Singapore orders Meta to implement anti-scam measures or face possible fine
SINGAPORE, Sept 3 (Reuters) – Singapore police have ordered Meta to implement anti-scam measures against advertisements, accounts, profiles and business pages impersonating key government office holders on its social media network Facebook to combat scams, a government minister said.
The company could be fined up to S$1 million ($775,698) if it fails to comply as part of the first such order under the nation’s new Online Criminal Harms Act, which came into force in February 2024.
