My guessed is in Maybank the transfer limit for a CFO according to SOP is US$1 million.
Hence she think she no wrong. The questions were does the SOP specify it need to be black & white in paper? or an email/WhatsApp/video call is sufficient proof as the required "Documentation/record"?

I think they need a better SOP as cybercrime have become more sophisticated.

Usd1m is only small amount for a bank.
CFO level has certain authority to execute without approval.

But if indeed the story is true that she got scammed this way, she still unfit for the post.

This article appears to be widely shared on LI and is a distilled summary of the weekend edge article

Thinking to buy a copy to read this later.

Could be more to this story

so maybank fired her for reasonable reason but this lady make hoohaa like its not my fault reeeeeeeeee

wtf

oh wow you still buy print editions....kek other day I looked at printed newspaper and realized ("WTF are the fonts so small now")...huhu

I read like a boomer liao. Paper far away but not too far

Also I asked my wife about this. She says this CFO is known professionally for being a strict no nonsense rafidah aziz type. Which makes it shocking also that she could fall for this or heck even orchestrate this

Note. She doesn't know her personally only professionally (her reputation that is) as banks are a major client for tax advisory services kek

salah zoom

Yes, KI is really proper no nonsense type. That's why I'm surprised.

But I bet you don't know the CEO really dislikes her and has been trying to get rid of her. Generally this kind of cases, at best you get a show cause or warning letter only.

They took this chance to sack her.

Plot twist ceo orchestrated this shit? Hahha

Later gonna buy the hard copy liao

plot twist ALvin Maybank SG CEO also in on this con , that's why no uncanny valley AI effect. phew Ai scam not that effective yet.

Don't think so la. The scam case is genuine, but 机不可失，失不再来 so he push for termination.

Second plot twist. The ktard that knows him supplied the spoofed numbers to call

The CFO is almost Boomer age (60). That day my Boomer relative asked me whether I saw the video of Trump and Zelensky punching each other in the White House?

2 years ago already got filter that allow you to livestream and look like Jackie Chan.

Also, webcam quality still sucks. Many webcams are still 720p. The small sensor will never be as good as a phone camera. Maybe she didn't notice the "uncanny valley" because bad webcam quality is normal to her.

But I don't know why she responded to unknown numbers?

yeah i also bought luxury bags in usd using jp morgan accounts.

last year Hong Kong firm got scammed $25mil from same MO, except it was more believable since the video was multiple people in the same room and familiar faces.

She saved the transaction at last minute also kena sack?

Saved the money
Open up case study for finance industry to learn at no cost.
Chance to review of internal SOP weakness amidst cybercrime advancement.

Maybank use zoom and not Teams

hehe
corporate governance is just for show and wayang

Yup, the real plot twist is the zoom and call is all valid not AI

The CEO n geng the one want to play her down

Pakai zoom? Tot use M/S Teams in MBB? CFO pon tak erti basic CyberSec protocol? Pakai home laptop-ke? Summore whatsapp..
