    • For their suspected involvement in three separate cases of Government Official Impersonation Scams (GOIS), three Malaysian men and one Malaysian woman, aged 24 to 30, will be charged in court on Jan. 21, 2026. One of the cases involved a victim who suffered losses exceeding S$1.1 million.   In all three of the cases, scammers assisting transnational scam syndicates impersonated government officials to deceive victims into transferring or handing over large sums of money. In a news release, the Singapore Police Force (SPF) stated that it continues to "observe an increasing trend of Malaysian nationals travelling to Singapore to assist scam syndicates in collecting cash, gold and valuables from scam victims".   Victim of first case suffered S$1.1 million loss   On Oct. 22, 2025, the police received a report from a victim who had fallen prey to a GOIS scam and suffered losses exceeding S$1.1 million. Investigations revealed that the stolen funds were rapidly laundered through a complex network of payment channels. The transferred funds were also withdrawn from ATMs in Malaysia within hours of the transfers.   On Jan. 20, 2026, officers from the Anti-Scam Command collaborated with the Commercial Crime Investigation Department of the Royal Malaysia Police and arrested two men aged 24 and 30.   Second victim handed over S$50,000 to 'investigation officer'   In the second case, the police received a report on Jan. 19, 2026, where a victim received a call purportedly from HSBC bank informing him of unauthorised transactions on an HSBC credit card under his name. When the man denied having an HSBC credit card, scammers transferred the call to “Monetary Authority of Singapore", where he was told that he was suspected of being involved in a case of money laundering. As part of the "investigation", the victim was instructed to withdraw S$50,000 from his bank account and hand the money to an investigation officer. That same day, he did as he was told and handed the money over to a man, 28, who was the supposed 'investigation officer'.   The 'investigation officer' was subsequently arrested at Woodlands Checkpoint when he attempted to depart from Singapore on the same day.   Victim of third case was told to comply or face 'arrest'   On Jan. 19, 2026, the police received a report about an elderly victim receiving a call from M1 Singapore asking if she had subscribed to any lines under them, which she denied. The elderly woman received another call purportedly from “Monetary Authority of Singapore”, who informed her that she was under investigation and instructed her to provide information about her bank accounts. She was told to prepare cash and hand it over for investigation and safekeeping. She was warned that she would be arrested if she failed to comply. Out of fear, the woman handed S$15,000 to a 26-year-old woman at her void deck, and was subsequently told to hand over another S$9,000.   Feeling something was amiss, the elderly woman called the police, and upon their arrival, the woman was arrested.   Penalties   From Dec. 30, 2025, scammers, members, or recruiters of scam syndicates will face mandatory caning of six to 24 strokes. Scam mules who launder scam proceeds will face discretionary caning of up to 12 strokes. The police stated that Singapore Government officials, including those from the Ministry of Law and Monetary Authority of Singapore will never ask members of the public to transfer money, disclose bank details, install mobile apps from unofficial stores or transfer calls to the police. Members of the public are advised to adopt precautionary measures to safeguard against scams, such as using the ScamShield website or calling the 24/7 ScamShield Helpline at 1799.
