100% scam.

There is no visa.

There is only a scammer trying to steal your hard-earned money.

The next email was from one of the scammer's fake names and free email addresses pretending to be the "government visa official" or "travel agent" and has demanded you pay, in cash, via Western Union or moneygram.

The scammer has said that you "send" money to yourself and then send a scan of the receipt to the scammer as proof you have the funds. The scammer will simply that take scanned receipt or just the MTCN# (money transfer number) into Western Union or moneygram and pick up the cash you thought you were sending to a friend or yourself and then the scammer will disappear forever with your cash.

Western Union and moneygram do not verify anything on the form the sender fills out, not the name, not the street address, not the country, not even the gender of the receiver, it all means absolutely nothing. The clerk will not bother to check ID and will simply hand off your cash to whomever walks in the door with the MTCN# and question/answer. Neither company will tell the sender who picked up the cash, at what store location or even in what country your money walked out the door. Neither company has any kind of refund policy, money sent is money gone forever.

Now that you have responded to a scammer, you are on his 'potential sucker' list, he will try again to separate you from your cash. He will send you more emails from his other free email addresses using another of his fake names with all kinds of stories of visa applications, lottery winnings, millions in the bank and desperate, lonely, sexy singles. He will sell your email address to all his scamming buddies who will also send you dozens of fake emails all with the exact same goal, you sending them your cash via Western Union or moneygram.

You could post up the email address and the emails themselves that the scammer is using, it will help make your post more googlable for other suspicious potential victims to find when looking for information.

Do you know how to check the header of a received email? If not, you could google for information. Being able to read the header to determine the geographic location an email originated from will help you weed out the most obvious scams and scammers. Then delete and block that scammer. Don't bother to tell him that you know he is a scammer, it isn't worth your effort. He has one job in life, convincing victims to send him their hard-earned cash.

Whenever suspicious or just plain curious, google everything, website addresses, names used, companies mentioned, phone numbers given, all email addresses, even sentences from the emails as you might be unpleasantly surprised at what you find already posted online. You can also post/ask here and every scam-warner-anti-fraud-busting site you can find before taking a chance and losing money to a scammer.

6 "Rules to follow" to avoid most fake jobs:
1) Job asks you to use your personal bank account and/or open a new one.
2) Job asks you to print/mail/cash a check or money order.
3) Job asks you to use Western Union or moneygram in any capacity.
4) Job asks you to accept packages and re-ship them on to anyone.
5) Job asks you to pay visas, travel fees via Western Union or moneygram.
6) Job asks you to sign up for a credit reporting or identity verification site.

Avoiding all jobs that mention any of the above listed 'red flags' and you will miss nearly all fake jobs. Only scammers ask you to do any of the above. No. Exceptions. Ever. For any reason.

100$ SCAM

1 - There is NO sort of requirement to show funds available
2 - There is NO deposit required for any sort of visa to Malaysia
3 - NO legitimate company or government agency will EVER ask for Western Union payments for any reason
4 - the US$ is NOT legal tender in Malaysia. No Malaysian lawyer or government agency is going to ask for anything in US $
5 - there is NO such thing as a Tier 2 visa for Malaysia. The visa categories for Foreign Workers are:
Key Post, Executive Post or Non-Executive Post or Foreign Domestic Helper
http://www.imi.gov.my/index.php/en/expatriate
This site gives ALL the details and requirements for applying for a work visa to Malaysia - it's the official Malaysian Immigration website
OR you can contact the Malaysian embassy in the Philippines who will confirm in a single phone call that you have been scammed

This is a scam - you send the receipt in your name, the scammer has already created a fake ID in your name and their photo and within 30 minutes of you sending that receipt, they have walked into any Western Union office, showed the fake ID in your name, and took that $2000

If you have sent these criminals any money or a copy of your passport you need to contact your local police and national passport office right away as you are the victim of fraud and identity theft
