Beware of the latest Hotlink Scam Contest

My bro just got a call today noon from "Hotlink" saying that he just won RM 7,000 on Hotlink top-up contest. They told him that he needs to give them his Maybank account number. **Sounds fishy to me.**  Anyway, my bro ask them to call him back in 15 minutes.
 
Well, me and my bro call up the real Hotlink line, 1300 820 120 to rectify the authenticity. We were told that it was a scam contest by a Indonesia group. Hotlink have known about this and are on to them!
 
To our surprise, the scammer did call back, and we told them we know their intention. They simply brush us off by saying if you do not want it, we will give it to others.
 
So folks, NOTHING IS FREE IN THIS WORLD. So BEWARE!

    Everything is possible today they just use any trick to make people fall for it.

    Good to know your bro didn’t fall for it. IF I get such call I will be thinking too why on earth this person want my bank account. If I won just give me the chq I will bank in myself. :)
