QuickCheck: Is a bogus unclaimed money portal phishing unsuspecting users?


IT is said that scammers have targeted the Accountant-General’s Department (JANM) in phishing attempts. Is the claim true?

Verdict:

TRUE

The Accountant-General’s Department (JANM) has warned the public about potential online scams. The department's Computer and Incident Response Team (CSIRT) has identified a fake website masquerading as the eGUMIS system portal.

The website, accessible at the URL - https://telegroup.my.id/jawatanmalaysiaterkini-tdr - has been confirmed as a phishing attempt to deceive individuals.

The public must exercise utmost caution and remain vigilant while navigating online platforms, said the department.

JANM advises against visiting the fraudulent URL. Instead, individuals are urged to use the official and authentic website for Unclaimed Money (WTD) dealings.

For secure and legitimate access to the eGUMIS system, visit the official website at: https://egumis.anm.gov.my/.
