A netizen shared how his maid is refusing to believe that she is being scammed and insists that her “lover” is going to send her millions of dollars.
Here is the story:
“Hey guys,
So the scam had not happened yet. But my helper is very insistent that her Caucasian lover is sending her millions worth of cash and jewelry and wants to pay $5000 to ‘retrieve’ it from customs.
I guess due to the nature of being a domestic helper, she is very unaware of scams and it is very difficult to explain to her given her grasp of English.
We have tried explaining that no cash exist and the photos are all fake etc., But she is rather convinced that it’s true.
We’re thinking of bringing her to the police but I’m not sure if they’re of any help. Does the police have Indonesian speakers or resources available to provide counselling?”
