    Looks dodgy to me, especially step 3

  • nubzy on 12/12/2011 - 21:26

    Yes, definately a scam. Just another reason I choose to be Facebook free.

      …There are scams hiding everywhere though, whether it be in the newspaper, over email, telephone, or even people you know

    I thought it was pretty obvious that its a scam, even the website they use is a big hint. Still some of my friends fell for it lol

  • berger on 12/12/2011 - 21:36

    JB Hifi official FB page is warning about this.

    use common sense, nothing is ever for free

  • illusionarybreeze on 12/12/2011 - 21:39

    It's like that Coles voucher thing that was going around recently.

    In any case, does the title of the event even correlate with the description? lol

    There's a Dick Smith one going around as well. Facebook can suck a big one at times!

    Yeah I figured as much, it got me for about 1.5 seconds though, luckily i did not click on the link im sure thats a virus waiting to infest.

  • mrhorseham on 13/12/2011 - 01:41

    I thought it was obvious it was fake?..just from clicking the link it says only 1209 left! then click it again it starts from 1209 once more..
