The Singapore Police have issued a warning about phishing scams involving WhatsApp messages impersonating Singapore Post Limited (SingPost). Since March 15, 2026, at least 10 cases have been reported, resulting in losses exceeding $22,000. Victims receive messages claiming failed parcel deliveries due to incomplete information and are prompted to click on a link to update their details. This link directs them to a phishing website where they are asked to provide sensitive banking information. Victims only realize they have been scammed after unauthorized transactions appear in their accounts. The police advise the public to ignore suspicious links and not to disclose sensitive information. They recommend using the ScamShield app and contacting the ScamShield Helpline for verification. The situation is ongoing as the police continue to investigate and warn the public.
