IPOH: The Perak police chief himself has been an attempted target of an online scam syndicate.

Comm Datuk Mior Faridalathrash Wahid said he received a call one recent Saturday from the “Inland Revenue Board”.

“In fact, the caller even told me that they operated on Sundays as well,” he told a press conference after a dialogue session with representatives of banking institutions at the police air unit training base here on Thursday . He advised the public not to answer unknown calls, and even if they did answer, not to prolong the conversation.“For instance, even if the police call, they would ask you to come to a certain police station for an investigation,” he added.

He said this was done to ensure that those present for prayers would relay the message to their family and friends back home.
