HEALTHCARE app BookDoc warned today that a letter with its name on it that purports to offer Covid-19 vaccination at RM100 per jab was fake. 

A spokesman said while the company did offer on-site or walk-in tests for the virus, it had not issued the letter. 

“The post (that is going viral) or the letter is not from our side. We are still investigating the letter that has gone viral,” the person, who declined to be named, told The Malaysian Insight when contacted. 

The letter sported a BookDoc letterhead and claimed the government had appointed the company to serve as a service provider in the national Covid-19 immunisation programme. 

The document contained the offer of the AstraZeneca vaccine at RM100 and was directed at employers who wished to have their workers inoculated. It was signed by BookDoc founder Chevy Beh Yen San. Attached to the missive were photos of him with Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin and the coordinating minister of the vaccination campaign Khairy Jamaluddin.

Beh has lodged a police report on the misuse of his and the company’s name and his photos.

The report sighted by The Malaysian Insight was filed yesterday at the Damansara police station in Petaling Jaya.

“I believe someone has misused my photos and signature for their own agenda and to malign my company,” Beh stated in the report. – June 1, 2021.
