first 019 number reported

Too bad you can't give the number.

Bro, mind to elaborate further.

Above is "scary". how the hell they know (1) your phone number, (2) what cards you have and (3) your MBB cards number but not the expiry date???? Report from CCRIS or info from Maybank application data?

I just posted the number you mentioned in first post as B.5.a. Note B.4 and B.5 the numbers are in series with yours. So if anyone get call from 016262765x be careful.

why need to lie? Just tell then you're not interested or you don't have to answer the call.

interesting, we now have people impersonating as police officers besides claiming they are from the banks or BNM. Ok, will post at first post.

If you read the thread, the number ID that was shown in his phone really belongs to the Skudai police station!!??

ask them if they are from Visa or MasterCard? Can be both. No lah, just joking. Ignore the call and don't release any info.

updated 1st post.

cipsmor: good point on the RM499. Maybe that amount won't make the card centre that is monitoring fraud charges to be suspicious?

kezman, they did say where they from? And what did the guy said?

make a police report?

If it is a debit card, you can go check balance or call Customer Service (for both Credit and Debit Card) and see what they can do.

what you mean block your card? In Lord_darkslide case, the call said some one used his name to apply card.

if it is a debit card and there no money in the account, I guess there's nothing worry as far as money is concerned. But I think you should call CS and report and block the card or cancel the card. Luckily your brother told you in time before any damage was done.

Read item E.1 1st page. No "police" call you ar?

this time the got HLB number right :scary: nowadays cannot be sure if calls are genuine or not.

Bro, I already posted it at 1st page before you even posted above.

But sometimes I wonder what is the point of me updating the 1st post when Seniors fellow credit card users like you don't even read it or read other poeple's post here.

Yah lah, you not the first person received such calls, several members reported same case as yours in last 2 pages. Even got actual police station number. And from the very first case posted in this thread (item E.1), highlighted by Human Nature the post at kopitiam, those who read it would know it is Caller ID Spoofing and would not be surprise if they receive a call that shows a genuine number.

And I agree that it must be highlighted that your case showed a genuine number from HLB; AND if you had read the first post before you posted, I did mention this. My point is, how many Senior here actually read this thread regularly.

The number mentioned above 03-27720300 is almost similar to the 03-27727300 reported in item A.7 and A.7a.

Did you just missed your chance to win the Audi
