43% of overall crimes in Singapore were cybercrimes, according to the latest report<\/a> published by the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore in 2020. This trend is only set to rise from there. Many cybercrimes have innate ties to money laundering and its related frauds or scams, so it is essential to keep yourself and your business safe. Cybercriminals have gotten more advanced as technology speeds towards the bleeding edge. In Singapore at least, cybercriminals have been taking advantage of COVID contact tracing<\/a> apps and home technical support to trick their users into divulging their bank account log-in credentials.<\/p> Through our commitment to fighting cybercrime, money laundering & fraud, Fazz Business (formerly Xfers) has achieved one of the highest honours in Singapore: receiving the Minister of Home Affairs National Day Award 2021.<\/p> The Minister of Home Affairs National Day Award 2021 is one of the most prestigious national awards in Singapore.
