SINGAPORE: A total of 39 people were arrested over their suspected roles in job and phishing scams involving more than S$20 million, said the police on Sunday (Nov 28).
The 35 men and four women, aged between 16 and 65, were nabbed during an islandwide anti-scam enforcement operation between Nov 22 and 26.
Preliminary investigations revealed that the suspects had allegedly sold their bank accounts or handed over their Singpass credentials to criminal syndicates.
The individuals involved were promised as much as S$5,000 for each bank account sold or S$400 for each set of Singpass credentials sold. However, most of them did not receive the promised fees.
