Everyone please block this phone number on your phone. +67682222
My parent who work in office nearly kena scam called by these Macau Scam Syndicates via Office Telephone Line.

Fortunately the phone call is stopped by parent's colleague.
So far only leaked out my parent's name and phone number only, didn't ask for IC. sweat.gif

Basically, the operation works like this, you pick up your landed phone, robotic voice saying from TM, ask you press '9', then send to TM Customer Support Staff, they give your their fake "personal info" and "report ID", then suddenly direct to some Inspector in Seremban Police Station.
Then need to remain in silent room where no other people is around for audio recording as evidence, where they ask you for your personal mobile phone, where the details of the scam begins there.
If you cut their line, they will harass and spam call you.

Basically, I googled this number, mostly targetted by Chinese Malaysian Community hmm.gif
+67682222 - Scammer Syndicate
+06-7682222 - Seems like legit Seremban Police Hotline Phone Number http://www.mpsns.gov.my/ms/pelawat/balai-polis

My colleague accompanied my parent to report to Balai Polis, but celaka balai polis staff don't want to write a record and go back.
Well hopefully my parent's info won't be breached any time soon.

Most recent incident happened in October 28, 2019 in KL Blowwater Group

Report to Police, Police don't even want to log the incident.
I don't think this will even bring forward to MCMC.

Can put any number they want?

They technically used a legit Malaysian Police Station Number, and remove the front "0" sweat.gif

Just want to say, relieved to find your post although I am already pretty sure its a scam.

Stupid jobless useless scammer pushed my mom on the phone until she cried and waste 2 hours on the phone. Good thing my mom not too old yet.

Edit: Still using the same number though. It should be very obvious when +67 some foreign numbers call you.

Well hope it helps you. Slot of people are susceptible by this scams.
Just tell parents by wary who are they answering to calls.
