BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, Dec. 14 (Xinhua) -- Bank Islam Brunei Darussalam (BIBD), the largest bank in the sultanate, urges the public to be vigilant against website scams, local media reported.
According to the local daily Borneo Bulletin, recent reports indicate that individuals are being redirected to a fake website masquerading as the Malaysian Immigration Department's Malaysia Digital Arrival Card (MDAC) official platform.
The BIBD warns that these fraudulent websites may appear legitimate at first glance, mimicking the design and layout of genuine government websites, and are intended to steal personal information, such as login credentials, passport details, and even request payments, the media reported.
Brunei is a Southeast Asian country that borders Malaysia on Borneo Island. The sultanate has a high level of income and social welfare. ■
