Description
received email "Hello (my name) Kroger logo Kroger Loyalty Program Answer for Free! You have been chosen to participate in our Loyalty Program for Free! It will take you only a minute to receive this fantastic prize CLICK HERE TO BEGIN Picture of Tupperware modular mates 36 piece set Every Monday we randomly select 20 users by system to take a short online survey. It includes 10 simple questions that can be finished within 30s or less. In this way, we can know our users better and improve our products and services. GET STARTED! IT'S FREE Clicking on email goes to the crazynails site I gave earlier in this form. After answering 10 questions about Kroger next page asks for name/address/phone/email Next page says $4.95 to cover shipping and asks for payment (I think PayPal as well as Credit/Debit were options). Only in tiny tiny print at the bottom of this page does it suggest that you are paying for entry into a sweepstakes that ends January , 2024. No actual end date. I did not see anywhere before this that this was a sweepstakes entry. Text was all about paying for shipping. After lots of pages saying Tupperware was free. I should have looked more closely at URL once I was in the survey - the email reply address went to a legit webpage, and I am a Kroger member, and my name was on it...so it was a well targeted scam. Please stop them!
