Scam cases in Singapore are at an all-time high this year, with 10,402 reported as at August, nearly double the 5,229 for the same period last year.
Scammers can appear convincing, but there are a few signs that can help you figure out if a call, message or e-mail is genuine.
Q: Can I tell if a call is fake before I pick up?
A: Yes. Be on your guard when the call is from an unknown number or is prefixed with a plus (+) sign, as the call is likely coming from overseas.
