SINGAPORE: Scams involving cyber extortion, kidnap, lottery or lucky draw, impersonation, online purchase, fund transfers and Internet love - these are the common scams highlighted by the Police and the National Crime Prevention Council (NCPC) on Friday (Nov 28).
The findings were revealed at the launch of their nationwide public education campaign at Temasek Polytechnic. To address the issue, seven new publicity visuals, and an informative website that allows people to share their experiences with scams anonymously, were unveiled.
Winners of the Scam Alert! photo contest, which was held in conjunction with the campaign, also received their prizes from the guest-of-honour, Second Minister for Home Affairs S Iswaran, on Friday.
