The Singapore's Land Transport Authority (LTA) said a fake press release on a newly-revamped toll hike at the Johor Causeway is being circulated online. The statement boasting the agency's official logo and letter head stated the revised 'five-fold toll hike'.
The statement indicated that the new hike is supposed to come into effect on Sept 15. The fake statement has gone viral less than a day after it was shared on social media.
An official with the LTA has clarified that the agency did not release the document carrying both the current and revised rates for motorists entering and exiting the republic.
An English daily reported, the Singapore government is investigating the matter.
