Singapore Police Force jumps on ‘Career Ladder’ trend but adds anti-scam warning
The Singapore Police Force (SPF) has also jumped on TikTok’s viral “Career Ladder” trend, but with their own anti-scam twist.
SPF does own version of ‘Career Ladder’
Posted on 8 Nov, the clip features SPF Officer Cammy interviewing a chirpy “participant”, Ryan, whose job starts sounding increasingly fishy as the conversation unfolds.
The video began with Officer Cammy singing: “Hope you don’t have to hold your bladder ’cos it’s time for the police ladder.”

A “participant” named Ryan enthusiastically introduced himself, but quickly raised eyebrows when he started describing his “job”.
“What are you into?” Officer Cammy asked, to which Ryan responded: “Money.”
When Cammy guessed that he worked in finance, Ryan replied: “Not exactly.”

He then shared that his role involved “handling people’s money” and “getting them to trust us”.
When Officer Cammy asked if he’s a business owner, Ryan said, “Sort of.”
“We make a lot of calls and give them…exclusive links too,” he described.
By the time he jokes he’d be “mee siam” (meaning to escape in Singlish) if he were a food, the punchline lands: the “career” sounds exactly like a scammer’s.
Public education twist to viral series
The video cleverly mimics Max Klymenko’s viral “Career Ladder” series, where strangers describe what they do for work while standing on a ladder.
In SPF’s version, however, the light-hearted setup became an educational skit that highlighted common scam tactics, such as phishing links and fake investment schemes.
