Like what you said, it might be a insider job.

Just some tips about handling all this kind of Tele-marketing calls from the banks, under the new credit card guidelines for marketing practices that Banks should allow the cardholder to opt out for all kinds of telemarketing activities eventhough when u sign the applicaition it say the banks have the right to refer your detail to their business related vendor.

Secondly there is a timeframe for all this kind of call to the customer. it must between 9am till 9pm ONLY. no more no less.

Ya. I had a missed call from this number.
Luckily, I do check the number from web first. Else wastes my money 'cos I'm oversea.

Now I practice not to pick up call that not in my phone book while I'm out of country.

Today i received a call from this number 0196233864 claiming they from Zest Malaysia Sdn Bhd and saying ive been chosen to get a discount card for free and blablabla and asking my credit card number. Luckily I realised earlier that they are lying, and i started toying around with the caller and told him all false information of my profile and my credit no and we were talking about 30 minutes untull he realised it and was mad at me coz i wasted his time. Haha.

received a call (2 weeks ago) from similar number 0322977700, but from Maybank, she want to do some research..
said that I'm busy and asked her to call again and she did.. but, i just ignored the call...

wah, those guys doing research for so many banks ar Either way, yah, better don't waste your time talking to them as they are not from the banks.

My experience with fraud. I posted it in the wrong thread.
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...40&p=42792869&#

Thank you Bro @milentechie.

Your contribution will hopefully help a lot of people who read this thread.

I recently applied for Maybank 2 Card. On the second day after i received SMS confirmation on the approval of my card, I received a call from this number 0162627650. The lady told me she called to check if I have received my CC via pos laju as they posted it 2 days ago. She also took the opportunity to "educate" me that my new CC must be activated before use. I was working so I told her that I have not received the card and if it was sent to my house that day, then I do not know the status. The call ended.

After I received the card, I call to Maybank hotline for activation and been using the card for 1 week until yesterday. I received the call again. Again, she asked me if I have received the card. She claimed she was calling on behalf of Maybank to check my status. I told her I have already activated my card last week. Then she proceed to said that because of my Maybank 2 card, i am entitle for another card, pay 1 time fee and free for life.

The name of the card is Kad Celebriti which will entitle me for hotel, flight ticket discount, free car towing service, insurance and many other things. The fee I need to pay is ONLY RM499. I sensed something is not right so I asked her if this card is a product of Maybank. Now, she hesitated and answered NO. I told her I will call her back if I am interested which I am not.

The thing here is that, she seems to know so much on my application and approval of my card. She also know the type of card, my age, etc.

This is definately insider's job. Selling our private info to third party.

my experience with Wawasan Takaful:

a call was made by a fixed line number (i don't remember but from selangor with prefix 03) to my hp

skip the long intro>>>


-call ended-

realizing that I have been cheated, I call the Maybank hotline right away to cancel my card. I also filed a fraud case report to them telling my card info had been compromised. Following that, my card was cancelled by the bank but yet it is still charged under new card. I call Maybank again and they are investigating this matter. I also called Wawasan Takaful (WT) to cancel my subscription telling that their agent is persuading me to subscribe to the insurance policy in the wrong way. At first they were hesitating and try con me that this cannot be cancelled as the charge has been made. Then I went furious over the phone and they will cancel the subscription. And I told them I had lodged a report to Maybank telling their company is trying to fraud me. Just now I received call from WT telling that my subscription had been cancelled and the charged will be credited back into my account.

So guys, lesson learnt from here is never give any information for verification or 'pengesahan' or confirmation before you know that you want their service. In the simplest word, never give any information or subscribe to any service via phone. Thank you.

A good lesson indeed. As for my case, at first the caller (spoke to me in Malay) asked for my card expiry date. I see no harm letting him know since the caller was helping to stop an authorized transaction.

But, I became suspicious when he asked for my card no. next. From that point, I started questioning him to verify the authenticity of his identity. He was getting fed up and threatened to let the transaction went through if I didn''t co-operate with him. I told him off. If he did that, I will complain to BNM. Then, he hung up.

One question playing on my mind now is how he could have got my full name and mobile number information? Who leaked it to him?

insider's job~ I wish those dishonest bank staffs will rot in hell for selling customer's information~

hi i'm new here. can someone please check this number for me? 0125278353. just got one call from a male, claiming he's from some blablabla (didn't hear it well). he said i was chosen for two special cards from tourism ministry (heh?) because i used my maybank debit card. he asked about my occupation, age (i just layan and answered those questions) and when he asked for my card expiry date, i got suspicous. at that point i know it was a scam. what really made me mad is how he get my name, phone number, and i have a maybank debit card (i just used it once).
