HELP urgently neededReader comment on item: Advice to Non-Muslim Women against Marrying Muslim Men Submitted by Louise (United Kingdom), Jul 11, 2016 at 17:41 Can anyone help me I am writing to see if there is anyone who can help my friend get her money back, here is her story.... She has been with Ali Akkus for a year. They met in Icmeler last August and spent 10 days together. When she flew home she thought she would not hear from him again but in October he started to message her through Facebook. She was dubious at first but they talked every day and messaged all day too. As time went on, he told her in January that he was not going back to do bar work again because he needed to change his life and wanted to be with her in England. He was working all day and night every day for his Uncle's electrical firm - Akkus Elektrik. I believe he is still there. She knew how difficult this was to get a Visa for the UK but he assured her that he has lots of cousins here married to British woman. She even spoke through Facebook to 1 of his cousins. Everything seemed in order. He never asked her for money until about 3 months ago. He needed £100 for a door in his apartment he was building...sent her pictures. She was very reluctant but sent it because she trusted him. She had spoken to his mother on the phone only to say hi, he said they were all very happy for him and wanted him to be happy in England. They planned to spend a week together in half term, May 2016 so that she could transfer money into is account while she was there so he could apply for a Visa... she stupidly went along with this, they were in his friends bar - Melita Bar in Icmeler, Casper Tekce runs it - on the computer to do the transfer. She believed they all knew what was happening and that she was 'safe' in doing so. The money came out of her account 2 days later and she had a phone call from her bank to verify the request... She said yes, it's a loan for a few days... Ali Akkus said to her that as soon as it showed in his account he could apply for a Visa...then he said it needs to be there for a while to prove he has money to come here to support himself whilst he is here. She was going to transfer £10,000 originally but he said the more money he has to show the better the chances of getting a Visa and she really wanted this...so she transferred £20,000 very nervously. She told him she was uncomfortable doing it because it's her life and he kept reassuring her things were good. Aslo, because his friends were around she trusted him. He left her in Icmeler 2 days early saying his Grandmom had gone into hospital and was dying..he even told his friends this. He continued to talk to her each day for about 2 and a half weeks, telling her they will be together in July to transfer money back and to visit his family. Then, 2 weeks ago messages were few... she kept asking what was wrong, thought maybe his Grandmom had passed away... then she had a sudden sickening feeling... She sent a message saying "Have you stolen my money Ali?" he replied with a "?" so then she said "The £20,000" he replied with "You gona police for this" so she said "Have you stolen it?" then "Or is it till there?" he replied with "Tell me what u gona says to police" and then he blocked her from everything. Since then he has changed his phone number and she has since found out that he got married to a Kurdish girl called Devrim Kucukaslan about 2 months ago. She is totally heartbroken...feeling totally stupid and now very unsure of her future because of Ali Akkus. As you can imagine she is totally broke mentally and financially, she knows she has made a huge mistake but we don't know what to do, we have messaged police, the British embassy, does anyone else have any suggestions . Submitting....
