Summary: What should be the quasinormal modes associated with a spacetime that contains a naked singularity instead of a black hole? In the present work we address this problem by studying the scattering of scalar fields on a curved background described by a Reissner-Nordström spacetime with \(q>m\). We show that there is a qualitative difference between cases with \(1<q^2/m^2\lesssim 9/8\) and cases with \(q^2/m^2\gtrsim 9/8\). We discuss the necessary conditions for the well-posedness of the problem, and present results for the low \(l\) and large \(l\) limit.
