(17) Scam of Rumah Nur Iman

When I started Youth of Hope Malaysia Twitter page on April 25th 2012, its all about spreading the informative discussion/matter on what are our activities/suggestions/ideas throughout the year. Our first main event, Charity Garage Sales raised up to RM1,560 (Alhamdullilah!) and managed to continue the next event which is Futsal Cup - A Competition Among Orphanages. Both has been our success projects despite the bumpy mistakes we've made. All of us are still learning and adapting to the life meaning of an orphan, contribution of youth to the society and task we could manage to pursue in order to make life a better living. 

You can never help all, but if you have the time, save one.

One day, I overlooked to one Twitter page name 'Rumah Nur Iman' asking for donations up to RM800,000 from every celebrities he/she could ever think of. It was all over YOHMY Timeline where those celebrities Retweets the status for donations. Knowing how 'generous' Malaysians are, without even bothering to do research and asked on the profile of the validity of the case donation hence fell for it and actually bank in some amount of money to the unfortunate living.

Knowing that I've been doing my research on few orphanages, I ran into Rumah Nur Iman website, blogspot (public), news, and googled search it every way possible. It was a total different orphanage Rumah Nur Iman (located at Danau Kota) / Rumah Nurul Iman (Manjoi, Perak) and I was aware that this house has suffered the flood incident, please read http://asrama-nurul-iman.blogspot.com/ but the fact that the twitter profile used a complete different date on the flood and mislead everyone on the amount of donations, orphanages information (which they used the name Rumah Nur Iman but uses the flood case from different orphanage), and most importantly its a scam! Used an orphanage name without the permission of the owner and may Allah have Mercy on you (complete selfish person)

And Alhamdulilah, it was indeed a scam and fraud as the profile has been deleted once I asked help from : Adibah Noor and Hazrey.

And this weekend, 19th and 20th January 2013 insyaALLAH we (YOHMY) will be having our trip to Taiping, Perak to increase our knowledge, information and trying to do a different thing this weekend. We'll be visiting Rumah Nurul Iman (refer to case above) and acknowledge our research and validity on the social medias cases. Hope it'll be a great trip with Allah's Guidance and Rahmat InsyaALLAH.. 

Tak sabarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr nak jenguk mereka di sana!!
