SCAM ALERT!! For those who's looking for job in Phnom Penh, beware of this guy.

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.

You claim this man has not paid you your salary.

Do you have evidence or information to support your claim that shows he owes you money?
I have screenshots of my communications with him via whatsapp. I will upload those here for people to see if he owes me money or not.

Her evidence of scamming is no worse than that against Jewsbury, Whitlow, Scallan, the late Shitty Plaits, etc.
Yeah, he's obviously a scumbag. Fucking brizzies, Eh?

Are you happy to be named and your picture published?

Sorry if that does not satisfy you. But please give me enlightenment, What kind of evidence do you want to see? If you get scam by people, what kind of evidence would you give? because I think the screenshots will tell that he owes me money and I've tried to resolve my situation, I gave my efforts and what was his response.

Here are your screenshots uploaded for you, and I'll also add them to your first post to add more context to it:

I don’t, but my viewpoint is largely the same.

The initial post is a bit rambling, and long winded. There is purportedly evidence, now, being proposed by a second person.
That evidence hadn’t been provided at all, when surely it should be very easy.

The only evidence provided initially were-
A few photos which demonstrate nothing nor prove any dishonesty.
2 unrelated news articles that name the subject, one of which is from a very long time before (appears to be an archive of old news), one regarding a failed business.
And
2 news articles relating to something completely different (I only skim read, but saw no reference to the named person at all)

But the Damning evidence has only now been presented. Not really the best way to establish any credibility.

is the poster foreign or local?
i dont understand how foreigners move to a country like cambodia to work (where the salaries are barely enough to scrape by) and not have at least some sort of savings as a safety net for rent and food,

btw not making excuses regarding employers not paying staff, id be equally pissed off, and unfortunately its something ive heard numerous times here before
