Unmasking scammers with the help of Semakmule
KUALA LUMPUR: Use the Semakmule portal to verify and check the list of mule bank accounts, phone numbers, and shell companies used by scammers, says Comm Datuk Seri Ramli Mohamed Yoosuf.

The Bukit Aman Commercial Crime Investigation Department (CCID) director said the portal was established in 2020 to list phone numbers and mule bank accounts, but it had since been improved to list the names of shell companies.

Comm Ramli said users are able to do searches on companies that might be involved in commercial crimes, especially scams.

“It will assist users in deciding whether to proceed with a particular transaction or not.

“The portal has listed 107 companies so far,” he said.

The Semakmule portal has so far also listed 193,000 mule accounts and 164,000 phone numbers used by scammers.

“Some 24.9 million visitors have logged in to the portal, and about 1.9 million of the searches have been positive, meaning transactions to mule accounts were prevented,” he said.

Comm Ramli hoped that the public would be able to fully utilise the improved Semakmule portal to prevent being victims of scams.

“We will never relent in enforcement efforts against scam syndicates, but we hope the public can play its part by staying vigilant.

“One of the ways to be careful is to check and verify bank accounts, companies and phone numbers using the Semakmule portal,” he said.
