Do banks will block wire transfer from FXCM? if block what will you do? any suggestion?

As far as I know bank negara only blocks transfer if you're suspected to do money laundering.
Under amla, frequent transactions or transactions above a certain amount need to be reported.
The best thing to do is to notify your bank that you're expecting a transaction. At most in my experience, just need to fill up a form.
Bottomline is: don't try to evade tax and don't be so secretive about your money. These are big boy games. Normal people like us just report and pay tax for piece of mind.

recently there has been some rumours about people unable to get their money because bank negara block the transaction.
some organizations kena blacklist one. Retail forex brokers are notorious for it.
But like I said, just fill in a form with the banks. declare your money and source. Then no problem liao.
Guys,... to circumvent the above issues legally, please open a bank account in a foreign country - an account which allows you to control the movement of funds via internet. Transfer your proceeds from any of your brokers overseas into that foreign account and then transfer from that foreign account back to your local bank account.
It is not illegal to transfer from, say a forex broker into that foreign bank account in accordance with the laws of that country.
Then your proceeds from your foreign bank account transferring into a Msian bank account would be clear since it's coming from a bank account overseas under your name, and NOT from a forex broker's bank account.
Just an opinion,.... seeing so many issues here. Hope this helps.
