The sign, displayed on a black car’s window, advised potential thieves not to damage the vehicle as it had already been burglarised.
“Please do not break my window again. This car has already been broken into. There is nothing to steal,” the sign read.
Malaysian netizens upset over sign
Since Sunday, the post has caught the attention of many netizens online, with several jokingly suggesting the sign would just encourage thieves to steal the actual vehicle.
Other Malaysian commenters were seemingly annoyed by the sign, advising Singaporeans not to visit their country.
