About This Video

In this episode of The Rishi Report, I dig into the SG Gov scam exercise—aka the moment when Singapore collectively got a reminder that scammers don’t need your money… they just need your attention for five seconds. I talk through what these exercises are trying to test (and what they accidentally reveal), how people actually react when an “official” message hits their phone, and why the real weakness isn’t technology—it’s our very human habit of panicking first and thinking later. I also zoom out into the bigger Singapore story: trust. We’re a society trained to take government comms seriously, which is great—until scammers learn to cosplay credibility better than your average corporate email signature. My takeaway is simple: treat urgency like a red flag, verify through official channels, and don’t let embarrassment stop you from reporting it. If this exercise made you feel annoyed, good—that irritation is the point. The goal isn’t to catch you out; it’s to train your reflexes before a real scam tries to speedrun your brain.
