About Scams Singapore

Scams Singapore is a blog designed to identify and broadcast scams, also known as fraud, in Singapore to alert all innocent people. We hope more people will be aware of all the tricksters who are out to cheat your money (or emotion perhaps), so that you can, at least, avoid them.

Although our focus is on scams in Singapore, we are sure that similar scams will occur in other countries as well.

We will also be highlighting scams that take place throughout the world, which includes rent scams, telephone scams, credit card scams, card scams, phone scams and other form of scams. You will be amazed.

Our sources of scam stories are from visitors and our real-life experience. Most people would have encountered scammers but choose to ignore them; we simply spend time to share our experiences with everyone. We also have to depend on news sources from the mainstream media's websites for news.

Please note that some scam stories covered may not be illegal by law, but are subjected to personal views that may be deem as scam to some people but not all.

Don't let your hard-earned money go into the drain. If you were to lose your money to scammers, you might as well donate all of them to the charity.


Is there any profit?

This blog is run voluntary without any business plan - all we want is to help people because we have been victimized before as well. If you are interested, you can join us as an author as well, or simply submit your story to us (with all details and evidence if applicable).

We are not selling any product or service, and there is nothing for us to sell.

Therefore, please pardon us if we are not able to get back to you or if we cannot update articles promptly enough; we have to focus on our jobs in order to survive so that we can continue with this project.

We are open to any form of assistance.

  1. I met a guy a few months ago and he claimed he love me and won my heart within days. In fact, he proposed right after our first meeting and was doing everything a girl dream for. He drove around in luxurious sport cars and claimed he has many businesses. (I guess his story would be different for every case). It wasnt money that made me fell in love with him but the charisma and attentiveness he possess. Whatever it is, for my case, he claimed he bought a house for us and even showed me evidences, etc. Days later he asked for a loan due to cash flow problems. I felt I was the cause of his problem and loan him a huge sum of money. He then disappeared and said he's too ashamed to face anyone. His identity is faked and contact numbers are not registered under his name. He has been doing this for a few years and I believe there are many victims out there. He has been caught recently and now on bail. I am looking for more girls to stand up to seek justice.

    Description of him: 33/Chinese/Singaporean, about 176cm, fat with short hair (with long gold fringe) and the most distinctive feature is his two broken front teeth. He is always in tshirt and bermudas and mostly driving a black Nissan.

    Please drop me a message if you think you are one of the victims. Contacts will be confidential. May justice prevail.

  2. Bought a ring online for $3.50 and after i transferred the money to the seller, she said she will mail it out.
    About a week later, there was no news and so i texted her.
    She then replied saying, 'my suppplier run away already, how much you paid me?' followed by, 'I can't refund you your money'.
    I got angry, naturally, and told her i will report her to the police if she doesn't refund me.
    She then replied saying, 'I only do meet up for refund . And u have to sign a letter to prove u won't make a police report against us , we will need ur IC photcopied as to prove.'
    Her replies were sent only yesterday, 16th march at 8:24pm.
    Not only hasn't she refunded me, she has also locked her blog and avoided my calls.
    This is an obvious case of fraud.

  4. Okay, another romance con artist going by the name of Desmond Cliff, attracts Singaporean females. He claims he is Alaskan, been living in California, and outstationed in Sabah, Malaysia. Works for Chase company. Wife died of childbirth, both parents had died, and only brother left. He is in Badoo.com, facebook and also yahoo messenger. From his accent and spelling and words use, one can tell a little later, that he is not American. Americans don't use 'severally', nor say 'back' as 'buk'.. only UKs and Nigerians do that. Be careful. His stories will look so real when it comes to asking you to help him financially. He would tell you how he got help from others first, and then you are his last resort. How he needed just that much left. I was a victim. Glad it wasn't so much but I am still threatening him to repay me back. Learned my lesson with all this wealth of information on the net. Also, everybody in US will be listed in PeopleSearch, so check out first. Be careful out there.

