To date, the total value of Singaporean assets seized or restricted in connection with this case has exceeded 500 million SGD (approximately 2.7 billion RMB). Analysts point out that Singapore has a highly developed digital financial environment and a large high-net-worth population, making it also a hotbed for scams. Locally, scams have evolved into crimes supported by artificial intelligence and blockchain, with total losses surpassing 1.1 billion SGD in 2024. (Jiemian News)
