    Embassy or cops. I'd say the Embassy though

    AH reply: Delete her as a friend on FB, problem solved!

    Tell her to contact her family.

    Embassy is the best call i'd say, has she been on to the police over there yet. They should advise her on the best move.

    If you give me this, I can sort the money out for her.

    Make sure it's not a scam – plenty of folks get their FB hacked and suddenly begging emails are sent everywhere.

    A European girl would make a relative fortune in the sex trade... Tell her to sell herself.

    Poor girl, same thing happened me except i was just left with a credit card, ended up just buy tradition Cambodian clothes and pretended i was a local.

    Cancel credit cards, forward her money western union or else buy her a plane ticket home. Guest houses only make you pay at the end of your stay

    How is she online? Does she have her phone or money for an internet cafe? Tell her to Google the closest Embassy. Was she travelling alone or staying with friends in a hostel?

    Cant imagine anyone going to cambodia on their own on a holiday. Sounds like the kind of girl who grabs the banana instead of the knife.

    Local Embassy for sure. You dont wanna be stuck in cambodia on your own too long let me tell ya. You need to hire a bodyguard going to cambodia I know many people who went. If you dont have a bodyguard the locals will rob you. It's a seriously poverty stricken and dangerous place to be.

    Get her onto the embassy and fast.

    Be honest though, nothing happened you because you hired a bodyguard to travel with you.
