The police will now have powers to control the bank accounts of stubborn scam victims in Singapore who insist they are not being scammed despite evidence showing otherwise. With the Protection from Scams Act coming into effect on July 1, the police will be allowed to issue restriction orders (ROs) to banks, which will then limit the banking transactions of an individual's accounts. The Act, which was passed in Parliament on Jan 7, will enable the police to better protect scam victims by stopping them from transferring money into other accounts, using ATMs, and accessing credit services. In-person and over-the-counter transactions will also be restricted for them.
- ↑ "Commencement of the Protection From Scams Act". Ministry of Home Affairs. Retrieved 1 July 2025.
The Protection from Scams Act 2025 (the "Act") was passed by Parliament on 7 January 2025 and will come into effect on 1 July 2025. The Act enables the Police to better protect targets of ongoing scams by empowering them to issue Restriction Orders to banks to restrict the banking and credit facilities of the individual, if there is reasonable belief that the individual will make money transfers to scammers, withdraw any money with intention of giving the money to a scammer, or apply for or draw down on any credit facility with the intention of benefitting a scammer.
