The 'Investment Guru' has left the chat — with your money. 💸

Victims are enticed to “invest” through false promises of attractive returns and fabricated testimonials from purported chat group members.

Remember:
✅ Only invest through entities or persons regulated by MAS
⚠️ Always verify who you are dealing with before transferring any money

More than $5.4 million has been lost to Government Officials Impersonation Scams (GOIS) since April 2026. 😱

Scammers, impersonating Government officials, have been accusing victims of being involved in criminal activities.

They have asked victims to make cash transfers via ATMs to ‘safety accounts’ for investigation purposes.

Remember!

‼️ Government officials, including the Police, will NEVER ask you to transfer money or hand over valuables (e.g. cash, gold, cryptocurrency) over a phone call.

Hang up if you are unsure and check with the 24/7 ScamShield Helpline at 1799 ☎️
