Recently I keep on receiving calls from 011 number. Call regardless of time, sometime in the middle of the night, sometime early in in the morning. Previously was call until  pick up, but then never say anything. Until I got annoyed and asked a guy fren to answer, then the number stopped calling. Tat was two weeks ago. Yesterday started again, this time only play miss call. Ring two times, hang up. Anybody have experience of this?

I got the same call as well, hung up. I have never had an account with ambank before. Very obviously a scam.

Dear all, please DO NOT IGNORE to all the automated calls from all bank. Your respond is very important. This is what I encounter in 1 hour time.

At 10:14 Ambank 03 2176 3833 called me (again) and request my approval for a transaction at Rm 3xxx. This time I pressed 9. A banker answered. I clarified I don't even apply for Ambank credit card. Unfortunately he is helpless. All he can do is provide me information according to his bank system. He then advise me to call Jabatan Siasatan Card Palsu. MAKE SURE you note down all the information from the bank before you call bank Negara.

At 10:37 I have telephone conversation with a guy from Bank Negara. I gave all related information by Ambank to Bank Negara. The guy says 3 working days for investigation and will get back to me.

[Apologies if this is off topic for the thread. Please point me in the right direction.]

I received this SMS alert today from the 63660 number.

This is suspicious as I don't have a RHB card, nor was I at klia2. Besides, the fact that it says klia2 and not some specific shop triggered even more alarms.

I didn't call the number, but have checked to make sure there has been no suspicious activities with my actual credit cards from other banks.

Is this a some sort of scam?

yes, obviously a scam.

1) didn't mention the last 4 digit of your cc.
2) didn't mention the specific merchant name you transacted.
3) spelled the word "perform" wrongly.
