SIBU, May 5 — Deputy Communications and Digital Minister Teo Nie Ching has urged the public to be more vigilant to avoid falling victim to online scams.

“Last year, the losses caused by online scams in Malaysia were about RM850 million, while in Singapore, they were S$660 million. According to her, people easily fall victim to online scams because they lack understanding on ways to protect themselves and their privacy. “The issues faced on social media are the same throughout Malaysia; fake accounts, scams, people use our accounts, people use our photos; I can say that the issues faced are almost identical. So, we have to be very careful when we select what to post on social media,” she said.
