I think can make complaint at RHB, and they will give you the necessary info. And better to have police report first, if not dont think the bank will entertain.

make police report, make ur request with IO, IO can bring that police report to request the details of the owner of the account at the bank.

u cant do it personally unless if u have connection.

bank need to strictly follow PDPA, thats why they can give the IC number to any individual.

I just kena scam. Lost RM22k.

Gonna take a while for me to rebuild from ground up. Lost everything after being terrorized from 10.30am till 4.30pm. On top of that in between I had my tyre punctured, then car battery/starter died.

Here's my report (I wrote it in Malay for the officer, then ChatGPT in English)

REPORT TYPED BY THE COMPLAINANT:

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 10:30 a.m., while I was at my home at random Kelana Jaya house I received a call from an individual named Mohd Amirul bin Iskandar, employee number (CS172101) from the Communications Restriction Unit (Unit Sekatan Bahagian Komunikasi) , phone number: 011-3618173.
He informed me that he had complete information about me, including my name, address, and personal phone number.

Also asked me to Google the balai polis branch number to verify that he's calling from a legitimate balai.

He stated that my phone number (010-fishme1) was involved in fraudulent activities related to job offers, stock investments, or government assistance. Then kept checking if I was part of any groups in Telegram or Whatsapp as they were the cause of my personal information leakage.

I think I started trusting him from there.

He then proceeded to add that if I did not cooperate/comply, he threatened that all phone numbers registered under my name would be blocked and blacklisted, and my bank accounts would also be frozen for a period of 2 years and 6 months. Sounded kinda annoying, so I paid attention.

He advised me to clarify my situation with the IPK Kuching unit through a sergeant named Sharma.
I was instructed to use statements such as the following:

"Here, I would like to make a denial report using the PDRM E-Report system that my phone number has been misused for scam activities from Kuching, Sarawak, from the date 15/4–24/4/2025, originating from PIN location 138, Lorong Setia Raja 4, Kampung Sungai Laru, 93350, Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia. I do not wish for my phone to be blocked or blacklisted by any telco company, and I understand that I may be charged under Section 420 of the Penal Code and face imprisonment of more than 10 years and a fine if convicted."

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 11:30 a.m., I was transferred to the line of Sergeant Sharma from IPK Sarawak, officer number RF 170029 apparently, where I made the report as advised.

Subsequently, I was instructed to pay attention to the number (+210) 08-224 0800, where all conversations were recorded, and I was advised to maintain the confidentiality of our conversations and prohibited from informing outsiders. He also kept cautioning me to refer to the bank rep as "Tuan" and that I had to treat him with respect.

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 12:00 p.m., I was transferred to another person’s line, who introduced himself as an officer from Bank Negara Malaysia.

He began a briefing with an application form for data verification and a brochure about PIDM. He explained that I needed to transfer my funds into a temporary savings account to verify that my account was not involved in fraudulent activities causing losses amounting to RM68,000. I felt something was off as I remembered reading that BNM will never ask for your money to be transferred out.

He instructed me to provide screenshots of the amounts in my Maybank, CIMB, Alliance, and Hong Leong accounts.
After that, I was asked to increase the daily maximum transfer limit for CIMB, Maybank, Hong Leong, and Alliance.

My banking services were interrupted multiple times somewhat, and he instructed me to go to the ATM/CDM machine to make manual transfer.

I was told to take my car and not to disconnect the call. I have been speaking to the same line since 10.30am mind you.

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 1:35 p.m., I went to CIMB HighPark Suite, Jalan SS 6/2 Kelana Jaya to create a new ATM card.
Afterwards, I exited the bank and made a cash transfer totaling RM5,200 through CIMB Clicks to a Bank Islam account, account number 0505 8024 2186 78, under the name Pavethera A/P Muniandy.
This information was given to me via WhatsApp message.

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 2:45 p.m., I re-entered the CIMB Bank to make another transfer via ATM totaling RM10,000 to an RHB Bank account.The account number ending in 15203700089800 was owned by Noor Fatin S. This time, the account number was given verbally and I could not remember the full account number.

After that, he instructed me to proceed to a Hong Leong branch to make another transfer from there.

