Scams

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Scams

Post by Nixon »

I just want to share a little internet scam that I stumbled upon...

This guy, who claims he is the Captain of Queen Mary 2, (cruise ship) offers visa, work permit and paid flights to the UK if one wants to work on his ship. Since he is talking to you that means you have been pre-approved for any position on the ship (who you are or what you do doesn’t seem to matter). Anyway, so to be able to get all the perks you just have to fill out the application and everything is set.

Behold the documents he provides 😂

He seems to aim for uneducated and poor people...

4) You are to pay a onetime payment fee of $500USD for your APPLICATION FORM in order to start processing immediately.
You will have to pay $250usd before getting the form
Did you pay $250 to get this form and $500 for your application form to start processing immediately?

Nobody paid nothing to anyone. After questioning the fee the Captain blocked the user. Everything was done on Whats App
