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 as banks are a major client for tax advisory services kek

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.

Not really, I had an interview with her in 2018 for the post of Cyber Sec Lead before. Doesnโ€™t seem much between the ears, like a political appointee or someoneโ€™s mistress type. She was even late for the interview that she changed time twice. I wanted to leave but her PA asked me to stay (quite hot awek). Long story short, I rejected the offer of 12k and a BMW 5 series.

Bro, if you wanna kencing also pandai2 la.

Maybank no longer offer company cars. I helped to draft the policy paper, more than 10 years ago.

I was looking for better cash offer than current salary of 20k. 3 years later joined the green lanyard for double more than wat tiger bank cud offer.

Some new details from The Edge's full article:

"According to the show cause letter, at 1.16pm, the Lee impersonator asked Khalijah via WhatsApp about Maybank's bank balance, to which she responded that, "Maybank's balance is in the billions!".

Full article is out. The CFO is really sweat.gif

QUOTE
Shortly after, she received a text message from another number which she believed to be the personal number of Maybankโ€™s president and group CEO. But this was an imposter who mentioned that they (the people posing as Khairussaleh and Lee) were working on a confidential project, on which the details would be provided via the Zoom call.

Khalijah says she received another text message from yet another Malaysian number (01139560619), which she again believed to belong to Khairussaleh, using another line for the confidential project to be discussed.


Firstly, you don't have the number of your boss? You "believe" it belonged to him?

QUOTE
At 4.45pm, she received information that the payment of US$985,426 had been successfully routed to the agent bank, JP Morgan, for processing. At 6.28pm, she was informed that JP Morgan had put the payment on hold due to sanction screening.

Khalijah then attempted to call the Lee impersonator, but he did not answer. Instead, he sent a message saying he was in a meeting with the bankโ€™s lawyers and reiterated that communication should be via WhatsApp messages.

An update to the Khairussaleh impersonator received the response and instruction to ensure that the payment goes through. He reiterated the need to communicate via WhatsApp to avoid insider information leaking out.


Insider information will leak out if its a call, but will be safe if its in Whatsapp? What kind of sohainess?

QUOTE
From 8.06pm to 9.15pm, Khalijah was in communication with a JP Morgan executive, and she grew suspicious when the screening took longer than expected.


So, it was JP Morgan that stopped it because they found it suspicious. But the CFO said.

QUOTE
She says she had acted decisively and swiftly to ensure that the bankโ€™s interests were fully protected, and that the incident did not result in any financial loss to the bank. โ€œThe show cause letter presents a selective and incomplete account of the events surrounding the incident.โ€
4pm she sent the money - then 6pm it was stopped - but she didn't felt anything was wrong until almost 10pm, but say she acted swiftly.

QUOTE
She also said she wanted to inform Khairussaleh of the April 24, 2024, incident in January 2025 at a one-on-one performance appraisal with him. However, the session was rescheduled to Feb 5.


Kek, it didn't occur to her to inform her boss someone was using his name to attempt to scam the company on the same day - but waited more than 7 months to do so in a one-to-one? You are the CFO, wouldn't you see the CEO weekly if not daily??

This is the level of GLC top management?