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 3:41 p.m., he instructed me to transfer an amount of RM7,550 to an RHB Bank account ending with 1520 3700 0898 00, owned by Noor Fatin S., again using verbal instructions.

After completing the transfer, he informed me that I needed to wait for a decision from the Chief Auditor of Bank Negara Malaysia.
After that, his number could no longer be reached. And just like that RM22,750.00 went kaput and I'm that much further in debt.

Good job smartass me.

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 5:30 p.m., I lodged a complaint with CIMB under report number FM2504021974022 and with Hong Leong Bank under report number 2-783500793.

I've spoken to an Inspector that has dealt with this type of reports on a daily basis and he's let me down softly that the money is probably not gonna come back. Also if you talk about this to people, people'd just think you're just being a dumbass so best to keep it private unless it's someone you really trust.

It's irritating enough being gaslit by the police offers and etc. You don't need to go through that with others. Just share on this thread and spread awareness.

You may also check this reddit thread for similar stories. I'll update here if I ever win my money back.

Stay safe all.

Your story is .... interesting. Isn't this how this oldest scam has always been done?

I only wonder why you say the police gaslit you if you write that the inspector " let me down softly that the money is probably not gonna come back". What did you expect him to say? That you'll get your money back?

Best to remove your personal details so others reading this don't misuse it

I initially wanted to, but it's just my house address and my spare phone number. And cool fact here is that once people quote, it stays in their responses forever, so I sudah pasrah.

I just kena scam. Lost RM22k.

Gonna take a while for me to rebuild from ground up. Lost everything after being terrorized from 10.30am till 4.30pm. On top of that in between I had my tyre punctured, then car battery/starter died.

Here's my report (I wrote it in Malay for the officer, then ChatGPT in English)

REPORT TYPED BY THE COMPLAINANT:

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 10:30 a.m., while I was at my home at random Kelana Jaya house I received a call from an individual named Mohd Amirul bin Iskandar, employee number (CS172101) from the Communications Restriction Unit (Unit Sekatan Bahagian Komunikasi) , phone number: 011-3618173.
He informed me that he had complete information about me, including my name, address, and personal phone number.

Also asked me to Google the balai polis branch number to verify that he's calling from a legitimate balai.

He stated that my phone number (010-fishme1) was involved in fraudulent activities related to job offers, stock investments, or government assistance. Then kept checking if I was part of any groups in Telegram or Whatsapp as they were the cause of my personal information leakage.

I think I started trusting him from there.

He then proceeded to add that if I did not cooperate/comply, he threatened that all phone numbers registered under my name would be blocked and blacklisted, and my bank accounts would also be frozen for a period of 2 years and 6 months. Sounded kinda annoying, so I paid attention.

He advised me to clarify my situation with the IPK Kuching unit through a sergeant named Sharma.
I was instructed to use statements such as the following:

"Here, I would like to make a denial report using the PDRM E-Report system that my phone number has been misused for scam activities from Kuching, Sarawak, from the date 15/4–24/4/2025, originating from PIN location 138, Lorong Setia Raja 4, Kampung Sungai Laru, 93350, Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia. I do not wish for my phone to be blocked or blacklisted by any telco company, and I understand that I may be charged under Section 420 of the Penal Code and face imprisonment of more than 10 years and a fine if convicted."

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 11:30 a.m., I was transferred to the line of Sergeant Sharma from IPK Sarawak, officer number RF 170029 apparently, where I made the report as advised.

Subsequently, I was instructed to pay attention to the number (+210) 08-224 0800, where all conversations were recorded, and I was advised to maintain the confidentiality of our conversations and prohibited from informing outsiders. He also kept cautioning me to refer to the bank rep as "Tuan" and that I had to treat him with respect.

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 12:00 p.m., I was transferred to another person’s line, who introduced himself as an officer from Bank Negara Malaysia.

He began a briefing with an application form for data verification and a brochure about PIDM. He explained that I needed to transfer my funds into a temporary savings account to verify that my account was not involved in fraudulent activities causing losses amounting to RM68,000. I felt something was off as I remembered reading that BNM will never ask for your money to be transferred out.

He instructed me to provide screenshots of the amounts in my Maybank, CIMB, Alliance, and Hong Leong accounts.
After that, I was asked to increase the daily maximum transfer limit for CIMB, Maybank, Hong Leong, and Alliance.

