i received call from this number 03-78491300 and another 03-78491000 at 9.35am on 23rd august 2010...
after i call that both number nobody pick the phone..

i feel irritating.. plz do sumting to stop this.

i received call from 0378411800 but no sound. after 5 mins i received call from 0378491300 n they told me they called from bonus link...

I received the same caller as you guys. An Indian guy looking for a person name Yap Sil Mun. Definitely not me and I asked calling from where. This guy said from GE insurance. After reading all these comments, definitely a scam call. Ignored it if call again.

i also received the call 03784913000, is call from UNICEF.They ask me to joint in monthly donor programme.
UNICEF depends entirely on your assistance to continue making positive changes in the lives of underprivileged children in Malaysia and around the world.

I'd just got the same call asking for Unicef donation.
But I think this is most likely from a BPO representing UNICEF.

I also received missed call frm the stated no. just now twice. call back engaged. Luckyly i check this no thru google. After reading all the comments, I suspect this caller just wanted your particular especially your credit cards no. for monthly deduction for charity. Later they will miss use your information..  There are now a lot of this telemarketter calling people, getting them to join or enrol in. They are very professional in persuading you without you knowing they already got your credit cards no. BEWARE OF THIS KIND OF NEW SCAM.

I really do not like this kind of method of telemarketing. get people information thru phone to enrol/buy  something that you are not giving a time to think about first...

this number is from UNICEF, i call back to the following office( 03-20959154),
and confirmed the number which 03-78491300 is call from them.

Got a call frm 03-78491300 this past few weeks. Confirmed as telemarketer. Better dont pick-up.

Received call from this no. Saying that I'm one of the selected Citibank card holder to receive a new type of insurance (How come I always been selected..?). To pay monthly RM 190 to receive some hospitalization benefits and so on. Claimed that they are from AXA Affin insurance works hand in hand with Citibank.

In general, i think all of us who received calls from either 03-78491000 or 03-78491300 shared the same experience.. None of us managed to talk to the other party when we tried to return our calls (lines busy or not able to get through) Conclusion, we are at the bright side and the other party is at the dark side. Let's not to be fooled on this.. Whenener you receive calls from those number again, p/s reject the call.

Yo, just received a MISS CALL from this number, while i am having conversation with my client. Luckily i didn't pick up~!

I was reading all of the above while getting the call from this number (thank God for internet!) It's the same as one of you; telling me that if i signup CPP today for RM98 per annum i'm eligible for an instant 300 points from Bonuslink.

1. Yes, they have all our information (phone numbers, address, full name, etc) <-- scary ain't it?

2. They don't have our I/C number and Credit Card numbers <-- phew

3. I guess they really are in effect BPO telemarketer; since one of you were told it was from prudential, the other allianz, and in my case CPP <www.cppasia.com>

And what did I decided in the end? I said YES to that telemarketer. Why?

1. He has valid reason to actually call me up and close the deal on the phone; the CCPAsia HQ is in Hong Kong (that's why I can't make a walk-in registration)

1. Because he cared to explain painstakingly everything to me

2. He told me firsthand that he actually has all of those information and won't require me to actually dictate them one-by-one through the phone. Simply put, he just need my validation (and IC and card number) and I value convenience =)

3. He understand the risk that I am taking, and reassures me that he won't ask for my Credit Card information such as Expiry Date, the 3-digit at the back of the card, name, etc. He just need the 16 digits on the front side of the card. He even suggested that I used my Debit card if I have one (and so I did!)

As pointed out by some of you, yes, the telemarketers are mostly school drop-outs. As such, they are inept for being patient or tactful. Lucky me I got a good one; he really understand the idea of respect.

The bottomline is: yes, our banks do solicit our information third party. But my guess is it's not the Bank's fault but the scheme of some of the bad apples in the company.

Will update if the supposed transactions go wrong (or if I did not get my Bonuslink points! :P)

i received the miss call too....

this number is from
Symphony BPO Solutions Sdn Bhd
Block D13 Pusat Dagangan Dana 1
Jalan Pju 1a/46, 47301 Petaling Jaya, Selangor
for info : http://investing.businessweek.com/research/st ... ivcapId=8121726

don't you idiots read the whole thing? no it's not a scam. the calls are made from a call center. most large banks and insurance companies outsource their telemarketing to this call center. and they also hire idiots to make these calls.
what do you get when idiots talk to idiots?

I also received call from this number and when i pick up the line just cut off. I found this topic when i google 03-7849 1300, so i decided to block this no using software installed in my hp and when they're dial me again, they will heard  "my no will no longer in service" :D

I just received a call from this phone no 03-7849 1000.When i call back ,the network is busy.I though is bank call.So i check this number at internet.Then came out this forum.Then i notice this is scam calling.

i received this number too. A guy said that he is from bonus link company and would like to offer wallet protection and charged RM98 per year. and asked for my credit card number.
