Maybank Singapore prevents loss of S$1.16m across 17 cases

One case sees a service manager prevent a S$37,000 scam.

Maybank Singapore, with help from the Singapore Police Force, revealed that it has prevented the loss of over S$1.16m across 17 cases between March 2023 and March 2024, the bank revealed.

In one case, Maybank Jurong Point branch service manager Brenda Tan prevented a customer from being scammed S$37,000, the bank said in a press release.

The customer was nearly scammed from text messages supposedly from her husband. Tan made the decision to escalate the case to Maybank’s Digital Banking Fraud Team. This then helped prevent the customer from losing their savings, Maybank said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
