If you are not quite familiar, GCG Asia Travel Cambodia founder was inspired to build his blog website due to his past traumatic scam experience. With his plan and official announcement to launch the GCG Asia Malaysia project, he has also decided to launch the GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative. 

The GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative, as its name suggests, will be based in Malaysia. It is basically a programme that educates our visitors on how to avoid scams. GCG Asia founder and CEO, Mr.Visal felt that this was necessary because of his personal experience. 

“It took me a long time to get over the fact that I was a victim of a scam. I literally lost everything and had to start once again from scratch. Imagine working hard your whole life, and saving up money to enjoy the fruits of your labour but it all goes to vain. All the years of hard work snatched away in one second.”

This is why I founded GCG ASIA TRAVEL CAMBODIA and I’m looking forward to the launch of GCG ASIA MALAYSIA where the GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative can educate people on how to tell what a scam is and what is not. To be completely and utterly honest, I never thought it would happen to me. 

I would also like the GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative to incorporate and include investment skills to our guests and clients and educate them on the importance of having assets if not at least one. I realised this was very important when I got scammed. Despite losing the money in my bank card, I still owned two houses. One that I lived in and the other that I put up for rent. I was able to stay afloat for a long period of time while I figured out what my next move was. 

It was also not smart of me to keep all my money in one bank account but the truth is I thought I was educated enough on scammers and their ways that this was the last thing I expected would happen to me,”said Mr Visal on his reasons for launching the GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative. 

GCG Asia Scam Malaysia prevents travel fraud in Malaysia 

Despite wanting to curb travel scams and fraud on a larger scale and protect many individuals we can only start from where it hits home as we aim to spread the news broadly to larger borders. We want our guests and clientele to understand that the GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative is not only to encourage them to use our official website that will serve their travel needs. 

We have an even greater mission which is ensuring that they do not have to worry about being scammed while they arrange their travelling plans and lose everything all because of a desired vacation. We want them to feel safe. We want to cater to their needs and most importantly, make them feel as though they are home away from home. Even with being aware, it is still easy to fall victim to a scam. I strongly believe in the GCG Asia Scam Malaysia and feel that it was the right move to launch such an initiative. The thing is, many of us believe that as long as we know the trends these fraudsters use to carry out their scams, being alert at all times and avoiding unfortunate situations. However that is not the case. This is because these scammers come up with new ways each and every day to steal other people’s hard earned money. 

A recent trend has been discovered where scammers put up fake car hire sites in order for victims to compromise their personal information. As soon as we found this out, we decided to provide personal car hire services for our visitors. But you see, at the end of the day there is only so much a company like GCG can do. This is why the GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative is very important. The GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative will raise awareness on such incidents to protect our guests at all costs. Guests will also be able to register for updates from the GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative in order to keep up with the latest trends the scammers will be using so that they can avoid these fraudsters and being scammed like a plague. 

“I am certain that our visitors will benefit from the GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative. This is mainly because the GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative is the first of its kind. I say and ask this in the most humble way but have you ever heard of any travel agencies or resorts that cater to educating their guests and are launched specifically for their visitors and people in general not to become victims of a scam? While we seek to promote luxury and comfort, the GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative will be a new and unique experience for Malaysia and once the word spreads it will also benefit the tourism industry in Asia,” Mr. Visal mentioned. 

Famed for the spirit of an Asian market the GCG Asia Scam Malaysia initiative seminars will be held in an open area setting once again considering the current times and global outbreak. We will definitely make sure safety measures are in place while creating a beautiful ambience for learning, vacationing and networking.
