Scams get smarter (Poll Inside)


KUALA LUMPUR: They used to pose as government officers “investigating” a criminal case but now, cyberscammers have evolved to become insurance payment collectors, “cheap” baju raya sellers, or even those who offer cash prizes.

Victims will receive calls demanding “overdue” payments on hospital insurance and, in a state of fear and confusion, will be coaxed into wiring funds into bank accounts provided by the con artists.

Play, subscribe and stand a chance to win prizes worth over RM39,000! T&C applies.
