I’ve been a loyal Lazada user for over 11 years, and this is the first time I’ve encountered something like this.

I recently purchased a washing machine on Lazada from a seller offering free shipping. Although the seller had no product reviews, I decided to proceed cautiously. I contacted both Lazada and the seller to verify the product’s authenticity. The seller assured me that the washing machine was original, sealed, and covered by a 1-year local manufacturer warranty, so I placed the order.

However, just a few hours later, my order was suddenly cancelled. I received an email stating it was due to “incorrect pricing.” Shortly after, I received a WhatsApp message from someone claiming to be from Lazada, asking me to make a payment to a Lazada bank account so they could deliver the washing machine the next day. I refused.

Before I rejected the message, they sent me my personal information via WhatsApp — including my full name, address, and phone number, to confirm if the billing and shipping details were correct.

Now, I’m genuinely concerned that our personal information may have been leaked to scammers. Could this pose a risk? Should I make a police report?

Lazada oredi say don't make any transactions out of Lazada app.

If salah pricing, usually seller will just message you n ask you to cancel order, won't ask to make payment outside of app.

As long as you never pay money. No problem.

If you scared just contact Lazada. If really got problem, report polis.

Also... Don't do deals outside of thee platform la. How much are you saving? Might as well just pay that little bit extra for the peace of mind.

Don't be penny wise pound foolish. Kan dah tak boleh tidur lena...

They obtained your full personal information from the order you made earlier with the print out slip that is generated by Lazada for delivery.

Rest assured your important IC and payment info like your payment card details info is still safe and not exposed. What the seller can see is your contact info and address only.

But in future, beware of call scams because your contact number has probably been recorded to be sold to black market...

When you make the payment the transaction is only between you and Lazada, only when you confirm you have received the item then only Lazada will release the payment to the seller via their own system. The seller cannot see your sensitive banking details and full account information such as your IC.

As for your full name, contact info number and address, that one is probably leaked or recorded by the seller since they need to print the delivery slip to ship out your parcel.

Your contact number is shown on the delivery sticker for the deliveryman to contact you just in case no one is available at the address to receive the item.

Do not make any payment. Report to Lazada and to police as prevention.

luckily u didnt transfer from your bank account to their bank account, if not few days later some 'ahlong' will transfer some money to your bank account then accuse u of making a loan with them, and ask u to pay back the money + crazy interests, then since they got your address they will send some macai to throw molotov into your house to scare you to pay them, many cases already

Oh..so lazada share ur hp number to seller? For shopee, seller only can see name and address, can't see hp number. Anyway, don't entertain seller that have no rating, there are too many scammers out there. They're fishing for people who have no time to request refund. Just buy from local especially something expensive and require warranty

many shit seller punya, random shit shop can get lazmall status also, they want to boost sales, dont care about customer safety punya.

don't link your card, don't link tng, any other payment methods all don't save. remember to check the saved payments method to make sure it is empty.
