Bank negara, All bank & polis combine set up special department to check, suspend & catch all suspect

Lets say victim bank in to Bank A and scammer transfer from Bank A to Bank B, this special department after receiving report from victim can suspend the account from Bank A & B for 3 days for investigation

If the account been use as mule they can charge & detain the original account holder, the problem with bank is each different bank have their own policy regarding mule account and its alot of hassle for polis because they need to get approval / info from each different bank

JOHOR BARU: A government retiree allegedly lost RM3.07mil after being hoodwinked into joining a fraudulent online investment scheme.

The 62-year-old victim came across an advertisement on social media in July promising instant profits.

“The victim clicked a link and was connected to the suspect, who instructed her to download an app on her phone,” said Johor police chief Comm Datuk Ab Rahaman Arsad.

Comm Ab Rahaman said the victim was told that she could monitor her investments via the app.

Believing she could make a quick profit, the victim made 29 transfers amounting to RM3,070,433 into six different bank accounts between Aug 19 and Oct 15.

“The victim only realised she was cheated after the suspect became uncontactable and she was unable to withdraw her profits,” he said.

Comm Ab Rahaman said the victim lodged a police report on Oct 24, and the case is being investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating.

Some 154 million bank accounts cleaned, and $56.9 million in suspicious transactions blocked

October 06, 2025 | 14:40

https://en.vneconomy.vn/some-154-million-ba...ons-blocked.htm

The central bank’s Anti-Money Laundering Department, in cooperation with the Ministry of Public Security, scrubbed 154 million accounts and 36 million customer files from the national database on money laundering and terrorist financing.

The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) announced that it has cleaned up 154 million bank accounts and flagged nearly 300,000 customers for suspected fraud, blocking transactions worth a combined VND1.5 trillion ($56.9 million), according to report released by the Vietnam News Agency on October 6.

The bank’s Anti-Money Laundering Department, in cooperation with the Ministry of Public Security, scrubbed 154 million accounts and 36 million customer files from the national database on money laundering and terrorist financing. The National Credit Information Center (CIC) similarly cross-checked 57 million records, cleansing nearly 44.5 million customer files from its credit information database.

Director of the SBV’s Information Technology Department Le Hoang Chinh Quang was quoted by the news agency as saying that 57 banks and 39 intermediary institutions integrated biometric authentication into mobile banking platforms; and that more than 128.9 million personal accounts and 1.3 million corporate accounts were verified biometrically, or 100% of active digital banking users.

Over the past time, the central bank has identified some 600,000 accounts showing suspicious activity. Through collaboration with banks, authorities warned nearly 300,000 customers and blocked transactions totaling around VND1.5 trillion.

Deputy Director of the Anti-Money Laundering Department Nguyen Thi Minh Tho, as quoted by the news agency, said that the department is implementing the Government’s resolution on piloting crypto trading market, with four major missions of establishing anti-money laundering obligations for encrypted asset service providers; collecting, processing and transferring information about suspicious transactions; ensuring close coordination among the SBV, the Ministry of Finance, the State Securities Commission and the Ministry of Public Security; and fostering international cooperation to enhance anti-money laundering effectiveness.

The central bank is developing specific guidelines for financial institutions to provide related services while meeting legal requirements for combating money laundering, terrorist financing and financing of weapons of mass destruction proliferation, tailored to the characteristics of the encrypted asset market.

Scammers paying rm200-300 for every account you open for them. For some people, that's a lot of money.
Should start throwing jail term for those selling the accounts and you'll see this stop right away. sweat.gif sweat.gif
They can't get away with it because the account name is tied to them.
