Hacker gets RM 5k without any obstacles....

Until now there is no news about the hacker who cheated the e-banking user who accessed to phishing(fake) website dispite a lot of warnings given out about fake website thus, hacker got the RM5k transferred out from the victim.

Within an hour the hacker login the ebank account and transferred RM 5k to another account, the victim called the bank after 1 hour and asked the bank to cancel the transfer but instead the bank refused to do so. That's why I said the hacker gets the money without any obstacles....

In my opinion the bank could have freeze the accounts, and before you transfer the money you need to request SMS(random code given by bank) only then the hacker can successfully transfer the money, so the hacker must had changed the phone number and get the SMS himself, VOILA! He had successfully transferred the RM5k, that means the bank could trace the registered number under who's name(unless the bank has no record of the SMS sent). Besides that the bank could freeze the transferred account and find out who's the owner, usually is the hacker's account =) just my guess.

I say the hacker is pretty well checkmate himself by doing such things.....


I hope the bank will take the appropriate measure to help the victim and not just let it be....
