Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia — April 20, 2026 — 96M Casino, one of Southeast Asia’s most recognized online casino and sports betting platforms, has issued an official warning to Malaysian users regarding a significant increase in phishing websites and fraudulent domains impersonating the 96M brand.
The warning comes in response to a growing number of unauthorized websites using the 96M name, logo, and visual identity to deceive players into surrendering login credentials, personal information, and financial deposits.
Scammers Are Exploiting 96M’s Brand Recognition
According to 96M’s internal security team, fraudulent operators have been systematically creating copycat websites designed to closely mimic the appearance of 96M’s legitimate platform. These fake sites employ a range of deceptive tactics, including:
- Falsely claiming that 96M is “under maintenance” and redirecting users to fraudulent platforms to intercept deposits
- Advertising unrealistic welcome bonuses of 300% to 500% to lure unsuspecting players into registering on fake sites
- Replicating 96M’s login interface to harvest usernames and passwords
- Distributing unofficial mobile applications through unauthorized channels, some of which contain malware
“As 96M continues to grow across Malaysia and Southeast Asia, our brand has become a target for bad actors who seek to exploit the trust that players have placed in us,” said a spokesperson for 96M. “We take this threat extremely seriously and are committed to protecting every user who interacts with our platform. Transparency and user safety are foundational to everything we do at 96M.”
How Malaysian Players Can Stay Protected
96M urges all Malaysian users to observe the following security practices:
Verify the URL at all times. The only official 96M platforms are listed and verified at the96m.com/official-security-notice/. Users in Malaysia may refer to 96mharimau.com and users in Singapore to 96mlioncity.com for region-specific guidance. Any variation in the domain — even a single character — should be treated as suspicious and closed immediately. Known fraudulent domains include 96m-casino.com, the96m.net, and 96mcasino.live.
Look for SSL certification. Every legitimate 96M page displays a padlock icon in the browser’s address bar. Users should verify this before entering any personal or financial information.
Avoid third-party Telegram groups and WhatsApp channels. 96M does not operate any official communication through these platforms. Any account claiming to represent 96M outside of the96m.com is not authorized.
Report suspicious activity immediately. Users who encounter a fraudulent website are encouraged to contact 96M’s 24/7 Live Chat support directly at the96m.com and to submit a report to Google Safe Browsing at safebrowsing.google.com.
Users in Malaysia may also file a formal report with CyberSecurity Malaysia via cyber999.com to assist in the takedown of fraudulent domains.
96M’s Ongoing Commitment to User Security
96M is actively cooperating with relevant Malaysian authorities, including MCMC and CyberSecurity Malaysia, to identify, report, and remove all websites impersonating the brand.
The platform operates under a license issued by the Gaming Control Board (GCB) and maintains independent certifications from BMM Testlabs, iTech Labs, and TST Global — organizations that regularly audit the platform for fairness, security, and operational integrity.
An updated list of verified 96M domains and the latest security advisories are published and maintained at the96m.com/official-security-notice/.
