Awas sekiranya tuan/puan menerima e-mail dari orang yang tuan/puan kenali atau sahabat handai yang meminta bantuan kewangan kerana terkandas di luar negara dan sangat memerlukan wang untuk biaya hotel dan tambang balik ke Malaysia. Berkemungkinan besar ia adalah satu penipuan.
Untuk makluman, PPDNHEP Selangor telah menyiasat satu aduan berhubung dengan e-mail yang dihantar oleh
kononnya seorang rakyat Malaysia yang telah terkandas (stranded) di London semasa berurusan di sana kerana dompet berisi wang, kad kredit dan barangan berharga lain telah kecurian di London. Setelah siasatan dibuat didapati perkara tersebut tidak berlaku dan orang berkenaan (En Ismail bin Abdul Aziz) tidak pernah ke London pada masa kejadian.
Sisatan lanjut dengan beliau mendapati e-mailnya telah dipecah (hacked) oleh hacker yang berniat jahat. Penjenayah tersebut menggunakan e-mail address beliau dan menghantar e-mail kepada orang-orang yang tersenarai dalam mailing list beliau, dengan harapan mereka mempercayainya dan menghantarkan wang tersebut kepadanya di London. Jika wang itu dihantar, ia akan menjadi milik penjenayah tersebut.
Oleh itu berhati-hatilah. sila rujuk e-mail berkenaan untuk makluman tuan.