  5. Here is a Credit card scam that they are doing. They order from 1800.00 to 5000.00 dollars worth of product off your website by credit card. The billing and shipping address match. As soon as the order it, They want you to ship it immediately, and wear you out daily about getting the product shipped asap. It is obvious now that it was a stolen credit card because 30 days later, you will get a no authorization to purchase against your shopping cart. I was using pay-pal pro processor for my shopping cart which handles credit cards but does not give you any seller protection which I found out later.They only do seller protect on Pay-pal only and not all the time. Once the no authorization hits, pay-pal takes that amount out of your account immediately. They then fight for you to resolve the issue with the credit card company. With out letting the whole world know the outcome, the bottom line is the scammer has the product. You paid for the product and then your account gets hits for the entire amount when the no authorized purchase contacts pay-pal which puts you negative for what ever the amount was. If you send some product out, they tell their buddies and what happen to me is that 5 of them ordered product all before the first no authorization hit which means there was money and product going everywhere and in the end you have no protection on the orders, the product that did get sent you will no longer see and you will be responsible for the money on it. This has been a horrible and very expensive scam that was done to me and all I did was have products to sell on the internet from my website. My site has some very expensive items , so it did not take many items to really rack up the money which has all fallen on me. Now, I can no longer take a order from a legitimate customer because my pay-pal is in the negative. If a order comes in, it just makes my account less negative. Then you would have to try and chase that money down. It has been a nightmare to say the least. A lot of the times they ask if you take credit cards as the first email. Be very careful as these Singapore scammers are probably from Indonesia or Malaysia using freight forward addresses at the airport in Singapore. All the address's were on Airport Rd, Bldg. what ever. BEWARE..

  6. Dear Friends,

    I just want to make aware all the people who are searching for Rented houses.

    There are people in group who will put an Ad. on gumtree or other website for Rented house 2+1 or 3+1. they will ask the Rent lesser then the market price like (1400 - 1700 for 2+1) and (1700 to 1900) for 3+1.
    Once people see this less price Ad and call the number which they mention in the Ad. One Lady mostly will pick the phone (some time could be guy also). Lady is of age around 30 -35 blend cut may be chinese. (Name - Melza)

    She will arrange the meeting with u and show u the house and will say will paint the house and do all cleaning and other work etc.
    She will say they are the Management company(TDAP) and NOT the agent. So we will take care of the house for whole tenure for any demage etc.

    Once you are impressed with her talks and less rental. She will ask 2 months deposite, 1 month rent and 1 month management fees. And will ask to deposite money in her comapny account.

    She will give u aggreement papar and deposit slip evrything very nicely and will agree for your move in date.
    But as your move in date will come near she will say house is not available. And says I will show u another house or move u in another house for time being.

    she will keep u showing many houses but will never give u those houses. And you will be stuck because youe move in date is near and u can not find new house also. If u ask ur money she will not agree for refund and if she agrees to refund she will give you a Cheque which will get bounced latar on when u deposite in your bank account. As they will issue you closed account cheque.

    Many people they have targeted mostly Indain families who can not run behind them to get money back, they r taking advantage. Also they do not pay the owners and agents from whom they take houses.

    Many people are their victim (I am also one of their victim). So I do not want any other people to suffer like me and others who are suffering mental and physical tortour. I compalined to police also but do not know when action will be taken care.

    So plssssssssss my friends do not get traped to get Rented house on seeing cheaper Rent. And from any company says they r management company. they are 3-4 people made a gang and doing scam and fraud to innocent people. They do have company office also. do not get impressed seeing their office.

    Note : they will give you all the documents very neatly (like agreement, deposit slip and money transfred slip etc.) but, at last these documents will not be helpful. Once money gone its gone.

    So, pls get house only through register agents under (CEA) and ask there ID cards. and do meet owner before taking any house.

    pls take all the precautions before giving your hard earned money.

    Thanks for your attention. And voice out for any fraud or cheating you come accross to safe others.

  7. I am also one of the victim of this so called. TDAP Management. They took around 5000 SGD. and after that that's it. I complained to Police, filed a case against them in Small Claims Tribunal. They did not attend the court. Court passed order to pay back in one month. They didn't pay. I wonder no one can really do anything to them.

  9. Now Melza gives a fake name called Jenny. She would say the house got problems and tell you that she will refund the money. She will drag it till you cant get a single cent back.

    Pls be aware of this. Always seek a housing agent who is CEA registered. Always get their namecard first and check their license no. with CEA. Never pass your cash if they refuse to pass you their namecard or tell you that they forgot to bring.

