Beware of false job offers
Beware of false job offers
From Kompas
On July 20 I had a visitor who said he had been living in
Australia for 21 years. The visitor offered easy ways and means
to get work there, or to attend Australian schools. I discovered
later that I had been cheated.
This person usually preys on victims through classified
advertisements. He contacts advertisers and offers his assistance
in getting work, or, admittance into Australian schools.
He easily convinces people by mentioning an impressive number
of contacts, for example, the Rockhampton University (does it
really exist?).
To convince his victims even more, he makes use of a
facsimile. Perhaps there are more victims besides myself. Losses
could amount to the hundreds of thousands, or even in millions of
rupiah.
The impostor carries a Surabaya ID card and most of the time
speaks English.
He often uses names of Arabian and Indian origin, like M.
Najib, Haresh Kumar, Haris, or, Fahmi.
Folks, beware!
