Straits Times is really 3rd class journalism. Scam Shield can be fake, OTP can be by- passed and setting transaction limit can also be reset by scammers.

Why do you think Jo Teo needs to give money to SPH (now SMT)?
3rd world reporting standards, biased journalism are the main reasons.
Oh wait, the annual bail out is funded by tax payers

I didn't find the Scam Shield useful...I uninstalled it .
More like an action by the authorities that they are doing something to avert scams.

Do what I do. Respond to all unsolicited offers to make money, buy cheap stuff with your choicest vulgarities and include solicitations for bbbj.
This will usually stop them in the tracks, at most they respond with vulgarities but that’s it
