STR 2024 Scam : Don’t Fall For The RM1,000 Offer!
This is yet another scam circulating on WhatsApp and Telegram, and here are reasons why…
Fact #1 : STR 2024 Is Only Given Quarterly
First, let me just point out that the 2024 STR (Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah) program is genuine. However, it is restricted to the hardcore poor, and is paid out quarterly.
| STR 2024 | Application Period | Payment Date |
| Phase 1 | 1 to 30 Nov 2023 | 29 January 2024 |
| Phase 2 | 1 Dec 2023 to 29 Feb 2024 | April 2024 |
| Phase 3 | 1 March to 30 June 2024 | August 2024 |
| Phase 4 | 1 July to 30 Sept. 2024 | November 2024 |
In short – you won’t get the money on a monthly basis, as the scam websites are claiming.
Fact #2 : STR 2024 Scam Targets Your Data + Telegram Account
The real STR (Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah) website will only ask you for your MyKad or user ID to check your STR 2024 status.
The scam websites, on the other hand, will ask you to submit your full name, and your mobile number.
They will send an OTP to your Telegram account, and ask you to key in the OTP to their website. This will allow them to hijack and take over your Telegram account.
To protect your Telegram account from such hijacking, please make sure you turn on Two-Step Verification!
Even if you don’t have a Telegram account, the scammers now have access to your full name and mobile number, which they can use in future scam attacks.

Fact #3 : List Of Successful Applicants Is Fake
To convince you that their offer is genuine, the scam websites often show a scrolling list of successful applicants – each one receiving RM1,000. That’s a fake list.
If you check the source code, you can see that the scammer merely created a manual list of fake names. Here is a small segment with the fake details highlighted in bold, to show you what I mean:

<div class=”h2″>Berjaya RM 1.000,00</div>
</div>
</div>
Fact #4 : STR 2024 Does Not Give RM1,000 Per Month
To help the hardcore poor handle the high inflation in 2024, the Malaysia Ministry of Finance announced an increase in the amount of STR cash aid.
However, even with the increased STR 2024 cash aid, you won’t receive RM1,000 per month. That’s just insane. Here is what the government is giving for STR 2024, in quarterly payments:
| Qualifying Categories |
STR 2024 Cash Aid |
| Household Income ≤ RM2,500 |
No Children : RM1,000 1-2 Children : RM1,500 3-4 Children : RM2,000 ≥5 Children : RM2,500 |
| Household Income RM2,500 – RM5,000 |
No Children : RM500 1-2 Children : RM750 3-4 Children : RM1,000 ≥5 Children : RM1,250 |
| Senior (Single) ≤ RM5,000 |
RM600 |
| Single ≤ RM2,500 |
RM350 |
