BANK Negara Malaysia (BNM) has warned the public about scammers posing as the central bank through fake websites and malicious applications, aiming to steal personal and banking information.
In a post on social media today, BNM stated: "A website that appears official is not necessarily authentic."
“Beware of scammers posing as BNM through fake websites and malicious applications, which are used to steal your personal and banking information,” the central bank advised.
BNM urges the public to remain vigilant and to verify any suspicious information via its official verification portal.
“Always stay alert! Check any suspicious information at bnm.gov.my/sahkan,” it stated. – November 6, 2026
