## Featured rationale

The advisory signals that homeowners should verify claimed government affiliations before purchasing property-related services, potentially reducing exposure to misleading commercial offers.

## AI summary

MND clarified that it neither endorsed nor participated in an advertised HDB Hub sales event offering renovation and cleaning packages to homeowners.

## Original article

It has come to our attention that advertisements have been circulating, claiming that MND has endorsed a sales event which will be held at HDB Hub. The event invites renovation and cleaning companies to sell renovation and cleaning packages to homeowners.

According to the advertisements, these companies were asked to donate part of their sales proceeds towards financing projects related to the decluttering of homes impacted by hoarding – falsely claiming that these projects were handled by MND.

We would like to clarify that MND has not endorsed this sales event and is in no way associated with it. MND is also not involved in any commercial activities related to this event.

Members of the public who come across such invitations or advertisements are advised to alert MND by writing to mnd_hq@mnd.gov.sg.

### 公众通告

我们注意到有广告在流传，声称国家发展部（MND）已认可将在建屋发展局中心（HDB Hub）举行的一项销售活动。该活动邀请装修与清洁公司向屋主销售装修及清洁配套。

根据有关广告，这些公司被要求将部分销售收入捐赠，用于资助与清理受囤积物品影响住家相关的项目——并谎称这些项目由国家发展部处理。

我们谨此澄清：国家发展部并未认可此项销售活动，亦与该活动毫无关联。国家发展部亦未参与任何与该活动相关的商业活动。

公众如遇此类邀请或广告，请发电子邮件至 mnd_hq@mnd.gov.sg 向国家发展部举报。
