QuickCheck: Have scammers set up fake Bank Negara websites?


WHEN it comes to financial advice on investments, most experts advise folk to check with Bank Negara to see if the latest investment scheme or product is legitimate. However, in this day and age where typing in a URL has taken a back seat to tapping a link on a website or search engine, many might not know what Bank Negara's actual website address is. Apparently, some scammers have taken advantage of this and set up fake websites that mimic that of Malaysia's central bank.
