BNM and PDRM Investigate G-Gold Gallery

SCAM: G-Gold Quest Sdn Bhd


Another Get Rich Quick Scheme Malaysian-style.

I will be attending an Anti Money Laundering Act course next week to find out more about the latest info on money laundering.

The rule of thumb is, always check with the authorities (e.g. the Securities Commission or Bank Negara) before putting down any money in an investment scheme. Lots of so-called “better than fixed deposit rates” investment schemes out there are usually scams in-disguise.

Not too long ago, there was that Gold Quest scam.
