Sri Lankan woman charged over links to fake bulk orders by 'SAF personnel', man and teen boy arrestedA man, a woman and a teen boy were arrested for their suspected involvement in fake bulk order scams involving the impersonation of the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) personnel.
There have been at least five such cases reported with total losses amounting to at least $32,000 since Sept 4.
The woman, Rajadi Rajasinghe Manamendra Patabadilage Vishwa Madavi, a Sri Lankan on a student pass, was charged on Sept 17 for relinquishing her bank account under the Computer Misuse Act.
On Sept 14, the Ministry of Defence warned the public about fraudulent bulk orders made by individuals impersonating SAF personnel.
In a Facebook post, it said it was aware of seven such cases, none of which involved actual SAF personnel, and that police reports had been lodged.
