KUALA LUMPUR: Hair stylist Wong Yoke Fui, 26, dreads it when her handphone rings.
It’s not that she is anti-social: It’s just that she has been receiving more than 30 calls a day since July 23 from people wanting sexual services.
She is puzzled as to why someone had posted her number on the Internet.
"The men told me that an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) chat-room had posted my contact number and an offer of sexual services at RM30 per session," she said.
Wong, who is married, said some of the callers responded with vulgarities when she told them that she was a decent person.
"I don’t know who posted the messages and can’t think of anyone who would do this to me," she said.
Wong’s husband, who declined to be identified, pretended to be her and took down details of a frequent caller.
He lodged a report yesterday at the Shah Alam police station.
MCA Head of Public Services and Complaints Department, Datuk Michael Chong, said the department had identified the person and was co-operating with police on the matter.
Chong said he had come across seven cases of young women who had become victims of sexual harassment after their names and phone numbers were posted on the Internet.
"Most of these cases involved jilted ex-boyfriends or rejected men who want revenge," he said.
