[Scam Alert – doctors to note] Fake International Conference on Public Health
10 May 2024
A fake international conference on public health 2024 in Amsterdam has been circulated to some medical professionals. Doctors are warned to do their due diligence and verify details of such events before signing up.
Dear Doctors
It was brought to the Singapore Medical Council’s (SMC) attention that some medical practitioners might have received emails publicising a medical conference – “International Conference on Public Health 2024”, scheduled to take place from 27 to 29 May 2024 in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
The Ministry of Home Affairs has alerted the Ministry of Health that there is no such public health conference, and the conference website ‘icpublichealth’ has been marked with a Deceptive Website Warning.
