We’ve been made aware that a small number of customers have received WhatsApp messages from someone claiming to be “Samir from SYHA,” asking about repairs and requesting photos.

Please be aware: South Yorkshire Housing Association does not use WhatsApp to contact customers and would never request information in this way.

If you receive such a message:

  • Do not respond
  • Report it directly within the WhatsApp app
  • Block the sender

Taking these steps helps protect you and others by preventing further contact and assisting WhatsApp in identifying and removing fraudulent accounts.

Thank you for staying vigilant.
