If you’re active on Facebook, you would have probably seen your friends share this H&M offer that sounds just too good to be true. All you have to do is share the page and add a comment in order to redeem a US$500 gift card from the Swedish label. Doesn’t it sound way too simple?
Well, H&M has confirmed that it is indeed an online scam and that the label is not at all affiliated with the site, contest or company running the offer.
Seems like this is a scam tactic performed by using many popular brands to lure vulnerable people on social media to promote their own websites.
This is also not the first time that this has happened as we are occasionally hit by fake Instagram accounts claiming to give out free vouchers by popular brands once a certain number of followers are gained.
Be wary, all you social media addicts!
