  1. It begins...government starting to even further restrict access to OUR money.

    Why?

    It wouldn't be outrageous to say that they are using it for themselves.

    Govt = crooks?

  4. I used to be a Multual Fund Agent, and indeed i see lots of unqualifed agents just trying to make a quick buck. These days if you really want to buy just do it yourselves. Don't trust most agents as they are going for the quick buck. They may act like your best buddies but they are after your hard earned cash. It may seem that the EPF is not your real cash at hand but it's still YOUR money. Don't talk to these so called agents.. do it yourselves. Don't let them make such a big cut just for taking you out for dinner and making you feel like your their long lost buddies... Now they attack FaceBook like what anonymous said.. they will post updates like they are enjoying lives and "helped" many people, in fact they are suffering.. making ends meet!

    1. Agree Lacy,
      some even post in facebook and to prevent people from reading these comments they take screenshots and try to sell their 'services'

      Putting headlines like "FINAL MONTH REMINDER to all Malaysians contributing EPF !!"

      Trying to use fear to make people fall for their trick.

      Beware... Nothing comes easy. If it's so easy everyone will be rich
