Phishing Scam Impersonation Scam
I received a call on May 9th, 2023, at 08:53 am informing me about a charge of SGD4k on my UOB Credit card ending with #4983.

I informed the caller that I do not own a UOB credit card and was then told that the card was issued under my NRIC. I requested to reject the charge and the card that I do not owe, but I was informed that my NRIC information was necessary for verification. Without thinking, I disclosed and confirmed my NRIC and name. Then, I realised it was a scam.
