'Do Take Care When Using the Government School Assistance Funds' - Fiji Police

The public is being urged to exercise caution when using Government school assistance funds to avoid falling victim to scams and fraud.

Parents are advised not to send children to withdraw funds or entrust money to strangers.

Additionally, they should avoid responding to text messages, Viber, WhatsApp, or Facebook requests asking for money.

Authorities also warn against engaging in get-rich-quick schemes, as opportunists may take advantage of the situation.

Families are encouraged to spend the funds wisely and prioritize their children’s educational needs.
