Dear Customer, we want you to understand that out top most concern is to serve you better. We want you to understand that this is an international transaction and the sum od RM38.00 cannot be received by you because it was insufficient to be approved by our data base and it's the World Bank Organization Policy. The least amount that can be approved starts from RM500.00. We are sending you this message because we have already deducted an additional RM462.00 from your buyer's account (Automatically) so that it could reach the limit of transfer.

Therefore, we advice you to REFUND the balance of RM462.00 back by transfering the money to our Bank Agents account in Malaysia and send us the copy of the receipt for verification before we will unlock the RM500.00 into your account immediatey.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Being the fact that the Buyer has specified that the transfer is meant for an item he purchased from you through an online market place, so the money is now only on PENDING until we are able to confirm the transaction is legit, and to ensure that our International Wire Transfer Service has not been used for any form of Money Laundering service.

As a Genuine seller, we want you to make the payment back within the hour and email us the payment details for verification and confirmation.

Please also post the full account details of the account that you were asked to transfer money to and the email address that the scammer is using.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.

The email i received is [email protected]

And this is the account I was asked to refund into. The thing is, I gave my buyers my Public Bank acc no. but why am I required to refund into a maybank acc instead? Is that possible? She also keeps asking me whether do i really understand what to do and etc like what happened to the other person (based on the link u sent)

Do not refund anything - ignore any further emails from them. As you've been told, it is a scam. The email is not from the bank and they've deposited nothing in your account.

Do not reply to any further emails, do not tell them you know it's a scam and do not tell them you reported them.

====================================
PLEASE DO NOT TELL A SCAMMER HE IS REPORTED HERE!
