IN TODAY's world, receiving unexpected offers can be both exciting and suspicious, especially when they claim to come from reputable organisations.
Recently, some individuals have been surprised to find scholarship offer letters from Majlis Amanah Rakyat (Mara) in their mail, despite not applying for any such aid.
Is it true that these unsolicited scholarship offer letters from Mara are legitimate?
Verdict:
FALSE
Mara has clarified that unsolicited scholarship offer letters titled "Surat Tawaran Biasiswa Pendidikan Yayasan Anak Syarikat Mara Berhad" are not legitimate.
These letters have been sent to individuals who did not apply for any loan or scholarship, and Mara has no connection to these offers.
Mara advises the public to be cautious and not engage with any such offers that attempt to deceive.
The organisation has warned that legal action will be taken against those misusing the Mara name for personal gain.
For accurate information, Mara encourages people to visit their official website at www.mara.gov.my, follow their social media pages on Facebook and Instagram, or contact the Mara Call Centre at 03-2613 2000.
