Web site warns of voucher text fraud that asks people to fill out fake formsBy Huang Chao-hsiang and Jake Chung / Staff reporter, with staff writerFact-checking Web site MyGoPen yesterday warned of scams that ask people to give up personal information by filling out fake forms for the government’s Triple Stimulus Voucher program. Pre-ordering, online and at convenience stores, started on Wednesday for the vouchers, which can be used from Wednesday next week.

The Web site said there three flaws in the text that make it easily identifiable as fraudulent, such as in the Mandarin name of the voucher program. The text uses the character chuan (卷), whereas the official government title uses chuan (券), MyGoPen said.
