Fraudsters use Biedronka store chain for phishing data
Lost24
You can find advertising “Biedronka: Take everything you want in 10 minutes” on Biedronka Polska profile. Both the profile and the post have nothing to do with the Biedronka store chain.
According to Dobre Programy, many people have been deceived by the advertising slogan above.
Post includes a link, where the victim is asked to complete a Google survey, which allegedly represents the first stage of the competition. Following the first stage the qualification for next stage is supposed to take place.
In the second stage, the victim learns that, in fact, it is no longer a contest for “Take everything you want in 10 minutes” but instead a 500 PLN voucher. In order to participate in the competition, you must provide a set of personal data, such as name, address, phone number, and consent to use the data for advertising purposes. The organizer of the competition mentions that there’s only a single prize and it awaits submissions until the end of this year.
Beware, as the only goal of this competition is phishing personal data, which as you might expect, will go directly to telemarketers.