My banking services were interrupted multiple times somewhat, and he instructed me to go to the ATM/CDM machine to make manual transfer.

I was told to take my car and not to disconnect the call. I have been speaking to the same line since 10.30am mind you.

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 1:35 p.m., I went to CIMB HighPark Suite, Jalan SS 6/2 Kelana Jaya to create a new ATM card.
Afterwards, I exited the bank and made a cash transfer totaling RM5,200 through CIMB Clicks to a Bank Islam account, account number 0505 8024 2186 78, under the name Pavethera A/P Muniandy.
This information was given to me via WhatsApp message.

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 2:45 p.m., I re-entered the CIMB Bank to make another transfer via ATM totaling RM10,000 to an RHB Bank account.The account number ending in 15203700089800 was owned by Noor Fatin S. This time, the account number was given verbally and I could not remember the full account number.

After that, he instructed me to proceed to a Hong Leong branch to make another transfer from there.

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 3:41 p.m., he instructed me to transfer an amount of RM7,550 to an RHB Bank account ending with 1520 3700 0898 00, owned by Noor Fatin S., again using verbal instructions.

After completing the transfer, he informed me that I needed to wait for a decision from the Chief Auditor of Bank Negara Malaysia.
After that, his number could no longer be reached. And just like that RM22,750.00 went kaput and I'm that much further in debt.

Good job smartass me.

On 25/04/2025 at approximately 5:30 p.m., I lodged a complaint with CIMB under report number FM2504021974022 and with Hong Leong Bank under report number 2-783500793.

I've spoken to an Inspector that has dealt with this type of reports on  a daily basis and he's let me down softly that the money is probably not gonna come back. Also if you talk about this to people, people'd just think you're just being a dumbass so best to keep it private unless it's someone you really trust.

It's irritating enough being gaslit by the police offers and etc. You don't need to go through that with others. Just share on this thread and spread awareness.

You may also check this reddit thread for similar stories. I'll update here if I ever win my money back.

Stay safe all.

Why la people so scared of the penguatkuasa (Polis, JPJ, SKMM etc)...

This blardy scammers are targetting those fellas who never have friends, family or encountered any of the uniform personnel above and can easily get scared....

Those uniform agencies, will never ever ever ask you to transfer money. If you committed serious crimes, they can just go to your house and arrest you directly.

Else, they will just call you and ask you to go to the nearest police station or whatever agencies to get your statement.

Your story is .... interesting. Isn't this how this oldest scam has always been done?

I only wonder why you say the police gaslit you if you write that the inspector " let me down softly that the money is probably not gonna come back". What  did you expect him to say? That you'll get your money back?

coz the people they call, so happen to be a dishonest or shady person

they prolly did something illegal or in grey area and then kena siapa makan cili dia rasa pedas

my friend almost kena, he runs a business and then when the scammers called they said something that made him think its legit coz he did indeed do some stuff that they claimed. its grey area coz run business ma, but when they start to ask for money then he snapped out of it and hang up

lots of msians here always want profit and they do lots of illegal or grey area stuff

they put money into stock investment for US stock market but they dont declare, then when the call comes saying they owe lhdn money then they feel like it might be true and they got caught

or they run business and well, you know every businessman sure got do some shady shit if not grey area then they feel like got caught too

if you're some random upstanding citizen that didnt break the law and shit, you got nothing to fear about coz u dont even know what are they talking about.

nowdays almost everyone has a skeleton in the closet, just need to see if the scammer managed to trigger the correct keyword or not

Something like that happened to me too. I got a call from someone pretending to be from LHDN, saying my company hadn't paid its taxes. Then, out of nowhere, they said my name was connected to a criminal in KL and told me to go to the police station. I was actually going to go to the police station to check it out while i am still on the phone – my plan was to report it right away if it turned out to be a scam. But my relative said it was a scam, so I didn't go. I think if they had asked me to do anything with money, I would have immediately known it was definitely a scam.

Yeap he did. It was a legit balai number.

They use phone numbers that look the same, but the prefix is actually different. They even asked me to Google the police station's phone number to check if their number matched, all to make me believe they were legit
