Soliciting donations
The post, which has been circulated on social media, features Tan's campaign poster and a message purportedly written by Tan.
"My campaign team advised me that many supporters wish to make a donation towards the cost of my campaign for the presidential election. This is to show their support for Tan Kin Lian," the post reads.
"I welcome donation of S$10 or more (up to S$9,999) to the campaign."
A Paynow QR code and UEN number — allegedly belonging to individuals known as "Tan Kok Liang" and "Kim Tian" — are also shown in the post.
