They were involved in more than 1,300 cases that resulted in losses of about $39.3 million. Additionally, more than $7.69 million was seized from 714 frozen bank accounts.

The police said that the suspects are being investigated for abetting cheating and unauthorised access to computer material, assisting in retaining benefits of drug dealing or criminal conduct, and the unlawful disclosure of passwords or access codes in relation to national digital identity services.

Mr David Chew, director of Singapore’s Commercial Affairs Department, said: “In today’s digital age, scam syndicates operate without geographical constraints, employing increasingly sophisticated methods across multiple jurisdictions to defraud victims and launder their illicit proceeds.


“A transnational threat requires a transnational response. No single jurisdiction has an adequate answer to this scourge, but we are collectively stronger together.”

Mr Chew added that the joint effort across members of cross-border Anti-Scam collaboration platform Operation Frontier+ (Funds Recovery Operations and Networks Team, Inspiring Effective Resolution Plus) demonstrates a shared commitment to disrupting transnational scam syndicates.

Operation Frontier+, which was set up in October 2024, now comprises representatives from anti-scam centres in 10 jurisdictions – namely Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Thailand, the Maldives, South Korea, Australia, Macau, Canada and Indonesia.

It focuses on enhancing international cooperation in tackling scams through seamless information sharing, coordinated responses and knowledge exchange.

Its core functions include real-time intelligence exchange and analysis, along with periodic joint operations across jurisdictions.

The platform aims to broaden its reach by welcoming new member countries and regions, ultimately enhancing the effectiveness of enforcement efforts against transnational crime.

“By combining our resources and enforcement capabilities, we are creating a united front against scam. We will continue strengthening these international partnerships to ensure our citizens are safe from scams and scammers have no safe haven,” said Mr Chew.
