PETALING JAYA: Star Media Group Berhad, which publishes The Star print products and online portal, refers to a site misusing The Star's brand identity.
It has come to the Group’s attention that a fraudulent site is impersonating The Star with a fake article.
The fake article carries the headline "Sultan Ibrahim didn't realize the microphone was on. We said goodbye to him forever".
Star Media Group wishes to clarify that the aforementioned social media page and any site linked to it is not affiliated with The Star’s official social media platforms or web presence in any way.
Please do not interact with these scam websites, social media pages or suspicious advertisements, nor join the programmes they are promoting.
The Star – which Reuters named one of the most trusted sources of news in Malaysia – publishes only on its official website thestar.com.my and its official social media channels.
