Impersonation Scam

A call from 68645723 was received at 11:22 am 31mar 2020. An automated voice message was telling me i have been summoned by the singapore high court.

I press "9". Then i waited for a few rings then a guy in english answered me. "singapore high court how can i help".

I told him i received a call as per the voice message. He told me to give the case number. I said i dont have and he ask me to provide my full name and nric number. At that time i was already double checking contact info the high court and thus he was hearing me type on my keyboard. Then he drop the call.

I tried calling back the number but as per singtel "the number is not available"

I called afterwards at singapore high court to check if the call was legit. But they say they only give summon by registered mail or email, thus i got a scam call.
