KUALA LUMPUR – Universiti Malaya (UM) has clarified that it did not order 500 meals from local social enterprise Picha Eats as the procurement documents were inconsistent with the institution’s offer letters.

“Universiti Malaya would like to confirm that no work offers were issued to the operator. Documents were also not consistent with contract letters issued by the university.

“We take scams seriously, which not only misuses our trademark and tarnishes the university’s image, but also defrauds the victim. The university is mulling legal action, including lodging a police report,” it said in a statement today.

The university added that management conducts its businesses via the UM Procurement and Payment Management online system.

Further checks can be made via corporate@um.edu.my or calling the hotline at 03-7967 3273.

Earlier, Picha Eats said it had received a scam order from “Universiti Malaya” for a 500-pax event that was supposed to happen today.

By noon, the enterprise managed to sell all of the meals initially prepared for the event. It also lodged a police report on the fraudulent order.

The Picha Project empowers marginalised communities in Malaysia by running a sustainable food catering and delivery business. – June 7, 2024
