When a 76-year-old woman went to Hougang Community Club to get her SG60 vouchers printed in July, she realised that she had not yet claimed the January and May 2025 tranches of her Community Development Council (CDC) vouchers.
However, the vouchers had all already been claimed and spent, the staff told her.
Each Singaporean household received S$300 and S$500 worth of CDC vouchers in January and May, respectively, adding up to S$800 in total.
The woman, surnamed Shen (transliteration), recounted this alarming discovery to Shin Min Daily News.
Her son, who lives with her, has denied using the vouchers despite her asking him about it multiple times.
Suspecting that someone had impersonated her to claim her CDC vouchers, Shen subsequently made a police report.
In response to Mothership's queries, the police confirmed that a report was lodged.
Mainly used in Hougang
Shen, who runs a mixed rice stall at People's Park Food Centre, told Shin Min that she does not know how to use a mobile phone well and has always asked community centre staff to help her print CDC vouchers in the past.
Before July, she had not claimed or used any of her vouchers that year.
The staff at Hougang Community Club said the January vouchers were redeemed in the afternoon on Jan. 12, and the May vouchers were redeemed in the afternoon on May 18.
Shen was working at her stall at both these times, and could not have been present to redeem the vouchers, she told Shin Min.
With her permission, a Shin Min reporter checked the transaction history on the CDC voucher website.
They found that the January vouchers had been spent by Mar. 29, while the May vouchers were last used on Jul. 14.
According to Shin Min, the vouchers were mainly used in the Hougang area, including at a Sheng Siong supermarket, fruit and vegetable stores, and a few mini marts.
Shen was puzzled to learn this, as she has typically used cash and never CDC vouchers when making purchases in her neighbourhood.
"The S$800 was livelihood support from the government," she said. "It's very tough running a hawker stall. I have to stand for close to 16 hours every day, and am often only able to leave around midnight. I hope to be able to find out who fraudulently claimed my vouchers."
