"In response to queries, the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA) said SingCERT has not received reports of malicious QR codes in Singapore."
So not a single case in tens of millions transactions. Seems like no point in posting since it isn't actually a problem in practice.
It is also clear that it is only really a problem for the vendor, who doesn't receive the money, not the customer, who already has the service/product.

- freddie_mercury 8y agoSingapore has been using QR codes for years, not just since Monday.
- Uberphallus 8y agoThe one we're talking about is since Monday. There are others in place, displayed in tablets/screens, dynamically generated and cryptographically secure. This is printed, like the fraud-ridden Chinese codes, so it's vulnerable to the "sticker attack".