  10. Hey want to report a scam by this girl in tagged.
    http://www.tagged.com/profile.html?uid=5979703441

    She told me she need money to clear her debts. So she gave me her number and ask me to text her at 83846819. But i feel this maybe a scam and i instead told her i will call her,she say ok i called her. Not even in a minute of time, she pick and we talk for that one minute. She instead say she will text me how much she need, she say she need $360 to clear debts. I knew in a second it was scam. She and me did not see each other before and asked for $360 was too ridiculous. I told i am person exposing scams, she in turn told me she going to report me to the police for harassing her. And say she recorded the call conversation.

    Anyone who came across, please reconsider if want to help her in believing her story.

  11. Tdap Management had changed the name to Apen Group Management Services to continue scamming the people who search for rental houses. It even came out in newspapers. They mainly target Indian families. Please be aware of this.

    They are a group of liars. Dont rush into making payment after being convinced with a nicely renovated house with cheap rental. They 'll also tell you that if you pay 3 months rental at one shot, it'll be cheaper!

  28. Hi Guys,
    anyone know this freelance travel agent - Ms Kee Kim Noi? (aka Bambi Kee)

    Ms Kee Kim Noi, who is a freelance travel agent, claimed that she has linkages with certain airlines and agents, helped several people to book air tickets or packages.

    After she made the booking for us with Farmosa travel, she went missing with our money. As Farmosa travel did not receive any payment from her, the booking was cancelled. Ms Kee, apparently went missing with those money. Therefore, would like to see your help if anyone has come across this person or know anyone who has.

    She will usually sell you air tickets or packages and asked you to transfer money to her bank account. After which, she will delay issuing the tickets or the tour packages until you give up and wanted to take back the money. Then, she will claimed that the money is delayed with her "agent" and the refund will keep dragging until you do not get a single cent from her.

    Would like to connect with anyone who knows her or anyone who has friends who knows her so that we can go to the police together.

  29. Hi i got scammed by an instagram shop @esmeloveshop . I transferred to her via ibanking , on 31 October .She didnt reply since. I opted for registered postage which she said she mailed but is unable to provide me with the reference number. As such she gave an excuse saying she mailed it wrongly via normal mail and mailed another new one to me last week. Since then she STILL hasnt given me the reference number. So i kept spamming her and even commented her instagram account. Today , she blocked me on instagram and deleted all my comments. She even blocked me on whatsapp.

    Her mobile number is 81010404.


    Anyone else under same situation as me ?
    Others do keep a watchout thanks.
    The amount i lost may not be that much , but its the act that is incorrigible.

  30. Hi, I am an online facebook seller and recently there was this lady who contacted me regarding some purchases she intend to make. I realised she was residing in thailand and told her that the mailing fee will be high and it doesn't make sense for her to make the purchase. Few weeks later she mentioned that she will be coming back to singapore for christmas and leaving on 5th jan. And she placed an order with me for 2 pairs of kids shoes plus a bag (under preorder) but mentioned that she cannot pay me until she is back. Out of goodwill, I placed the order for her first and purchase the goods with my own money. During the period of placing orders and shipment, she ask if goods are ordered and when will it arrive. Once stocks arrived before christmas, I contacted her to make payment before I arrange for courier to her and she just simply brush it off saying she is unsure when will she be back. I told her to make payment to me via remittance services by the bank or check with them what other options are there to transfer the money to me and she just simply say that she will do it when she is free. Since I cannot wait indefinitely, I ask for a deadline and she say that she don't know how to reply me and could just blacklist her. Please let me know what can I do with buyer like this. Her facebook name is: Dex Sawadeekrap

  31. Chiestian is a fake name that this person uses to the victims and his real name is Leonard Quek Wei Yong. He is active in wechat and skout. He drove a Suzuki Swift with car plate number SGC2021C or a BMW and lives in Boon Lay Ave. His handphone number is 83803381 or 98341121 and occasionally changed number when he managed to get victims to sign handphone lines for him. He will claim that he is good to his friends and willing to loan them money and buy expensive gifts for his friends. He will say he is in the Handphone industry and had 3 shops at 3 different locations. He carries a very “Aunty” Gucci bag and said he only wears branded goods. He will usually drive to meet his victims and claimed that he forgets to bring wallet and needs to do an urgent transfer to his supplier. After the first successfully transaction that the victim gives him, he will claim that he did a wrong transaction from a different bank to the victim’s bank and demand the victim to return the balance as he is in needs to pay the supplier. He will also ask the girl to sign up handphone line for him to help him in his business uses however he will refused to pay for the subscription and took the handphone away and usually is more than 1 line for each victim.

