Phishing Alert

6 October 2015

Important security warning about phishing attempts targeting dental professionals. Learn to identify and protect yourself from fraudulent emails and scams impersonating SDC.

Dear Registered Dentist,

The Singapore Dental Council has received feedback from dentists who have received calls (foreign telephone number and caller with a foreign accent) requesting them for, or to update their particulars (specifically, their email address).

Please be informed that Council has not made this request. Any update of particulars should be submitted by the dental professional personally through the online Professional Registration System (PRS).

We would like to remind all members to stay vigilant and guard against nuisance and fraudulent requests from unauthorised persons .

Please feel free to contact SDC’s Secretariat at 6355 2400/6355 2401 or email at enquiries@dentalcouncil.gov.sg should you need any assistance.
