BE YOURSELF NOT SOMEONE ELSE

I’m glad to report that I’ve blocked a significant number of profiles that misused the “Service Request” and "web-enquiry" function (I'm used to get fishy emails)

A common pattern I’ve observed individuals (some with misleading intentions) is a tendency to avoid presenting their true identity. Instead, they often project fabricated backgrounds, foreign affiliations, or positions that are difficult to verify and, in many cases, do not exist.

From a behavioural perspective, this reflects a few psychological tendencies. First is impression management, where individuals deliberately construct a more “desirable self” to gain trust or authority. Second is the online disinhibition effect, where anonymity reduces accountability and makes deception easier. There is also an element of identity insecurity, where some may feel their real background is not “enough,” leading them to adopt alternative personas. Finally, it often ties to social validation seeking, where perceived status is used as a shortcut to earn credibility.

Some people may disagree with me but I don't really give a "damn"


For my part, I am Nik Zafri, originally from Kelantan, born in modest circumstances in Machang. I have worked steadily to reach where I am today. I am not a wealthy person (not yet), but I value sincerity, clarity, and authenticity in people real connections rather than polished narratives behind unclear identities. I am confident in what I do, and I prefer to engage with those who are straightforward and genuine.