    He will say that he is single initially and the victims to mall and look at watches or gadget and help him to pay first and he will return to his shop to take the money and give the victims back however it never happen. Everytime when the victims demand for the return, he will give all excuses especially to tell them he is very sick and needs rest or he is busy at work. After a while he will tell the victim that he is a single dad with a 15months girl and the wife left him for another guy as he is too busy with work and neglect her and claimed his mum is taking care of the daughter when he needs to work.

    I had lodged a police report. I also managed to find a few victims and all victims put sympathy votes on him as he has a child to take care so did not lodge any police report. Furthermore, he will give assurance that he will not con the money and will return and again, it never happen. I would urge the more victims to stand out and fight this fraud case to prevent more people to get conned as he is definitely using the kindness of mankind to commit all these crimes. U can google using his real name and read articles about him.

  34. Anyone knows about ufunstore.com / utokens.com / ubonuss.com / or anything to do with ufun group ltd?

    I hear supporters from Ufun company in Singapore, that if you invest USD2,000, you can earn a lot in a couple of months. He told me that it is a forever winning strategy so long as there are ever-increasing buyer in the system.

    I totally don't understand but he wants us to invest *if we feels comfortable*.

    Say if we can earn USD$10,000 in less than 4 months with investment of only USD$2000, like why not right?

    Please advise. How do we check or know if it is a big scale scam?

    1. I have recently joined that scam company. Fortunately, I have squeezed out of that mess. I was introduced to the UFun Company by a Chinese lady. Initially, they told me I could get back my capital within a few months. But those months turned into a year. According to a lady working there, she told me that it was business based. It was not what they had told me earlier. And to add on, they told me to get people to support this company so that I would earn commission. It seemed unofficial and fake towards me and they didn't have the best service either. The lady who was in charge behind this whole company was quite unfriendly. She normally asked me to wait whenever I came there and even embarrassed me in front of others by insulting me as a 'slow learner'. And on the website, I had earned around 1000+ points to trade back money by the US exchange rate but the very next day, it dropped to 57. I felt uneasy as if it was normally robotically controlled, it normally wouldn't make any mistakes. I felt as if someone was in control of the website, manually controlling all points. I didn't have any confidence in this company so I decided with my husband that I try and take back my money, 7k, from them. After discussing with the lady, she just scratched her heads and immediately gave me back the whole fund. Which seemed quite weird towards me as I did threat towards them that I would do something about this if I did not get my money back.
      Do you really think that someone would be ever so kind to make money for you for a short period of time? Their business would've gone down a long time ago.
      I may not know if it was a legitimate system or a scam, but I can tell you that I do not suggest it 100%.

    4. This is in response to posting of Anonymous on Apr 12
      I am not sure when you joined this scheme because you say that you joined recently, but it has been a year since you received no money.
      It seems that the lady who introduced you has not explained to you fully, or has been over enthusiastic in promising the returns.
      It is not clear if the amount you mentioned as 57 is the tradable unit, or the price after the split. What is it?
      The concept and calculations should have been explained clearly to you by the person who introduced you.
      If you check the price now as compared to month of April (which I assume is the date you joined), you would find that the price has gone up.
      The company is sound, with activities in ecommerce, building etc.
      My opinion is that you should not have withdrawn your investment.
      You may wish to lodge a complaint to the company against the lady if you feel she had misrepresented.

    5. This is in response to posting by goshcat on March 21st.
      Again, it seems to be misrepresentation by over enthusiastic persons.
      There is a possibility to earn good returns, but no one can guarantee that.
      Ufun's business are sound, logical and there are ways to protect against manipulation by a group of people.
      Please take some time to know more about their functioning.
      If you wish to, you may let me know your interest here and I can explain to the best of my knowledge, without obligation.

      I'm earning too. In about 2 months, I've withdrew 7K USD, That's about 3/4 of my initial investment in Ufun, and i don't have to recruit anyone.
      Its obvious that the lady did not explained to you clearly.

    9. As long as money is invested, it has to be regulated by MAS.

    10. Never invest in Ufun. Scam and Money laundering. The company in Malaysia was totally empty for past 6months. Thai official are arresting them now. My friend is working for the company at HQ Malaysia. I am a Malaysian. Try to avoid investing in Malaysia company if you are not familiar.

