Asked to receive and send on money in Singapore: what to do now

Call your bank now. Tell them someone asked you to receive money and send it on for them.

Say: "Someone asked me to receive money into my account and send it on for them. I now think it is a scam. Please help me stop it."

Have ready: Your account number, and the date and amount of each payment in and out.

Call the number on the back of your card.

Report it to the police, online or at a police centre. Banks often ask for the report number.

Have ready: Your evidence: dates, amounts, account numbers, usernames and screenshots.

Check your bank and card statements every day for the next few weeks. Look for new payees and new devices.

Never let anyone use your bank account, cards or logins to receive or move money, whatever they offer to pay you.

No real bank or police officer will ask you to move money to keep it safe. Anyone offering to recover your money for a fee is a scammer.

This happens to millions of careful people. It is not your fault. If you need to talk, these lines are free.
