KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 22 — The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission blocked 1.8 billion scam calls from 2017 to last year, said Communications and Digital Minister Fahmi Fadzil.
Fahmi said he was informed about the matter during his meeting with the National Anti-Financial Crime Centre together with MCMC and several other parties.“Please be careful during this festive season there will definitely be those who will take advantage of the situation,” he told reporters after attending the Chinese New Year Open House organised by MCA here today.
Fahmi also advised people who had fallen prey to scams to call the National Scam Response Centre at 997 to make a report so that immediate action can be taken and to prevent them from losing money. — Bernama
