As an appointed Trusted Contact, you play an important role in helping to protect your appointer from potential scams. You will receive a copy of the notifications sent to your appointer when they make important transactions and updates to their CPF account.

It is crucial for Trusted Contacts to spot and flag any unusual or unexpected activities in your appointer’s CPF account. As such, you would need to maintain both a Singapore-registered mobile number and email address with CPF Board, so that you can receive your appointers’ notifications via both channels and take timely action.
