I would like to highlight this online scams so that the public will be aware and together we can catch these bloody scamsters.
In early Jan I met a James Wendy Walker via a local Msian Online Dating Chat called idate.com.my. And in less than 2 weeks he confessed he was in love with me and confirmed I'm the one-to-be ie. his wife. His 1st wife died of childbirth in 2007. He then went on saying he will be in a remote place called Enugu to set up some satellites for the forthcoming World Cup 2010 in South Africa. In any case, he cooked up a very sobby and juicy story that I'm the only can help him out there - and he wanted me western union him some money usd2000 just so to complete his assignment and get out from that remote and dangerous place. Well, I was not gullible neither am I a stupid woman but sadly I fell into his trap! He promised to pay asap when he's out of Enugu.
Sadly, it didn't happen and yet he dropped a big surprise by saying he sent out a parcel last Saturday Feb 13th under my name, address and mobile. I was angry with him and asked why he didn't get my prior consent and I demanded to know what's the contents.
Then on Wed 17/2, a chinese woman identifying as Mrs Wong told me there's a parcel for me to clear in KLIA customs and I have till 4 pm that day. She asked me to deposit 6, 000 GBP into an account (upon confirmation if I have the money she will give the account no. to me). Obviously I told I was not aware of all this and she should contact the sender. But she declined to do so. And in less than 1 hour she called this time and spoke in cantonese to me and sounded me saying if I don't clear the parcel by 4 pm that day, the customs will cut open and if the contents are found to be monies I will be accountable! Then I told her I didn't know anything about the parcel. Then I called to this idiot James Wendy and questioned him and he told me it contained USD2million!
I was shocked! And he told me to western union him USD500 to help him to buy his flight ticket from London so that he can get into KL to clear the parcel himself!! On the same day, a man identified himself as Mr Moyo Favor, a UK diplomat working with Skggocs.com said the similar thing but this time I have to raise 7, 000 GBP in which he can help out to start clearing the parcel by Thurs 18/2, 9am if I can deposit a 3, 500 GBP and the other partial will be paid upon point of delivery. He even asked me to meet him in UK High Comm, Jalan Ampang, KL!!
By then I already discussed with my family and we decided to lodge a police report on this scam! So I guess we ladies and girls have to go back to "safe and convention" way to find our true love... do not trust anything online from now on...
