By Malay Mail Saturday, 13 Jun 2026 3:15 PM MYT KUALA LUMPUR, June 13 — The Malaysian Judiciary has warned the public against a fake document circulating online that falsely claims to have been issued by the Office of the Chief Registrar of the Federal Court of Malaysia.In a statement posted on its official Facebook page today, the judiciary said it had received complaints regarding a forged notice bearing the title “Final Warning for the Freezing of All Savings and Current Accounts, and Restrictions on EPF Withdrawals under the Debt Claims Act 1957”.The notice purportedly warned recipients that their bank accounts would be frozen, company accounts registered with the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM) restricted, and Employees Provident Fund (EPF) withdrawals blocked over alleged outstanding debts.The judiciary stressed that the document was fraudulent and had not been issued by the Office of the Chief Registrar.“The Office of the Chief Registrar of the Federal Court of Malaysia confirms that the document is fake and was not issued by this office,” it said.The forged letter, which carried the letterhead of the Office of the Chief Registrar and cited the Debt Claims Act 1957, threatened legal action unless payment amounting to RM77,952.42 was made within 24 hours.The judiciary urged members of the public to exercise caution if they receive similar documents.“Members of the public are advised to be careful if they receive documents of this nature,” it said.Those seeking clarification or wishing to verify the authenticity of court-related communications may contact the judiciary at [email protected].
