Scam Details

Received a phone call from HSBSC (+6564702669) that told me there was fraudulent transactions of $140k on yesterday & $120k today. It was picked up by OCBC for suspected fraud transactions on my current account. I told the person I have no HSBSC account but he insisted I have a current a/c obtained legally. He was very convincing telling me his name was Louise Chow from HSBSC Jurong br, it a serious fraud case to deal with. I spoke with him a while, he said the transaction already went through only the $120k was stopped. He asked me to confirm that i didn’t make the transactions. He said they already reported to cad and need me to also make a report. He said he will redirect his call to cad for me, a link he said established with banks to report fraud. I said no and I would come to the branch to meet him. I went to HSBSC Jurong branch within an hour, there i was told by the bank staff, the branch staff informed me that there was no such person and I have no current account with HSBSC. Normally these +65 scam calls are either recorded or foreign accent callers, this is one sound like ordinary Singaporean, that’s why I got caught into believing he could be real.
