Aside from the gov.sg SMS sender ID, the official gov.sg broadcast channels on Telegram and WhatsApp remain active but are used exclusively for mass marketing and informational purposes. Be aware that scammers may attempt to impersonate gov.sg on these platforms.

To verify the authenticity of a gov.sg channel on WhatsApp or Telegram, check for a blue verification tick next to the account name. Genuine, verified accounts will have this tick, while fake or spoof accounts will not. For further confirmation, click into the profile to check for the blue tick.