  35. I was on the carousell ( the singapore shopping app), i was searching for ps4. Then i came across one listing he only sells the ps4 for $475 for a few hours. I chat with him and he asked me to add him on FB his profile is "YourSingapore Branded". I chatted with him for a long time about why this wont be a scam, he told me that once i transferred half the amt he will show his nric. I did transfer the amount to DBS Savings 120-6-007466 and he send me a picture of his nric front and back. he told me his name is Javier and in his nric is also written as Goh Kian Yi, Javier. After i paid the full amount he told me to wait 4 days for the item to arrive. the next day, i chat with him and he does not reply me at all.
    The point is not only he scammed me, but he may also have stolen other people's nric.Any suggestion on how to solve this? Is there any chance my money can be returned to me?
    Now he deactivated the facebook account

    1. Hey you should report to police with the account number and the fb account even it's deactivated.. with the Ic, the police should be able to check for the real owner of the IC. The email address and account number can be traced too. Act fast.. this kind of things can't run away one

      Delete
    2. Stolen IC. Impersonating. Scammers won't use their real details. They use the innocents and get them into deep shits! But reporting to police is a good start. The innocents would know what happened to their ICs.

    1. Hi, I have faced the same incident also, parcel blocked by SG custom, then IRAS, then the Anti-Laundary and Anti-Terriorist Certificate.
      The person is called James Allen with We Chat ID: allenLevine19. This courier company is also faked: air_courier@aim.com, +1 205 301 2728.
      Have you recovered your money after making the police report?

  39. Hi guys I would like to ask about this forex investment scheme, a joint effort of Miracle of Power (Malaysia) and Easy Capital Global (Australia). They promised a monthly returns of 5% for every 10k usd you invest in them. it sounds too good to be true! Any feedbacks regarding them will be more than welcomed!

  41. Beware of this person AllenLevine19 (aka Allen James) who add me in We Chat. He is also the one who takes initiative to chat with me but i am always cold or ignore him.
    He said he's from US and going to transfer to SG for work with the same company he's in (National OilWell Varco).
    He is a scammer who pretend to send a parcel of housing rental contract, then pretends parcel got blocked by SG custom, IRAS, then request for Anti-Laundary and Anti-Terrisom Certificate which need money for the parcel clearance.The property agent (stproperty.sg) with phone number given by him is also fake.The courier company (air_courier@aim.com, +1 205 301 2728) is also faked, which i think is from same person.
    Already make a police report for this, and I wish I can recover back the money and let everyone here knows of this scammer.

  43. Dear all. I Don't know where else I can warn other ladies. Please all ladies beware of the con man Kelvin sng beng Hwee.
    Ladies please be extra careful and he goes by the name of Isaac in tinder and Mathew in Singapore love links and god knows what in others.
    He will tell you sad stories of him self and ask for 'loans' then he will find chances to 'quarrel' and create emotion turmoil and pressure the lady. And when he gets his money which is usually in thousands, he will disappear and block you in watsapp or calls. He frequently changes his number so you won't be able to find him. Please if there are people who are con by him pls stand out because there are a lot of victims as of to date and as no action is taken against him he is still out there trying his act.
    Please beware!
    I have already made a police report against him...

  49. I'm a Carousell seller selling items on a preorder basis and recently a man messaged me on Carousell with his email address and asked me to contact him there. Shortly after, his account got suspended. I have read similar scams online and all of the victims have received a similar message and they proceeded to contact him.

    He will tell you that he would like to buy a huge quantity of your items and will ask you to ship it to his daughter in Thailand or other parts of the world. And he will send you a screenshot of the PayPal message indicating that payment has been made but you have to ship out item first and key in the tracking number before payment will be released to you.

    Luckily for me, I have read it online before I received this message. Please do not fall prey to such scams and be vigilant!

  50. OMG in year 2017 this Kelvin Sng Beng Hwee is still at it.. he has now set up a social enterprise and is married since 2015 Sept to a Ms Tan. He will ask you for sex and a loan. If loan fails he asks u to sign up mobile lines with him. I just stupidly did it yesterday and he has not gone missing on my yet but i m sure he will soon. He does goes on expensive trips overseas like Japan with his "family" and has set up a social enterprise now "helping" ex-inmates. Driving a van now doing courier services. On OKC and Tinder by the nick of jovialkent or something kent. Bloody shitty man uses all sorts of emotions so that you will comply.. be very caution of him.. heard he has used the name Issac too before..
