Stay alert for SMSes from scammers posing as OCBC Securities. Our SMSes are always sent from 'OCBCSec' or 'OCBC Bank' and never include links.

Look out – especially if you have an Android device.

New variants of Android malware (‘malicious software’) allow scammers to control your device remotely or steal sensitive information like login credentials or card details. This means that scammers can log in to your account and make fraudulent transactions or transfers without your knowledge.

Android malware may be found in apps available in the Google Play Store. They could also be disguised as ‘helpful apps’ in Android Package Kit (APK) files that you may be tricked into downloading. By downloading them or giving access to certain functions, you may unwittingly allow scammers to take control of your device.

The Police and the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore have released an advisory on malware. Read more.

Here is how you can protect yourself against malware:

If you believe you have fallen prey to such scams, please call our OCBC Securities’ hotline immediately at 1800 338 8688 (or +65 6338 8688 if you are overseas) – press option 9 to report fraud.

As scams constantly evolve, please stay vigilant at all times.

Scammers are now sending phishing SMSes to obtain your Singpass login credentials.

If you click on the links in such SMSes, you will be taken to a spoofed Singpass login page and asked to key in your Singpass ID and password.

Thereafter, you may be directed to a spoofed login page and prompted to enter your credentials and One-Time Password (OTP). The scammers will then use these to fraudulently apply for credit cards or open banking or trading accounts.

Please take heed when asked for your Singpass login credentials. Do not let your guard down.
