SINGAPORE - Scammers are posing as young women in unsolicited text messages, police warned on Friday (March 26).

An increasingly common ruse on platforms such as WhatsApp features a picture of a woman and a message starting with: "Hi, I haven't heard from you for a long time." The senders often claim to be based in Hong Kong.

Police said the messages aim to lure recipients into communicating further with the scammers, who are intent on phishing for personal information and possibly tricking them into handing over funds.

"In such cases, the sender (usually with '+62' prefix) would claim to have changed her mobile phone number and expresses concern over the well-being of the recipient amidst the current Covid-19 situation," said the police.

"The recipients would later be instructed to reply to a different WhatsApp number (usually with '+852' prefix) to continue the conversation."

+62 is the country code for Indonesia, while +852 belongs to phone numbers from Hong Kong.

Members of the public should block the senders and report their phone numbers to messaging platforms through in-app reporting channels, police said. They are also advised to take the following precautionary measures:

a. Ignore the message and do not engage with the scammers;

b. Exercise caution when befriending strangers online;

c. Never send money to people you do not know or have not met in person;

d. Do not click on suspicious URL links provided. When in doubt, always verify the authenticity of the information with the official website or alternative sources;

e. Never share bank account log-in credentials with anyone.

Those who have information on scammers or have received a suspicious message can call the police hotline on 1800-255-0000, or send queries online here. For more information on scams, visit this website or call the Anti-Scam Hotline on 1800-722-6688.

I have tried Michat. Had few hits and misses. I have had some hits especially with ATB spa girls soliciting for customers and of course a number of dickies posing as lonely MILF Ang Moh expats. One girl claimed to be a Sabahan Chinese working in Singapore. Told me to transfer her money before asking me to head down to this hotel. I'm a budget hotel expert so this hotel sounds funny. Had a quick check on Google and the hotel she claimed that was in central area was actually in Ipoh. LOL. Told her I will transfer her soon and after that I blocked her.
 
Sir John Tan should try this product called Blisswater. It's to be sprayed on his kukujiao since age is catching up with him.

Of course you should do them. :eek::biggrin::roflmao:
 
Beware, similar scammers prowl certain online dating sites. Lonely and desperate men might take the bait. :biggrin:
 
Nobody ever calls or message me. So i may respond to this one just to see where it leads.

Wechat is the gold standard when interacting with ATBs. Whatsapp for official/semiofficial communication. Telegram for less politically correct stuff.

There are others e.g. Line, Kakaotalk etc but they're not really important unless you are a youngster who wants to collect those kawaii stickers there. :biggrin:

If those jiakliaobees had done their job, this wouldn't be happening in the first place. It's understandable if it's one or a few sporadic cases. When something like this happens, it's a systemic failure. :cool:
