On 17 October 2018, the Police received a report from a 22-year-old man who informed that a large sum of money had been transferred from his bank account without his consent. He had earlier received a call from someone who informed that he had been linked to an alleged kidnapping incident.

The man was directed to two separate phishing websites, where he was instructed to key in his bank account details at each of the webpage, and download a software which allowed the computer to be accessed remotely. The man later found out that $49,500 had been transferred from his bank account without his consent. Investigations are ongoing.

In recent events, there is a high amount of phishing websites and emails circulating around the internet.

This website’s have targeted audience to steal credentials such as banks,email and even Singpass. The amount of people that are not IT savvy and fall victim into phony websites like this are on the rise.

What is Phishing?

Fake websites or email that try to imitate just like the real one’s and cheat users into logging in personal information.

Reposting from Lee Wen Lin:

I would like to bring to your attention a scam incident that happened to me in KLCC today ☹

1. An anxious pregnant Indian lady approached me at the lift in KLCC and said she was robbed in the car park and her stomach was really in pain (she said she was bleeding inside, and was about to deliver).

2. I borrowed her my phone so that she could call her husband and also emergency 999. She called, with hands shaking and tears rolling. She said her husband is not picking up – must be flying a plane now (he is a pilot). According to her, 999 replied her that she need to go to hospital on a private car. She was shivering and weeping, saying no one is helping her, including the KLCC security.

3. I voluntered to help her call a Grab to nearby hospital. She said she need to go to Subang Jaya Medical Centre because thats her laboring hospital. Other hospital or clinic wont accept her.

4. I wanted to order a GrabCar and use GrabPay but she insisted on using GrabTaxi with cash payment method because leather seats will not get stained by her blood on her clothes.

5. Before boarding the taxi, she asked for some money to cover her expenses. The Grab app estimated between RM50-RM80 so I gave her RM120 out of goodwill.

6. Within five minutes after the taxi left, the journey ended. The taxi cost is just RM1, looking at the grab receipt that i got.

7. Looking back at my call logs, I realized 999 never actually answered her call. She was actually pretending to talk over the phone.

I suspect that this may be a new modus operandi that is used by taxi drivers and pregnant lady to con people.

Beware of pregnant lady asking for money. I should have brought her to the security office or asked for help from nearby crowd or called 999 myself. 😣

Suria KLCC #Grab

Note: 3 of my team members encountered the same incident. One gave money to help her as she claimed she was robbed in front of Bank Islam Jalan Perak and even took her to Police Station. But 2 ignored her. Pls be careful. She loiters around KLCC and KL Convention. Same story husband is a pilot yada yada yada modus operandi: pregnant+bleeding+wants to borrow phone to call husband who is a pilot+husband is flying so not reachable+need some cash to hail taxi.
KLCC concierge now can assist to call Grab if you need one just like some malls who offer the same service.
