Singapore General Hospital Warns Against Phone Scams Requesting Money Transfers

Singapore General Hospital (SGH) has alerted the public to potential scam attempts where individuals might impersonate hospital representatives and request money transfers via phone calls.

The hospital has stressed that it will never ask patients or the public for money transfers over the phone or through any other communication channels. These types of scams have become more prevalent and often target vulnerable individuals.

If someone contacts you requesting money transfers in the name of SGH, it is crucial to be skeptical. SGH urges anyone in a suspicious situation to contact the authorities immediately.
