At least 10 cases involving phishing scams with total losses of at least $24,000 have been reported in the past two weeks, said the police on Tuesday (Feb 10). In this scam variant, Singaporeans travelling to Malaysia would receive an SMS purporting to be from the Land Transport Authority (LTA) about unpaid vehicle tolls. They would receive the SMS after their mobile phones connect to Malaysia's telecommunications network for roaming.The SMS is sent from LTA's former official sender ID named «LTA», which was decommissioned on July 1, 2024 and is no longer in use.Victims are prompted to click on a link to pay the supposedly unpaid tolls. The link redirects victims to a phishing site where they are asked for their bank card details. Victims only realise they have been scammed when unauthorised transactions are made to unknown merchants using their cards.
