Fake “6600 UAH for Ukrainians born before 2008”, Zelenskyi approved a decree on payments

On the telegram channels of the Ukrainian segment, information is being disseminated that “an hour ago, Zelenskyi approved a decree to resume payments to Ukrainians”. Allegedly, all Ukrainians born before 2008 can receive 6,600 hryvnias in one payment from all international organizations. To receive payments, you need to register in your region - select the region in which the person lives, and follow the link. Also in the message there is a video that talks about obtaining assistance from international organizations. It's fake.

According to the journalists of the “Bez Brekhni” (No Lie) project, the video referred to by the authors of the telegram channels is taken out of context and does not explain the essence of the message. Also, there is no mention of Zelenskyi’s decree on the website of the Office of the President. Moreover, such a document cannot exist, because the President of Ukraine does not have the authority to appoint payments from international organizations. Another important point: in Ukraine, the head of state does not approve decrees, but signs them; in such messages, the date of the “approval” of the decree is always indicated, but it is not here. Questions arise why payments are provided to Ukrainians born exactly before 2008 as this is the entire adult population of Ukraine. By following the links in the message, a person gets to the pages of channels with the names “Good evening, we are from Zhytomyr, Rivne, Dnipro …”.

Parasitizing on the topic of help, unscrupulous administrators of telegram channels are trying to attract new subscribers. Information about state payments and the procedure for receiving them is contained exclusively on the official websites of state institutions. Earlier, Detector Media wrote about how Ukrainian telegram channels speculate on the topic of air raid alert.
