Former minister warns ‘anyone with your IC and postcode’ can register your Padu account without your knowledge


PETALING JAYA: Former deputy international trade and industry minister Ong Kian Ming has urged Malaysians to register their Padu account immediately due to cybersecurity concerns. “Please register your PADU account at http://padu.gov.my immediately. If not, anyone with your IC and postcode of your IC address can register your IC on your behalf since registration is b4 the eKYC approval which takes 3 days. It will be a hassle to get back your account!”, Ong claimed in a post on X (formerly Twitter). To register for a Padu account, members of the public need to provide their full name along with an NRIC number and matching postcode.
