You can open a fixed deposit with the same bank but if a scammer gains access to your online account, you should know that fixed deposits can also be withdrawn online. - why possible
i check with uob
they said only over the counter

Yes, UOB told me only over the counter I can renew or withdraw the money.

During the peak of the fiasco I checked with my RM.
He told me FDs can only be closed over the counter, not on-line.
Not sure if the reporter has his information correct??

It is good that UOB do not allow FDs to be closed on-line and must only be closed by oneself over the counter.......

Been told by my RM that for some banks FDs can be closed via mobile app.

EPIC still remember one civil servant got 500k or 50k I forget inside his saving account. It already show you hard truth civil servant wages is reasonable good. One thing maybe he haven't touch his year end bonus been credit to his saving account.

to the police. If he is a scammer, he definitely won't dare to remove the mask.

The figure is $500K, and must be a high flyer in the civil service to have a savings account of over $500K.............
