After completing the surveys, scammers would ask victims to scan a Singpass QR code sent via messaging apps such as WhatsApp, claiming that it was part of the bank’s verification process to retrieve their survey results and enable payment for the completed surveys.

By scanning this Singpass QR code and authenticating it on their Singpass app, victims were tricked into authorising the use of MyInfo data to open bank accounts controlled by the scammers.

These bank accounts are then abused by scammers to commit crimes or launder the proceeds of crime.

Singapore should stop all use of QR code until it can be made to be safe for use.  

Even PA s qr code is also questionable.

How to be made safe?
