No lah. A recently graduated salesman went to her office and kept asking my mom to sign up for 4 different credit cards from him. One each from Public Bank, Alliance Bank, AmBank and Hong Leong Bank. The Hong Leong bank credit card really gives us a big headache. My mom got soft and applied all cards from him
