Infocomm Regulation & Guides

IMDA's regular evaluation of infocomm regulations and guidelines is essential in maintaining alignment with social norms and values and ensuring that IMDA regulations stay current and relevant.

Anti-Scam Measures

To better protect people in Singapore from online scams, IMDA is using a new system for text messages. SMS messages with unregistered Sender IDs will be replaced with the “Likely-SCAM” Sender ID. This serves to warn the recipient that the sender has not registered itself with SMS Sender ID Registry (SSIR) and that the SMS message may potentially be a scam.
