Tiong Falsified a Termination Letter and WhatsApp Messages to Claim Job Loss

Tiong Shi Lin falsified a termination letter from her new employer, Assurance Technology, and intentionally omitted crucial employment information in her application for the Covid-19 Support Grant. She also presented screenshots of WhatsApp messages with her former supervisor to suggest her previous employment had ended, further supporting her false claim of being jobless. These fabricated documents were used to deceive the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) into disbursing S$4,000 in grants.
Forged Termination Letter from New Employer

Tiong created a false termination letter from Assurance Technology, dating it August 17 and stating her employment was to cease on September 14 due to manpower cuts. To accomplish this, she accessed a template termination letter from the company's shared human resources folder on her company-issued laptop and forged her boss's signature on the document. This letter was submitted as part of her fourth application for the Covid-19 Support Grant when the second application window opened in October.
Manipulated CPF Statement

In her second application for the grant, Tiong intentionally excluded her May 2020 Central Provident Fund (CPF) statement. This omission was significant because her CPF statement would have clearly shown her employment and contributions from Assurance Technology, the firm where she had started working two months after her previous termination. By withholding this document, she aimed to conceal her new employment status from the MSF.
Fabricated WhatsApp Evidence

To further support her claim of job loss, Tiong provided screenshots of WhatsApp messages exchanged with her former supervisor. These messages were presented as evidence to demonstrate that her employment with TVH Singapore had been terminated. The MSF initially approved her application after cross-referencing her termination with her former supervisor.
