SINGAPORE - Four men and one woman were arrested for their suspected involvement in providing payment services without licence, the police said in a statement on Aug 7.
Many migrant workers were spotted in the queue on the six days that ST visited GR.iD mall in May and June. They appeared to be following the instructions of some “agents”, who declined to comment when approached by ST. They did not appear to be directly affiliated to Worldcoin. The police said on Aug 7 that they received reports and started investigations into five people, aged between 27 and 52.
The police said they will take action against individuals or entities involved in providing payment services without a licence to minimise the risk of money laundering, terrorism financing or other criminal activity.
