QuickCheck: Are ‘unclaimed money’ links used to steal personal information?

In early 2000, the Accountant General's Department launched the Electronic Government Unclaimed Money Information System (eGumis), a website where the public may check if they are owed unclaimed money, and claim it.

According to Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan when he was deputy finance minister last year, as of October 2022, there was RM11.6bil in unclaimed money in the system.
