Phishing scams soaring?
Don’t take the bait, take action instead!
Protect yourself! Learn how scammers operate. If you receive a call or text from an unknown person asking for financial details, get smart, don’t tell!
Easy work for super high pay?
It’s a scam!
Don’t be lured into receiving unsolicited job offers via social media that require you to make payment to purchase items in advance with the promise of receiving high commission pay-out. It’s a SCAM!

SPOT the SIGNS and PROTECT yourself.
Stay calm and DO NOT fall
prey to Macau Scam!
Pause before making any hasty decisions. If you receive a threatening call from someone who claims to be a police officer or from a government body, chances are that the call is a Macau Scam!
Beware of lucrative offers requesting to use your banking accounts
Fraudsters will reach out to you by offering lucrative commissions to use your account. Do not GIVE, RENT or SELL your bank account or ATM card to anyone. Mule Account holders can be prosecuted under Malaysian Law.
Be vigilant and do not fall prey to Mule Account scams.
