Watch out for GST Voucher (GSTV) scams
Scammers have been exploiting GSTV payouts as bait to trick victims.
In this variant, scammers impersonate government officials and send phishing messages containing malicious links, claiming that victims are eligible for GSTV payouts.
Victims are prompted to enter their personal details. Scammers then use the compromised information to take over their Telegram accounts, which are subsequently used to send phishing links to their contacts or add them to fake investment scheme groups.
⚠️Remember
Eligible citizens who have previously signed up for the GSTV scheme will automatically receive the payments.
Protect yourself:
✅ All government SMSes are sent from the gov.sg sender ID.
❌ Do not reply, click any links, or provide personal details to unverified sender.
🔗Visit official website at govbenefits.gov.sg for details on GSTV payout.
