The Singapore Police Force are aware that some members of the public have been receiving unknown missed calls, starting with the numbers "999X XXXX", on their mobile phones. When return calls were made, these members of public would be connected to the Police emergency hotline at "999" instead. Members of the public are advised to ignore such calls from unknown origins, where Caller ID spoofing technology may be used to mask the actual phone number and display a different number.
They may call the Police hotline at 1800-255 0000 or submit information online at www.police.gov.sg/iwitness should they have any related information, and dial ‘999’ only if urgent Police assistance is required.
