A COUPLE once divorced because the wife had an affair with an African man. However, they later reconciled and re-married.

But to the husband’s dismay, his wife had not learnt her lesson for she had taken another African lover, he told Harian Metro.

The husband, who gave his name as Johan, said he found out about his wife’s first affair just a few days before Hari Raya last year.

“Initially, I did not suspect anything. But I began to see she was keeping her distance from me and our five children,” he said.

Johan claimed she was always sendingSMSes to someone and, often, she would be in a remorseful mood.

When he confronted her, she did not deny her romantic link with an African student of a private college in Nilai. Their marriage crashed.

However, after the student returned to his country, the woman asked for a second chance and the couple, both in their 40s, got married again last June.

But barely three months after re-married, the woman allegedly took another African lover, a businessman and a friend of the first Awang Hitam (a term used by the Malay media for African Casanovas).

Johan said his wife’s infatuation with African men drove her to pawn her jewellery to support them.

He has made three police reports against his wife’s second African lover.

> In another report, Harian Metro said five youngsters – aged 15 to 18 – had a night of orgy at a hotel in Keningau and were caught high on drugs by anti-vice enforcers on Friday night.

Among the group caught in the 11am raid was a 15-year-old girl.

Police seized an undisclosed amount of powdered substance, believed to be syabu. Two youths tested positive for drugs.

Keningau district police chief Deputy Supt Zahari Mahamad said all the boys were school-leavers while the girl had just finished her PMR examination.

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.

The news copied here is self explanatory. I pray none of the people I love ever succumb to these unscrupulous men out to clean one's purse. 

200 cheated of RM10mil by Africans claiming to be college boys

KUALA LUMPUR: At least 200 people in the city have been conned of nearly RM10mil since early last year by Africans who entered the country on student visas, but never once stepped into a classroom.

Although these so-called “students” are enrolled in top colleges under fake scholarships, they are more often spotted cruising in flashy cars and frequenting nightspots.

These Africans are believed to be conmen who plied their shady trade overseas before dumping their ill-gotten gains in local banks and “settling down” here.

However, once here, they continue their activities by duping Malaysians of their life savings, using bank accounts of locals to cheat their victims, who are mostly single successful women, either divorced or widowed.

Among the most common scams are tricking Malaysians into paying for non-existent gifts, buying coloured water as “vaccines” to keep cattle healthy and disease-free, and “black money” cases.

City Commercial Crime Investigation Department chief Asst Comm Izany Abdul Ghany, who revealed this, said it was alarming that despite numerous warnings, Malay sians continued to fall into the conmen’s trap.

He said scams operated by Africans topped the list of commercial crime cases in the city, reeling in the largest amount of ill-gotten money.

the list of commercial crime cases in the city, reeling in the largest amount of ill-gotten money.

“The numbers are rising. Between January last year and June, locals in the city alone were cheated of nearly RM10mil, and the figure could be higher because some victims are still unaware that they are being conned.

“The scams are committed throughout the country but the exchange of money usually takes place in the city,” ACP Izany said, adding that over 100 women and 80 men were conned since early last year.

ACP Izany said checks showed that these Africans had committed similar scams in other countries before coming to Malaysia.

“After these syndicates are busted, they enter Malaysia by using fake scholarships apparently given by their country of origin,” he said.

He added that many of the women conned would freely give up their money after being swept off their feet by Africans who lured them with sweet talk and promises.

“The conmen target single women in their 30s and 40s. The victims include doctors and university lecturers,” he said, urging higher learning institutions and relevant agencies to scrutinise carefully the applications of foreign students.

Federal Commercial Crime Investigation Department’s Cyber and Multimedia Investigation Division assistant director ACP Mohd Kamarudin Md Din said in some cases, the victims had met the conmen through social networking websites. They would usually post pictures of other people, sometimes of famous models, just to get closer to the victims.

Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Khaled Nordin said there was a “small number” of foreign students involved in crime here, most of whom had entered the country illegally.

He urged the police to provide the ministry with relevant information so that appropriate action could be taken.

Internet Love Scam: drug mule

Another story of 'greedy opportunist'.

With all the news published in papers, this college girl never read any of them I bet.

My own children never read anything. My students only read questions, not the notes.

That leaves old lady like me perusing news and blogs.

Sighhhhhhhh
 KUALA LUMPUR: The polytechnic student who went missing with an African man for more than two months has been located – she was caught at the Haikou airport in China as a suspected drug smuggler.

Investigations revealed that Christina Luke Niju, 22, had arrived in Hainan on April 29 and had been issued a visa until July 29.

On Wednesday, her distraught parents had sought help from MCA Public Services and Complaints Department head Datuk Michael Chong to find their daughter after she failed to return home.

Chong said Christina, a Kuching Polytechnic student, was arrested on June 29 and had since been detained at the Hainan detention centre in Guangzhou.

She is still being investigated. When the process is done, we can arrange for the parents to see her in China,” Chong told a press conference here yesterday.

He said Christina’s was one of the 10 cases over the last year involving Malaysians being used as drug mules to China.

He said seven of them had been sentenced to between 15 years and life imprisonment in various parts of China while the trial of one woman was pending. He added that a Malaysian man had been executed.

He said all these cases involved African men who conned their victims into becoming drug mules.

“I believe this trend is becoming very serious and I will brief MCA leaders about these cases so that this issue can be raised in the Cabinet,” said Chong.

On April 28, Christina had told a roommate that she would be going on a business trip to China with an African man named James.

Her parents lodged a missing person’s report with the police in Sandakan, who then passed the information to the Kuching police.

They sought Chong’s help after all attempts failed.

He said police also seized 13 laptops and RM42, 979 in the raids, which were conducted following complaints by the victims.

"Members of the syndicate preyed on career women who are in their 40s and lonely, befriending them via social networking sites on the Internet, the Star Online quoted ACP Rohaimi as saying.

"They would profess their love for the women and as proof of their affection, promised them jewellery and other gifts.

"The women would then receive telephone calls that they had to make some payment for the release of the parcels containing their gifts from the Customs Department," he added. (ANI)

Victim of an American stalker advises women

By C. MEKALAH
newsdesk@thestar.com.my

KUALA LUMPUR: She met the American expatriate only once 12 years ago, but ever since that encounter she has been stalked by him.

A chartered secretary, the woman who wanted to be known as Madam May, 43, met the man in 1998 at a talentime held in the factory where he worked.

In October 1998, he started to call her and send vulgar messages and pornographic pictures of other women.

Since September 2009, the man has been using various mobile numbers from Malaysia, Singapore, and the United States to contact her.

“I have no interest in him but he still sends messages and pornographic pictures to my phone,” she said at a press conference organised by MCA Public Services and Complaints Department head Datuk Michael Chong here yesterday.

“I never had any affair with him and I do not understand why he keeps bothering me when he knows I am a married woman.

“I decided to go to the media because I feel threatened and fear my life could be in danger,” added May.

She said the American sent her a message yesterday, saying “How’s the little devil today, love always.”

She said she has not responded to even one of his numerous messages and has made a total of four police reports since November 2009.

“To all the women out there, please be cautious of men like this,” Chong advised.
