Forged social security invitation to commit fraud

On October 28, Ho Chi Minh City Social Insurance issued a warning about the situation of forging social insurance documents and papers to defraud people.

Accordingly, recently, the Social Insurance of Ho Chi Minh City has recorded many cases of subjects taking advantage of the form of forging documents, invitations, seals and signatures of leaders of the Social Insurance agency to commit fraud, appropriating personal information and assets of people. Notably, some of the forged documents were designed sophisticatedly, using fonts, layouts and red seals similar to the real administrative documents of the Social Insurance agency, making it easy for people to be confused.

Recently, another "Invitation Letter" with a red stamp and a fake signature of a Social Security leader has appeared. The document states that it is based on "Decree 164, 188-2025" and invites people to the Social Security agency to "receive support for health insurance premiums and 50% reimbursement of medical examination and treatment costs due to the impact of Typhoon Yagi". This fake "Invitation Letter" also requires bringing a chip-embedded ID card, health insurance records and providing the "file code of the Ministry of Health's information portal". This is a clear sign of illegal personal data collection. In addition, the use of fake documents to defraud has made many people lose their vigilance.

Fake documents to defraud people

The HCM City Social Security Agency affirms that it does not issue any invitations in the above form. The Social Security Agency also does not ask people to provide personal information via strange phone numbers.

Ho Chi Minh City Social Insurance recommends that people absolutely do not provide personal data to any individual or organization of unknown origin or impersonating the Social Insurance. When receiving a document with the name and seal of the Social Insurance, it is necessary to carefully check the administrative information, legal basis, and compare it with the official website of Ho Chi Minh City Social Insurance at https://tphcm.baohiemxahoi.gov.vn.

When in doubt about the authenticity of the document, people should directly contact the Social Security Office of their place of residence or call center 1900.9068 for verification.

To ensure safety, Ho Chi Minh City Social Insurance recommends that participants proactively check and look up information on the official website of Ho Chi Minh City Social Insurance at: tphcm.baohiemxahoi.gov.vn.
