IKEA has issued a message warning of fraudsters pretending to be their brand in an attempt to persuade them to act so that they lose money.

IKEA warns against attempts to extort personal data or other forms of fraud, i.e. by persuading people to send Premium SMS messages or participate in lotteries, surveys and other forms of competition. Fraudsters send out messages by email or via social networks informing about the possibility of winning coupons and other IKEA-related prizes.

IKEA emphasizes that all competitions are always published on the IKEA.pl website or on official IKEA profiles on social networks.
Customers are asked not to send any SMS to confirm participation in the competition, as they may be actually a premium rate SMS.
