You should not disclose your personal information publicly.

Be careful about your personal information, esp. country that practices the use of personal identity card (IC) like Singapore, Malaysia and Hong Kong. If you are not careful, it will fall into bad hands, real bad hands.

Reasons can be simple and yet nobody bother about it. However, during my last trip to Malaysia, I had noticed Malaysian had been very very very careful with the photo-copied IC. They had ensured that the IC had been canceled with a line stating what it is for and make sure they see it. Beside that, photo-copied credit card (front and back), the cvv number had been darken or removed completely to prevent theft of credit card use.

Why you should do the same?

If you don't, unknowingly, someone will pass your photo-copied IC to the loan shark to receive loans. You won't know until the load shark starts to paint you house door/gate red. By then, it is too late, either you report to the authority (police) or pay up. That's all you can do, worst still is that the harassment will affect your neighbours, by then you will be very shameful over it.

There has been report that this is happening, so please exercise precaution when disclosing your personal information.
