I think all road-savvy and up-to-date drivers have heard of the phenomenon known as "accident touters". For those who are not familiar with this term, they are basically people who cause car accidents or wait for car accidents to occur, before rushing forward to offer their workshop services. Shake my head. Recently, such an incident was sighted on the PIE. Watch the video here: Wow, such kind-hearted people. Or is it too good to be true? In the video, we spotted several people quickly approaching after the accident occurred, with one man even trying to CROSS the busy lanes to get to the cars on the other side. Something smells fishy! What do we think? It seems all too suspicious. The waiting cars, the quick-to-approach men... Something isn't right. We concluded, this must be a case of accident touting. Netizens have their say This comment says it all. We have the full picture here and it isn't pretty. People will go to such lengths just to earn money. Another netizen agreed with the comment above. Thank god for car cams and our existing highway cameras. Meanwhile, another two were discussing how to avoid situations similar to this: One commentator weighed in with very good advice to stick to. More helpful advice here. Lastly, one netizen reminded us to give benefit of doubt... Yes, that could be true. Sadly, the world is not as kind and innocent as we used to think it to be... Be on your guard We hope the unfortunate driver caught up in this concocted scenario understood what the touters were trying to do, and did not engage them for his services. Please don't drag other people down with you just for your personal gain. It is a nasty thing to do. Beware of these accident touts! ========= Be the first to get the latest road/ COE news, and get first dibs on exclusive promos and giveaways in our Telegram SGCM Community. Join us today!

Source: https://mothership.sg/2021/12/scammer-singapore-police-change-looks/ Do you ever feel like your voice isn't heard? Well, don't feel that way. Because an alleged scammer targeting people in Singapore has certainly heard you and has changed his style according to your timely feedback of looking too fake. This development on the criminal front was brought to light on Facebook on Dec. 8. What happened previously? An alleged scammer, who was seen dressed to look like a personnel from the Singapore Police Force, appeared to have been improving his appearance to look more like the real deal. This was after he was called out in late November for being lazy in not wearing the correct cap, while exposing his chest hair, which is highly unprofessional because the Singapore Police Force will never allow that. Also, the alleged scammer of south Asian descent, was accused of cold calling people on this island in an attempt to make his callers part with their money using nothing but his words and appearance, yet did not work hard enough at lowering people's guard by maintaining his credibility first. Improved appearance But a week of insults and feedback has since done him some good. Previously, the alleged scammer's cap displayed a recognisable New York Yankees logo beside a faux SPF logo -- a low quality simulation. In his latest makeover, Johnny Scammer donned a dark cap devoid of logos. He also buttoned up his shirt to hide his unkempt chest hair and stop them from peeking out from underneath the fabric, as it was his previous untidy appearance that gave him away as a low-cost cosplayer. His eyebrows also appeared trimmed now. To add a touch of officialdom, the alleged scammer even put on a blue lanyard to show he can exude authority because anyone in a position of power owns one at some point while floating up the hierarchy to reach the higher rungs of authority. However, another photo of the scammer has emerged, which showed that he might still have his work cut out for him. Because his cap now has the Adidas logo. Could be different scammer But, of course, the other scammer and this current one might not even be the same person, and both just happen to share the same modus operandi. If they are different, apologies are in order for associating the current alleged scammer with the less effortful alleged scammer previously. Regardless, this is the phone number on caller ID of the better groomed scammer.

ok, it';s those typical phone call scammer, saying i won 2nd prize, blablabla... and i've told him nicely im not interested and dont call back initially, then they keep calling insisting i explain why im not interested and i F him upside down asking him not to call again and hung up.... for th past 2-3 days, the keep calling back from time to time and i just ignore/cancel it without answering and at time, they my phone can show some 21 missed call.... damn those f***er... anyone kena before and how to stop them from calling?.... just wonder can i divert their call to 999 thru call diverting?...btw, call barring need to pay?........

How is their service

Just for FYI and sharing....gotten this message via web sms.

The suspect scammer, Goh Chin Soo, did not show up in court to answer the 20+ charges against him. It's reported in ST. Maybe he chabut already leaving his aunt to lose the $40,000 bail...
