SASSA WARNS OF DOUBLE GRANT PAYMENT FAKE NEWS

SASSA has warned its beneficiaries about circulating fake news regarding a double grant payment in August 2025.

The fake news claimed that SASSA will pay the grant on Monday, 12 August 2025, citing that the double payment was implemented to provide additional support to beneficiaries.

The agency alerted its beneficiaries only to take information from their official SASSA social media pages, which are Facebook (SASSA News), X (@OfficialSASSA), TikTok (@officialsassanews), WhatsApp Channel (SASSA_Official), YouTube (South African Social Security Agency) and on Instagram (sassa10_za).
