Internet Love Scam - Again

Just for the record.

This is a compiled news I found on Star.


A Nigerian student, impersonating as an American widower, promised to marry a 45-year-old Filipina after several online encounters.
Making false promises that raised her hopes, he persuaded her to come to Malaysia last December.
The woman’s dream, however, was shattered when she arrived in the country and was taken to a house in Petaling Jaya, where she was locked up for several days.
Early this week, the Shah Alam High Court sentenced Oparaugo Uchenna Samuel, 27, to three years’ jail for confining the woman against her will.
Kosmo!, which dubbed the private college student as a “Nigerian Casanova”, said his local girlfriend, Nurul Atika Baharuddin, 21, was jailed three years for not reporting the matter to the authorities despite knowing about it.
Another local friend of the Nigerian, Khairun Azhan Mohammed Aziddin, 25, was sentenced to six months in prison for also not reporting about Samuel’s treatment of the woman.
