The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) revealed that 75.6% of Malaysians now use cashless payment methods in their daily transactions. While this trend shows positive acceptance of technology, it also opens up space for digital fraud that is increasingly cunning and difficult to detect.
In this regard, the public is advised to always be vigilant before making any transactions, especially when scanning QR codes. A thorough check of the recipient's information and payment platform is very important to avoid becoming a victim.
The public is also encouraged to identify online risks and act immediately if they suspect any suspicious activity. Any incidents should be reported to the authorities while further information can be obtained through the official channels provided.
This cakna attitude will not only protect themselves but also help combat cybercrime together.
