Maybank Account Holder .. Please Read...

Whoever has the Maybank account number with ATM card, please be careful when withdrawing money through ATM machine,

1. For the first time when you enter the right pin number, a message "invalid pin number" pops up.

2. Then, when you enter your pin number for the second time, a message "invalid pin number, please call this number "xxx-xxxx" pops up.

3. If you call this number, you will lose all your money.

NOTE : if you encounter the above matter, please DO NOT call the number. One of my friends just lost RM 700.00 on last Sunday and Maybank checked his last transaction was on that day itself even though he did not withdraw any money. Please forward this to your friends.

Credit Card Scam All Team Members

Credit Card Scams hitting the USA, and starting in Australia, so we will be next.
This one is ‘Pretty slick Scam’, since they provide YOU with all the information, except the one piece they want.

WARNING - New Credit Card Scam
Note, the callers do not ask for your card number; they already have it… it’s the security 3-digit PIN number unique to only your
card, at the back of your credit card they need, to MAX your card on-line

This information is worth reading. By understanding how the VISA & MasterCard Telephone Credit Card Scam works, you'll be better prepared to protect yourself.

If you get scammed and you give them your 3-digit PIN number, and then guess who pays for the huge bill----YOU DO!
The scam works like this person calling says, "This is (name), and I'm calling from the Security and Fraud Department at VISA.

My Badge number is 12460 your card has been flagged for an unusual purchase pattern, and I'm calling to verify. This would be on your VISA card, which was issued by (name of bank).

Did you purchase an Anti-Telemarketing Device for (example) $497-99 from a Marketing company based in Sydney?" When you say "No", the caller continues with, "Then we will be issuing a credit to your account. This is a company we have been watching and the charges range from $297 to $497, just under the $500 purchase pattern that flags most cards.

Before your next statement, the credit will be sent to(gives you your address), is that correct?" You say "yes". The caller continues - "I will be starting a Fraud investigation. If you have any questions, you should call the 1-800 number listed on the back of your card (1-800-VISA) and ask for Security.
You will need to refer to this Control Number. The caller then gives you a 6-digit number. "Do you need me to read it again?"

Here's the IMPORTANT part on how the s cam works.The caller then says, "I need to verify you are in possession of your card". He'll ask you to "turn your card over and look for some numbers".
There are 7 numbers; the first 4 are part of your card number; the next 3 are the security numbers that verify you are the possessor of the card.

These are the numbers you sometimes use to make Internet purchases to prove you have the card.
The caller will ask you to read the 3 numbers to him.

After you tell the caller the 3 numbers, he'll say, "That is correct, I just needed to verify that the card has not been lost or stolen, and that you still have your card.
Do you have any other questions?" After you say No, the caller then thanks you and states, "Don't; hesitate to call back if you do", and hangs up.
You actually say very little, and they never ask for or tell you the Card number.

The REAL VISA Security Department has advised that this scam, will only take about 15 minutes before they begin to ‘Max’ out your credit card’

WARNING- What the scammers want is the 3-digit PIN number on the back of the card.
Don't give it to them the 3-digit PIN on the back of your card AT ANY COST!
Instead, tell them you'll call VISA or Master card directly for verification of their conversation.

The real VISA would never ask for anything on the card, as they already know the information since they issued the card!

If you give the scammers your 3 Digit PIN Number, you think you're receiving a credit.

However, by the time you get your statement you'll see charges for purchases you didn't make, and by then it's almost too lateand/or more difficult to actually file a fraud report.
If you think you have been scammed FILE a Police report, as instructed by VISA.
The police said they are taking several of these reports daily!

They also urged us to tell everybody we know that this scam is happening.
