Be alert to fake Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) websites

We have observed a recent increase in scams involving fake websites impersonating the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA). Scammers use these sites to trick you into giving up your personal information.

Here's how to recognise these scams:

• Check the website address: Official MHA websites end in .gov.sg. Be wary of sites with unusual domain names like "mhadirectories-1.top".
• Unexpected requests: Be suspicious if you receive unsolicited requests for personal information, especially through a link sent via SMS or email.

If you think you have been affected by this scam, file a police report immediately.
