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.

Verification Require
I had been chatting online & phone calls with this guy, Gary David from Cardiff, Wales, UK. Initially,we just chat & after a few weeks he told me that he is participating a contract with Petronas (that worth USD36 million) Terranggu for pipeline refurbishment because I am here. He said after his contract, we will meet & discuss our future plan but he keep on telling not to tell others about us & said he want us to surprise the world. And, after a few days, he told me he had won the contract. He posted his contract award with Petronas & later show me his air ticket depature from London on 22/4/2017. And when arrived KL, he called me using 011 (Digi) said he bought a local line. Then on 28/4, he told me that he got problem on payment of GST with Kastam Terranggu & he is short of fund (RM21K) to pay GST for his machinery that he ordered from China,
& he requesting me to help him. He show me the Kastam payment request so I believe him & transfer the money to him. He said he don't have local bank account & ask me to transfer it to his staff by the name of Suhaily Binti Ruslan, Public Bank account no. : 4301728622. And, the next day, he told me that he had successfully clear all his machinery. And till today, we chat on whatsapp & phone call everyday, I had requested for video call but he told me Petronas don't allow, if got caught, the contract will be terminated & had given a Netflix phone without camera. So, we just continue to chat as normal. Just last week, I talk to my friend whom married to a Swedish guy, she told me that there were a lot of scam & Malyasian women are the major. She asked to check & verify whether this guy is genuine or not. So, I contact the Kastam Terranggu & I had provide the Payment request & payment receipt to the officer & today I got this infor saying that both documents are not from their office. So, with this I contacted Petronas Terranggu a while ago & had email the officer the contract award letter asking for verification. I should have the answer by 3pm today.
I would like to seek your advice, what should I do if all these are fake ? Can we track this syndicate ?
Thank you.

Scammer
I needed a rental property in Sydney for a month. Found one online under Max Cooper. Emailed him back and forth, he was pushing to pay the deposit soon which was almost 90% of total rent, gave me a bank account number in Malaysia under Selvam Sokkaiah to transfer money. When I did my research online found this website article under the same person name. Got lucked out, did not transfer money.
