Internet Love Scam
I have a similar experience as another lady. The person who I spoke to was Daniel Cheung. 'He' was very caring and sweet. Every day, he would WhatsApp me day & night after asking me the contact him via Facebook messager. It's started 25 January 2019. Just a few days of communication, asking me to go to the next level of relationship. I told him I 'm not ready, and needed some time. Last week before Valentine's day. He told me he won a usd5mil contract.
He said that my prayers for him worked and he was so happy that he bought iPhone x, Mac, high heels, jewellery & cash 20k for me to spend. He showed me airway bill & photo of the items he bought. He asked me to pay for courier CHRG by using the cash he sent over. 10% would go to a charity and the rest for me to keep. Then, I received call from a courier located in Malaysia asking sgd2500 before they could make the delivery. They provided a Malaysian bank account. I went to the bank to do the transfer. The officer sensed something was not right. Advised me not to make any payment & the officer rejected my request. I told him about it. He said he will ask the courier for a local bank acct. An UOB savings bank acct was provided to me. I did an internet transfer to this UOB account as told. But they claimed the funds was not in. I called my bank & confirmed the funds is out frm my bank acct. They told me to send a screenshot of my bank acct. I'm careful to show them only the transactions Not my bank acct no. They provided me another bank acct, this time a Maybank account, and asked me to deposit cash in it. I was frustrated. I told them I won't be paying them, but they kept asking me to deposit cash now. I finally woke up & sensed something was not right. I called the bank & lucky for me, the previous UOB bank acct they provided was invalid acct & the funds have returned back to me.
I sent an lengthy WhatsApp message to Daniel and told him he was not the real person in what he wanted me to believe.
By the way, more details on "Daniel": he claimed to be born in Beijing but after his parents passed away, he was raised by an Uncle in USA He was widowed with a 15 year-old son. He owns two house cost abt 350k and 450k each. He works in the marine line as engineerer, and earns a lot. I have learnt alot from this experience and sincerely hope that others won't fall into the devious traps.
