⚠️Fake websites can look real, so make sure to stay alert when claiming your CDC vouchers! *Here’s how you can claim your CDC vouchers safely*: ➡️ Visit go.gov.sg/cdcv ➡️ No smartphone or Singpass? Head to your nearest CC for assistance. 🚨 Watch out as scammers are taking advantage by spreading fake ads, messages and emails with phishing links. These links lead to scam sites that steal your personal and banking info — like bank details, credit card numbers, SingPass logins, and OTPs. *How to stay scam-smart*: ✅ Official updates only come from government agencies via SMS, social media, or sites like govbenefits.gov.sg ✅ Government SMSes are always sent from the gov.sg SMS Sender ID ✅ Legit government websites and emails always include “.gov.sg” ⛔ Never click on links from unsolicited messages or emails. *Unsure if something’s a scam?
