SINGAPORE: Two Singaporean men believed to be members of a Cambodia-based scam syndicate will be charged in court on Monday (Nov 17) after they were deported from Cambodia and Thailand, the Singapore Police Force (SPF) said on Sunday.
The two men, aged 27 and 32, are believed to be part of a group of 27 Singaporeans and seven Malaysians wanted by the police for their involvement in government official impersonation scams targeting Singapore victims.
The organised criminal group, operating out of Cambodia’s capital Phnom Penh, is believed to be responsible for at least 438 reported scam cases involving losses of at least S$41 million (US$31.6 million).
The group was disrupted during a joint operation by SPF and the Cambodian National Police (CNP) on Sep 9, 2025. As part of ongoing investigations, the SPF had earlier issued prohibition of disposal orders and seized assets linked to the criminal group.
