KUALA LUMPUR - The police has not received any police reports regarding the allegation that MyKad data of Malaysian citizens is being sold via the dark web.
Bukit Aman Commercial Crime Investigation Department (CCID) deputy director (Investigation) Datuk Rohaimi Md Isa said that the investigation conducted by CCID Cyber and Multimedia Crime Investigation Division has so far not found any evidence regarding the allegation.
"CCID will continue to monitor to determine the validity of the information. Appropriate investigations will be carried out together with other relevant agencies if a police report regarding the issue is received,” he said in a statement today.
