Bhai,
Fortunately, the Govt agencies did not approve my tandoori chicken concept.
Otherwise, I would have suffered a big loss due to the Covid pandemic.
As what you would exclaim : HENG arh.

Bhai,
Correct, but SDIC liability :
the total amount of insured deposits is then covered up to S$75,000.
KNN KNN KNN so final ans is insured 75k or 250k ?
KNN
Bhai,
You are better splitting them to 3 banks :
e.g. : DBS, OCBC, UOB, and/0r Bank of India, Bank of China ?

Bhai,
As above,
split 60K to 70K into 3 major Local banks.
Then my uncle will need to have account in almost all banks in sg

Only waste half an hour to open new accounts.

Bhai,
I received lots of scammers' emails, Sms, WhatsApp, etc too.
Just Ignore and Delete them away.
Young couple with less financial commitments each save $1k monthly.
Why not?
Now they're trying to claim back from the bank saying it's the bank's negligence...
Who was the pig racing with? Or was the pig chasing u?
step by step analysis of the scam if the banking security was not compromised :
1. Victim click on a link and leedirected to fake ocbc website
2. Victim entered userid and password keystroke leecorded by scammer end
3. Victim entered sms otp and keystroke also leecorded by scammer end
4. Scammer used the collected information to login to the real website and took over control of their account.
5. That means not necessarily the money is inside savings account I.e they can also terminate a fix leeposit and flow the money back to saving account thereafter scammer can change the dailee transfer leemit and transfer the money to an oversea account.
Possible scenario
Scammer just anyhow mass sent sms to a wide group of sinkies including those that doesn't have ocbc account.
If this is the case bank should be able to know which oversea account the money has been transferred to.
Things will be more complicated if the banking system was compromised and if this is the case bank should be liable.

Step 3 need to leecorrect
After victim entered the userid and password the scammer needs to quicklee enter it in the real website. But the otp will be sent to the victim that means victim leeceived the otp and entered it and collected by the scammer to proceed to quicklee entering the otp before it expires.
From here my uncle think is not that ocbc doesn't have the overseas leeceipent account it just that it is not easy to know which/who's transactions were leegitimate and which is not as my uncle also think the scammer transferred out to various cuntries and various account. Also in order the catch the culprits will leequire many cooperation from overseas counterparts which my uncle think the bank doesn't want to get involve.
Interim conclusion from my uncle is sinkie motto = you die is your business
