Read MoreProtect yourself against malware
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.

Further Updates: U.S. Withholding Tax of 10% on Publicly Traded Partnership (PTP) Interest
Further to our earlier notices on the new 10% US Withholding Tax to be imposed on PTP interest, please be informed that due to the complexity of the withholding tax under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 1446(f):
(a) with effect from 27 December 2022, OCBC Securities will cease to accept all Buy orders and transfer-in requests for US PTP securities;* and
(b) with effect from 1 January 2023, OCBC Securities will also cease to accept Sell orders.*
We urge you to review your current holdings with us.
If you are a non-US resident who holds any PTP securities in your portfolio, consider taking any action you deem fit before 1 January 2023. Clients with existing positions in the PTP securities can still continue to hold or transfer-out the positions to other brokers (fees and charges applies).
