BEWARE: Blackmailed after sex

IT SEEMED almost too good to be true. Ben (not his real name) was pleasantly surprised when he logged on to Facebook on Feb 1 and found that an attractive young woman wanted to be his friend.


But he admitted that he felt suspicious at first.


Ben told The New Paper (TNP) on Tuesday: "I asked her, 'Do I know you?' and she told me that she had just randomly chosen me to be her Facebook friend.


"She also told me that she did so after spotting my profile on another friend's page."

Beware Of ‘You Have Won A Free Gift’

KUALA LUMPUR – Do you remember the ‘scratch-and-win’ ploy used by unscrupulous businesses to hoodwink members of the public to buy certain products they do not really need?

The same ploy has since ‘resurfaced’, but this time it uses short messaging service (sms).

Recently when on his way to work, a medical practitioner who wished to be known as Dr Krishnan, received an sms reading “Congratulations, you have won a free gift. To redeem please sms this number…..”.
