of them are asking me to fill up their form with all my personal particulars.

i'm lara and having a serious relationship with a man, name patrick lake from US but was at manchester doing his project work as he said he have construction company. After we chat abt our previous life, he willing to help me to settle all my debts by send 100,000 pound sterling which is abt RM500,000. He said a man from british embassy will help me to do all the procedure needs for the transaction. After one by one procedures n payment, i follow and paid which is about RM50,000, the embassy man tell me that the last procedure need is a sign from malaysian ambassador and need another RM5,000 before sign. I please them not to ask any money coz i dont afford anymore but the ambassador dont care and still want the money even i said i will pay after they transfer the money. And about patrick lake who is the sender, just take a part to make sure i pay all payment by love words. He swear to me to marry me and wont leave me for ever and will bring me to stay at US. He cannot help me to pay all the payment bcoz he said he was at the bush and cant do anything there coz dont have money with him even he said he is a boss... So confused???? Now, bcoz i cant get the rm5000 the embassy man have to hold the money and he said he going to get his friends help and ask me to do the same and i think he not do anything at all and only me have to suffer to find the money all this while.
So, what i have to do now.... If the ambassador is really want the money as the embassy man told me please send me email jasmin_j73@yahoo.com. I'm not a rich woman and really need money to pay all the debts i made bcoz of the money they promise me to transfer to my account. Please understand my situation they will kill me if i'm not pay the debts from these loan shark... Please help me or i die...
Pleassseeee... I need ur symphaty and emphaty...
For your information, i had sent most of the payments tru Tan Guat Neo account at public bank and ambank.
