Egypt’s Agriculture Ministry Renews Warning Against Fake Online Food Sellers

Egypt’s Ministry of Agriculture and Land Reclamation has renewed its warning to citizens about fake pages and accounts on social media, stressing that it does not sell food products online.

The ministry urged consumers not to be drawn in by these accounts and to use its official outlets when buying its products.

The warning distinguishes the ministry’s official sales channels from online pages that may falsely present themselves as linked to it. An account claiming to offer ministry food products online should not be treated as an authorised seller.

The ministry’s message to shoppers is to deal through official outlets rather than rely on social media claims when making purchases.
