Free Amazon Echo Dot / $25 Amazon Voucher / 3 Audible Credits @ Amazon ANZ Facebook (First 250 Per Day, Name Starting 'ALE')

611

Update: Finished for 10/2/2021. Play again 8AM 11/2/2021.

I saw this ad on Facebook this morning and won a free echo dot so decided to share it with all. It involves playing a trivia game via their messenger chatbot.

It's an easy process. However, it only works for people with their Facebook name starting "ALE", so you'd need to make a new FB account if your name doesnt.

Once you get past this stage, just follow their prompts. I had to answer a series of 4 trivia questions (about Alexa). Then they asked me for my email, number and postal address.

Confirmed legit. Official Amazon AU link to promo -> scroll down to the bottom where it says "join me on Facebook". It links to the Amazon Alexa ANZ Facebook page.

    Only around 300 people like that page, you sure it's not a fake page?

    • its not a fake page….

      Amazon is currently celebrating their Alexa anniversary, with 15% off echo dot promo banner on the mobile app

      • Do you have an external linking pointing to this Facebook page?

        • +2

          Yea it’s in the link of this post lol

          • @skido: Found the external link from amazon.com.au so it's legit.

            If you go amazon.com.au then click the banner, down the bottom there is a "Join me on Facebook" link that takes you to the facebook page.

    The site it takes you to isn’t ‘secure’ and Alexa’s birthday is in Nov. What anniversary is this? Not saying it’s not real but seems quite dodgy.

    • Alexa's anniversary since being in Australia

    • 3 year anniversary of Echo first being sold in Australia… a bit good of trivia (ha) i guess, had to look it up.

  • +14

    Competition to win something shouldn't be posted here.

    • ok mods can unpublish it if they wish

    • I'd argue it's still highlighting the 15% off 🤷‍♂️

        Whats interesting is - one of the questions was - When was Alexa introduced in Australia? When I asked Alexa, the answer came back as .. Ummm, I dont know that one :-) . Had to take help of this post to know it was 2018 :-)
