Aldi Free £85 Voucher Scam-Fake Coupon Doing The Rounds
“A fake £85 Aldi voucher (as seen in the attached photo) is being shared widely on Facebook and Twitter. The coupon is really designed to steal your personal details. A fake £85 Aldi voucher designed to steal shoppers’ information is being widely shared on social media. Victims are asked to click on a link and then provide certain personal details before they can print off the fake coupon. They are also asked to share the voucher on Facebook or Twitter so as to keep the scam circulating.
Aldi has been inundated with queries about whether the vouchers are valid or not. Those who click on the links are taken to a fake ‘survey’ which asks for personal details. One giveaway is that the website’s address is ‘aldi-reward’, rather then Aldi’s official website Aldi.co.uk (click on the image to expand). Aldi has stated and I quote, “We can confirm that this is not an official Aldi voucher.
It is a fraudulent offer that cannot be redeemed in our stores, and we strongly advise that you do not complete any personal details. Please rest assured that this is currently being fully investigated.”
It goes without saying, keep an eye out for this Aldi Free £85 Voucher Scam. It is never nice to be fleeced at any time of the year. Even more so though then at Christmas. Stay vigilant folks.
