FAQs

Scam Call Protect provides pre-emptive protection against scam calls and SMSes. Singtel's mobile- and fixed-line networks help to block scam calls and SMSes before they even reach you through real-time detection, call filtering and more.

 

This scam call protection feature benefits Singtel’s Postpaid, Prepaid, GOMO and Fixed-line customers.

We collaborate with IMDA to fend off scammers who mask or spoof their numbers. Calls and SMSes are filtered and blocked via a constantly-updated blacklist managed by IMDA. Additionally, our SMS firewalls are updated regularly to block messages with potentially harmful URLs. 

 

However, with new threats emerging constantly, it's crucial that we stay vigilant as a community and take the necessary precautions. Here at Singtel, we are working hard to improve our technology to stay ahead of scams.

If you receive a scam call on your phone, please block the phone number on your phone immediately. If you receive a scam phone call or message on a messaging app, blacklist the number by pressing 'Report and Block'. This ensures the app will take down the account. By doing so, you will help stall scammers from targeting more potential victims with that number.

 

You can also call the Anti-Scam Hotline at 1800-722-6688 (Mon–Fri, 9am–5pm) or visit scamalert.sg for more scam-related advice.
