KULAI: A call to the 997 hotline for the National Scam Response Centre (NSRC) under the police will be treated as a police report, eliminating the need for scam victims to lodge separate reports at a police station, says Teo Nie Ching.
The Deputy Communications Minister also said the 997 hotline would operate 24-hours a day from September to improve assistance for victims amid a rising trend of online scams.
