A r/malaysians post says the poster contacted a woman through Locanto, moved the chat to WhatsApp, and was told to meet at a hotel. Someone claiming to be her agent then asked for a payment, followed by additional 'security money'. The poster describes anxiety and asks others whether this is a scam and how similar cases turned out. No location, dates, amounts, platform names beyond Locanto and WhatsApp, or police report are stated. Distinct from the open investment-scam topic: different scheme and victim.
