New Scam Targets Australians with Fake Cash Rewards
A new Facebook scam is deceiving Australians with promises of a $5000 cash prize. Using simulated videos of popular YouTube stars, scammers lure victims into downloading a fraudulent app. The app features a fake game designed to appear winnable, showcasing fabricated winnings to mislead users.
Participants are guided through steps that ultimately require depositing money into the app. These deposits are unrecoverable, leaving victims without their funds or the promised prize.
Stay vigilant against such scams, and always verify the authenticity of apps before downloading. Protect yourself by avoiding too-good-to-be-true offers online.
