They wanted to steal me for facebook

in #scammers7 years ago

Although it gives me some pity, for falling into this type of scams, I have decided to tell so that no one passes the same and be very attentive with who they talk on Facebook.

My story

In November of last year I met a man on Facebook, we spent weeks talking through this medium until he asked for my phone number. After that we talked every day about whatsapp and he sent me photos, he gave me to understand that he was of Asian nationality, specifically Korean.

After a month and a half talking lovingly, he tells me to send some gifts to my country, through the English embassy because his work was in England. He sent me a picture of the packed suitcase and a number that was according to the registration code.

After three days, I received a strange call that, because it was too late, I did not attend. Later, that person called me telling me that the suitcase was in Malaysia and that I had to pay $ 1,500 to be released and that it would come to my hands. I knew I explained that I did not have the money to pay for that. That if he were an entrepreneur and he was sending me expensive gifts he should pay for the suitcase.

A week later, he tells me that the transport company sent him an email to have his suitcase taken away. Reason why he had to pay that money, or at least a part, and then pay the rest. He did not understand why he should pay, if he said he was a millionaire man.

We had an argument, since he told me that I should make the sacrifice of paying for the suitcase since he had spent a lot of money on the gifts. I told him that this means of transport did not appear on the internet and that he could not verify the registration code, that he had no money to pay that amount, that he paid what he had to pay to have his suitcase returned, that I did not want anything .

After a while I did not know more about him, or the suitcase, his facebook account had been closed and his international number was no longer attended.

Facebook is a social network that lends itself to all types of scams. We must be aware of each step we take. I could have lost a lot of money for believing in a deconocido. Thank God I do not happen to be a scare anymore.
