If you have been the victim of a scam and want to report it to law enforcement authorities in Malaysia, there are several resources available to you.
One option is to contact the commercial crimes division of the Royal Malaysian Police (CCID) through their WhatsApp hotline at 013-2111222. This allows you to easily report the scam and provide any relevant information to the authorities.
If you suspect that a bank account or phone number is being used for illegal activities such as money laundering or fraud, you can use the Royal Malaysia Police SemakMule website to conduct investigations. This resource is a valuable tool in identifying and reporting suspicious activity.
Additionally, there is now a scam hotline report number 997 that is connected to Bank Negara, the central bank of Malaysia. This number allows you to report any scams or fraudulent activity related to financial institutions.
It is important to be aware of scam calls claiming to be from the police, as these are often fraudulent attempts to obtain personal information or money. The Royal Malaysia Police has issued a statement warning the public that they do not investigate crimes over the phone. If you receive such a call, it is best to hang up and report it to the authorities through the appropriate channels.
