or a premise that resembles a legitimately-registered motor vehicle in terms of its type, make, model, and registration number. In other words, car cloning is a vehicle identity theft whereby a car is given a new identity to replicate another car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sinarharian.com.my\/article\/136359\/BERITA\/Semasa\/Melaram-dengan-kereta-klon-luput-usia\">Sinar Harian<\/a> reported that from 2016 to March 2021, the Road Transport Department (JPJ) seized a total of 314 cloned vehicles. The director of Selangor&#8217;s JPJ, Nazli Md Taib said JPJ&#8217;s operations found that 95% of the cloned cars were smuggled in from Singapore. Nazli added that the republic (Singapore) set a vehicle age limit with cars exceeding 10 years old considered unsafe and unfit to be driven in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen that period ends, all of the vehicles have to be disposed of. What they (syndicate) do is either bring in the vehicles into the country (Malaysia) first before finding a buyer or find a buyer beforehand,\u201d said Nazli.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"what-happens-if-you-purchase-a-cloned-car\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_happens_if_you_purchase_a_cloned_car\"><\/span>What happens if you purchase a cloned car?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Any individual who owns a cloned car can face prosecution for possessing an unregistered vehicle. Owners of cloned cars can face prosecution under Section 7(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987, leading to a fine not exceeding RM2,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If an individual is guilty of displaying false registration number information, the individual can be charged under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hmetro.com.my\/mutakhir\/2021\/03\/685163\/golongan-muda-lebih-gemar-kereta-klon-metrotv\">Section 103(3)(f) of the Road Transport Act 1987<\/a>. The offense carries a fine of not less than RM5,000 and not exceeding RM20,000, or imprisonment of not less and not more than five years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apart from the above, owners of cloned cars will also suffer more losses than buying a second-hand or new car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"ways-to-avoid-being-a-victim-of-a-cloned-car-syndicate\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ways_to_avoid_being_a_victim_of_a_cloned_car_syndicate\"><\/span>Ways to avoid being a victim of a cloned car syndicate<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-attachment-id=\"19039\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/info\/elak-jadi-mangsa-penipuan-kereta-klon\/attachment\/220112_a7-01-03\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220112_A7-01-03.jpg?fit=1080%2C1080&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1080,1080\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"220112_A7-01-03\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220112_A7-01-03.jpg?fit=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220112_A7-01-03.jpg?fit=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220112_A7-01-03.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Ways to avoid being a victim of a cloned car syndicate\" class=\"wp-image-19039\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220112_A7-01-03.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220112_A7-01-03.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220112_A7-01-03.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220112_A7-01-03.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220112_A7-01-03.jpg?w=1080&amp;ssl=1 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Buying a cloned car may have never come to your mind knowing the risks you may face. However, you may fall victim to buying a cloned car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are some ways to prevent you from falling victim to a cloned car syndicate:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Check the market price of the vehicle<\/strong> that you want to buy. Compare prices of the model through various online platforms.<\/li><li>Stop the dealing if the vehicle&#8217;s price is lower than the vehicle&#8217;s regular market price. For your information, <strong>prices of cloned cars are usually 50% lower than the market prices<\/strong>.<\/li><li><strong>Check the Vehicle Identification Number <\/strong>and ensure that the number listed in the document is the same as the number listed on your car. You can find the Vehicle Identification Number on the car&#8217;s bonnet, windscreen and driver&#8217;s seat.<\/li><li><strong>Avoid paying in cash.<\/strong> If you have bought a cloned car using cash money, it will be difficult for the police to investigate your case.<\/li><li><strong>Avoid paying an advance payment (deposit) in cash in large amounts.<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Check each document provided thoroughly<\/strong>. If there is any doubt about the vehicle status, bring it to a JPJ branch near you for review.<\/li><li><strong>Before buying the car, seek the seller&#8217;s confirmation on the vehicle registration number, manufature year and model<\/strong>.<\/li><li><strong>Buy a second-hand car from an authorised used car dealer<\/strong> online or at their outlet. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"be-careful-when-buying-a-car\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Be_careful_when_buying_a_car\"><\/span>Be careful when buying a car<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you buy a new car, you are safe from the risk of getting a cloned car. On the other hand, if you decide to buy a used car, you may run the risk of getting a cloned car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, please take precautions in making sure the car you would like to buy is not a cloned car. You may refer to our past article on <a href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/buying-a-secondhand-car-these-are-10-tips-to-follow\/\">tips for buying a second-hand car<\/a>. Additionally, follow the above measures to avoid being a victim of a cloned car syndicate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take some time before buying a car. Please do not rush into buying one, and only buy a car when you are sure it is the best to own. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Bjak is&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nst.com.my\/lifestyle\/bots\/2020\/10\/634003\/compare-widest-range-car-insurance-zero-hassle-online-platform\">one of Malaysia\u2019s biggest insurance comparison sites<\/a>, offering 15 insurance brands.&nbsp;<em>Get your&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/en?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=ad&amp;utm_campaign=blogen\">free motorcycle or car insurance quotes online<\/a>&nbsp;at Bjak and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/how-to-renew-car-insurance\/#Renew_car_insurance_online_through_insurance_comparison_sites\">renew your insurance<\/a>&nbsp;in 5 minutes.<\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A cloned vehicle resembles a legitimately-registered motor vehicle in terms of its type, make, model, and registration number.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":21438,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"neve_meta_sidebar":"","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"","neve_meta_content_width":0,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"","neve_meta_disable_title":"","spay_email":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[1239,59],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v18.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Avoid Being a Victim of Cloned Car Syndicates | BJAK<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"A cloned vehicle resembles a legitimately-registered motor vehicle in terms of its type, make, model, and registration number.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/info\/avoid-being-a-victim-of-cloned-car-syndicates\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Avoid Being a Victim of Cloned Car Syndicates | BJAK\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"A cloned vehicle resembles a legitimately-registered motor vehicle in terms of its type, make, model, and registration number.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/info\/avoid-being-a-victim-of-cloned-car-syndicates\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"BJAK\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/bjak.my\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-01-31T09:32:57+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2025-11-03T13:16:08+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/19116.jpg?fit=1600%2C1013&#038;ssl=1\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1013\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@bjakmy\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@bjakmy\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Nur Adilah\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"4 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/#organization\",\"name\":\"Bjak\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/\",\"sameAs\":[\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/bjak.my\",\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/bjak.my\",\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/14607755\/admin\/\",\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bjakmy\"],\"logo\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/logo.png?fit=756%2C756&ssl=1\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/logo.png?fit=756%2C756&ssl=1\",\"width\":756,\"height\":756,\"caption\":\"Bjak\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/\"}},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/\",\"name\":\"BJAK\",\"description\":\"Renew your car and motor insurance at the lowest price!
