Crime
All right, this is not much of a crime but still...

Me dad recieved a call, saying that someone had applied for a credit card under his name and spenbt up to 6000 dollars.  The caller identified himself as a bank staff from Bank YY. You could imagine how shock my dad was. My dad wanted to contact the bank negera (national bank). The man then offered to link him to the National Bank's line. My dad was, as you see, was lazy to go out at the middle of the noon to KL, so he said yes. A malay man voice was heard next on the phone line. The man asked him whether he got Bank XX credit card and the account number and so on. My father answered all his questions. Then, my father said it would be better if he just go to the HQ at KL. The malay man then replied that it would be a waste of time. To this point, my father became suspicious as the goverment's staff would, CERTAINLY not speak as such. He then asked the position of the man in the bank negara. He came up with an answer easily. Then, my father hung up. After calling my mother and telling her about EVERYTHING, my mom said 3 words, annoyed, "You've been fooled." 

    So, my dad had to deactivate his credit card. So, beware of the bank caller and no matter what, don't tell them you're account number!
