JPJ says new car purchase incentive scheme a hoax

Posted in Cars, Local News / By /

jpj rebate fake rumour

Scam alert, this concerning rebates apparently being offered via the Road Transport Department (JPJ) to incentify new vehicle purchases.

The department issued a statement today regarding the matter, where it has been circulating through social media postings and whatsapp messages that rebates are supposedly being offered to encourage purchases of new vehicles.

It stated there was no truth behind these claims whatsoever, and that it has never implemented such an incentive scheme as alluded to in these messages and posts. The department advised the public not to fall for such hoaxes, and to question the veracity of such messages should they receive them.

    The first thing every social media user should know nowadays is not to trust what they read online especially if it is the forwarded kind. Some are idiotic, a few are harmless but many are hooks to get into our pockets.

    I seriously don’t understand our dear Malaysians. Don’t we have better things to do than spreading hoaxes and lies? This culture is getting more and more disturbing. Lucky thing we have some credible websites like paultan to verify stuff like petrol hikes/price reduction etc…
