Police do not investigate crimes over the phone

Scammers have been known to use various tactics to deceive people into giving away their personal information or money. One common scam that has been reported in Malaysia involves scammers posing as the Royal Malaysian Police (RMP) and calling people for investigations. However, the RMP has reiterated that they do not conduct investigations over the phone and do not call people for such purposes.

This is an important reminder for the public to be wary of calls from individuals claiming to be from the RMP. Such calls should be treated with suspicion, especially if the caller requests personal information or asks for money. It is important to note that the RMP conducts investigations through official channels and would not use phone calls as a means of contacting individuals.

In addition to being vigilant, individuals can also take steps to protect themselves from such scams. This includes not sharing personal information over the phone, verifying the identity of the caller before sharing any information, and reporting suspicious calls to the authorities. It is also recommended to avoid giving out personal information to anyone who is not trusted or who cannot verify their identity.

Overall, it is important for the public to remain aware of the tactics used by scammers and to take steps to protect themselves from falling victim to such scams. The RMP's reiteration that they do not conduct investigations over the phone should serve as a reminder to always be cautious and to verify the identity of callers before sharing any information.
