SINGAPORE, Nov 7 — A Singaporean man allegedly involved in a Cambodian-based scam syndicate was deported from Vietnam and arrested by the Singapore Police Force (SPF) upon arrival at Changi Airport on Friday (November 6).
Lam Yong Yan, 27, had been detained by Vietnam’s Ministry of Public Security for immigration offences since November 19, 2025.
He was deported from the country on Friday after investigations were completed.
Lam is believed to be a member of the crime ring dismantled by the SPF and Cambodian police in September 2025, which orchestrated Government official impersonation scams targeted at fellow Singaporeans.
