A Case Study Of a Corporation Scam with Famous Criminal Lawyer Subhas Anandan Introduction With a GDP per capita of $87,000, Singapore is likely to be one of the world’s most targeted places for scammers looking to earn a quick buck.

They may be less active (and thus, less savvy) on social media, and may lack the necessary information to be able to identify a scam that other people may instantly recognise. Very often, the same older folks may be flushed with disposable cash from their retirement and are thus easy prey for scammers looking to find victims to “invest” in their get-rich-quick schemes.
