Beware of Fake TikTok Account Impersonating UNHCR Malaysia

Wednesday / 29 October 2025

UNHCR Malaysia does not have a TikTok account. All TikTok accounts claiming to be from UNHCR are fake 

We have been made aware of a fraudulent TikTok @rohingya.edu2 and Facebook (Rohingya News Malaysia) accounts falsely claiming to represent UNHCR Malaysia. These accounts are not affiliated with UNHCR in any way and have been misleading the public by sharing photos from refugee communities, UNHCR staff, and NGO partners to create a false representation of UNHCR.

 

These accounts are all fake. The individual(s) behind these accounts have no connection to UNHCR and are not authorized to assist with registration, Refugee Status Determination (RSD), or resettlement processes. Please do not share your personal information or make any payments to them. 

How to Report the Fake Account 

We urge you to report this account directly to TikTok using the following resources: 

 

Important Reminders 

  • All UNHCR services are FREE, including UNHCR documents, registration, refugee status determination (RSD) and resettlement. 
  • Be cautious of anyone claiming they can help you with resettlement or other UNHCR processes in exchange for money or services. 
  • If you encounter individuals making such claims, please report them to: Police CCID Scam Response Centre: 03-26101559 / 03-26101599 
  • UNHCR: Submit a report using this form

 

Reporting suspicious activity will not affect your case. Your UNHCR document will not be cancelled, and your case will not be delayed or closed for reporting fraud.
