Market Basket Warns Customers of Facebook Scam
New England-based supermarket chain Market Basket is warning the public of a fake Facebook profile using a store promotion to try and scam customers out of sensitive information.
According to a post on the official Market Basket Facebook page, there is a “newly created and unauthorized Facebook profile” using the Market Basket name and logo to contact customers posing as the official page.
“This (fraudulent) page has been sending friend requests to our customers and has been asking for sensitive information as a requirement to enter our Drink Up, Work Out giveaway,” Market Basket wrote.
