Disclosure Fraudsters lure Ukrainians with payments from the UN

On social networks unknown persons spread information that all Ukrainians can receive assistance in the amount of 8,800 hryvnias per person from the UN. In particular, as the fact-checkers of the Brekhunets (Lier) project write, a screenshot of a message is being distributed by the network, which shows that the person allegedly received a transfer from the UN World Food Program. The person is allegedly informed that he received 8,800 hryvnias. Fraudsters convince: absolutely all Ukrainians will be able to get help. However, as the fact checker writes, the authors of the mailing lists mislead Ukrainians because not all residents of Ukraine can receive such help.

Yes, the WFP program from the UN, which helps Ukrainians in war, really exists. However, the Ministry of Social Policy of Ukraine clearly defines who can receive such assistance. In particular, these are internally displaced persons. And the maximum amount of assistance that can be received from the UN per family is 6,660 hryvnias, not 8,880 at all.
