Food voucher rumours clarified

March 5, 2026

The Labour & Welfare Bureau today clarified that information circulating online alleging that the Government would distribute half-price food vouchers to the elderly is completely false. 

 

Noting that such fake information is circulating online, the bureau said it has reported the matter to the relevant social media platform and reserves the right to pursue legal action.

 

The bureau also urged senior citizens not to trust any suspicious websites or believe unknown and misleading messages.

 

Those who suspect that they have fallen victim to any fraudulent acts should contact Police.
