The Central Bank of Seychelles (CBS) and the Seychelles Bankers Association (SBA) have joined forces to hold an awareness campaign from October to December to educate the public on how to avoid the pitfalls of fraudulent financial transactions. The two entities revealed in a press conference on Monday that this initiative comes after they noticed an increase in the number of people being scammed. «In recent months there has been a rise in fraudulent financial activities, particularly in internet banking and this is a growing concern for the banker' association as well as the central bank,» said the SBA chairperson, Audrey Pothin. According to their figures, 120 clients have been scammed from the month of January to date. The authorities explained that there is an increase in incidents of phishing and investment fraud, as well as other types of digital fraud, that they suspect originate from international crime syndicates with ties in Seychelles. Phishing is the practice of tricking Internet users through the use of deceptive email messages or websites, into revealing personal or confidential information. Investment scams are where potential scam victims are offered fake investment opportunities, promising high returns with little to no risk. These are done through fake websites, documents, and communications that appear legitimate, convincing them to invest substantial amounts of money. Meanwhile, in the cases the banks recorded, all the customers lost money and Pothin revealed that there were a few where the banks were able to recover some of the funds as they came in to report the fraud in time. The banks' records also show those scammed were aged between 30 to 40 years old and were from lower salary brackets. «When you think that some clients have been robbed of around SCR 100,000 ($ 7,200), this is money that some have taken years to save for,» said Murugan Pillay, a member of the SBA The CBS governor, Caroline Abel, also stressed that «with the evolution that is happening in banking, clients now have to take some of the responsibilities of keeping their bank accounts and details safe.» She said, «In the past when we had an account, we had a bank book and went to the bank for transactions, now our bank accounts are on our computers through internet banking, our mobiles through the many apps and in our purses through cards.» During the awareness campaign, the two institutions will be teaching bank clients what to watch out for when they are doing financial transactions on their Internet banking platforms or mobile banking platforms. Both bodies have agreed that members of the public should not carry out any financial transactions if they are unsure of the sources, and call the relevant institutions for clarification if they are ever in doubt.

SINGAPORE — More than 950,000 Singaporean households in Housing Board flats will receive U-Save and service and conservancy charges (S&CC) rebates in October. The Ministry of Finance (MOF) said in a statement on Sept 30 that the rebates, which are part of the permanent GST Voucher scheme and the Assurance Package, are the third quarterly disbursement for the 2024 financial year. The rebates will help those from lower- and middle-income households cope with goods and services tax (GST) and cost-of-living expenses, said MOF. «On average, this will cover about eight months of utility bills for those living in one- and two-room flats, and about four months of utility bills for those living in three- and four- room flats,» it added. In this round, those living in one-room and two-room HDB flats will get a total of $190 in U-save rebates. People living in three-room flats will get $170 in total, while those in four-room flats will get $150. Five-room HDB households will get $130. Those living in executive or multi-generation flats will receive the least — $110.
SINGAPORE — A teenager slashed his abusive father twice in their Yishun flat after the 47-year-old man taunted him by calling him «ah gua» (Hokkien for transvestite) and challenging him to «chop someone with a knife». When his father, Eddie Seah, left the fifth-floor flat after the initial confrontation, Sylesnar Seah Jie Kai, who was then a 19-year-old student, followed him, armed with two knives. He believed that if he did not kill his father, his father would kill him the following day, the High Court was told on Sept 30. At the lift lobby, the younger Seah repeatedly slashed his father's head and neck with the knives, and the two continued struggling at the staircase landing between the fourth and fifth floor. After his son dropped one of the knives, Eddie Seah picked it up, and approached a fourth-floor unit for help before he collapsed. The younger Seah then lay down near to his father, and waited for the police and paramedics to arrive. The father was pronounced dead at the scene.
SINGAPORE — In a surprising twist, Hin Leong founder Lim Oon Kuin and his two children, Evan Lim Chee Meng and Ms Lim Huey Ching, have agreed to pay US$3.5 billion (S$4.5 billion) to the liquidators of the now-defunct oil trading firm. The High Court on Sept 30 also gave the green light to a consent judgment the Lim family reached with HSBC Holdings, which had sued them and Lim Oon Kuin's personal assistant Serene Seng Hui Choo, for US$85.3 million in damages. This brings to an end a 50-day civil trial of both cases involving the family of oil tycoon Lim Oon Kuin — also known as O.K. Lim — which had been jointly heard in the High Court. «This is an important milestone in the liquidation of Hin Leong, and is a victory that belongs to (its) creditors,» said liquidator Goh Thien Phong. In the judgment reached by both parties, the family will have to pay the sum of US$3.5 billion plus interest at 5.33 per cent per annum — from April 2020 to the date of payment — and costs.
