Singapore plans new legislation imposing tougher penalties for money mule offences, including removing lenient treatment for juvenile offenders, as part of a wider crackdown on scam syndicates.

Why now: Singapore is announcing a legal crackdown on scam-related money mule activity, including juveniles.
