Saudi Arabian TV personality Lojain Omran was subjected to a failed attempt to cheat, when a car showroom sold a vehicle to her that did not correspond to the specifications she asked for so she refused it, but the showroom delayed in returning the amount.

The Dubai Police, represented by the Bur Dubai Police Station, intervened, and within a record time returned the full amount to Lojain Omran.

Lojain Omran said, “I thanked and appreciated the Dubai Police for their speedy response and resolution of the matter.”

Brigadier Abdullah Khadim Sorour, Director of Bur Dubai Police Station, renewed warning to members of the community against fraudulent methods in any way and phishing through social networking sites.

He stressed the need to be careful when dealing with strangers, and not to sign any documents until after making sure that things are available as mentioned.
