To my knowledge in bank negara regulations forex trading in malaysia is illegeal. However i've been approached by introducer brokers who claim that it is legal as long as you put your money overseas.

Any input guys

forex trading in malaysia is not illegal, however it is only applicable to banks and licensed money changer. however, another type of forex 'trading' which is the speculation on forex is illegal in malaysia. therefore you can not see any FOREX broker in malaysia like what u see in aus or singapore where everyday we can trade or gamble smile.gif those that you are seeing in malaysia are all operate overseas, they are agent of these overseas operated website... just like online gambling, its illegal in malaysia but they have agents or ad in malaysia to 'introduce' you these online gambling website.

since its operation is located outside malaysia, if you got scam by these website you are unable to sue them in malaysia or ask help from BNM.

So far my TT no issue...  biggrin.gif ... no guessing work can or can not... i have done it already.

If still worried... just use credit card to fund the account... easy!

Had a couple of failed CC via maybank so decided not to use it anymore. Also curious how can you receive 63k tt without query from maybank. I have a couple of friends who got call directly from maybank if the TT amount is too high. These days anti money laundering policy is tight. Better becareful cause BNM and LHDN have access to all historical bank transactions.

however, if you make any profit and would like to withdraw the amount, will BNM come and find you?

Depends on amount and luck. BNM monitors on Banks and the Banks monitor on you. Maybe you can try AMbank becoz some1 gets tru with Ambank 700mil USD aka 2.6bil RM.

Which broker u use? I'm using XM (trading Point Financial Instrument)... TT for deposit and withdrawal so far no issue. No single call from Maybank.

I notice u use Skrill... i use it too... can withdraw to Maybank too... no hassle transaction. Maybe i try use your broker and see... biggrin.gif Give me the broker name.

anyone can declare they earn a million bucks, but can you prove it via tax filing? do show your lhdn borang
a reminder, it is a federal offense punishable by jail if you do not pay your taxes in malaysia

also u cant do transfers over 10k without inquiry from the bank. u can check with any banks in malaysia, local or foreign.

banks in eu is worst, more regulations

Guys,
I have no issues receiving foreign TT to my Maybank acct. However, it has not come through to my RHB account.  Are there banks that reject incoming fx funds?
