Receive a Free $250 Gift Voucher from Kroger – Fake Facebook

**Please find the friend that you saw sharing the link to the Kroger Gift Card scam, and post a link to this page for them to read and to share to the person they saw it on.** If you google “way back machine” you will find the internet archive that has a back up of what this page used to tell you. I myself will no longer pay the bandwidth it takes to help facebook.
Facebook post says “Receive a Free $250 Gift Voucher” and has a Kroger logo. Looks legit right?
It is fake.

If you clicked it, log into Facebook and change your password now. You have just been bitten by a scam. This scam is not the doing of Kroger. You have no reason to be mad at Kroger for someone else’s hoax.
Here is Kroger trying to get a handle on the situation.
Kroger is aware and trying to stop it.
To prove this Kroger notice is a hoax, just hit refresh when you are on that page and watch the “remaining vouchers” counter start back over at 173.
Another thing to notice is the “comments” on that page on the left hand side “hansja” his comment says it happened 26 minutes ago.. and that comment stays with that count.
Most this is an advertising company that has crummy tactics and it is likely they are just getting their like and share counts up really high so that when the website changes it’s home page design and logo, it will look like a legit website, and will show in your friend feed to your friends as a page you like. Which in turn will scam your friends by this 100% hoax.

Strawberry Meth Hoax

Facebook users are passing around a fake warning about “Strawberry meth” also “Strawberry quick”.

strawberry_meth

The first sign that you need to look for when believing these types of posts, is “does this person allow you to comment?”
If no, then there is a good chance the image is fake. Much like the public announcements of missing persons. No contact no communication? Fake…..
But the biggest clue in this image that says it is fake, is it is supposed to be a warning to families from a hospital, yet it has emoticon frowny faces.

Yes, police found drugs that were dyed to look like candy, but no the meth does not smell like strawberries. No the candy looking meth is not being passed around schools.

This is completely false and is used to get someone’s score up on Klout.

This image is FAKE and a lame hoax that is feeding off of parental fears and phobias. Also note Snopes

Do us all a favor and share this where you see the hoax being shared and ask that person to share it also.

“ALL PARENTS PLEEEASE BE AWARE!! …There is a drug going around the schools …Its known as Strawberry Quick …or strawberry meth …it looks like pop rocks kids eat & also smells like strawberries & also comes in other flavors like chocolate ect … Pleeease tell your children not to take candy from anyone even a class mate because this drug that looks like pop rocks is actually crystal meth rocked up with strawberry flavor & can kill them :’( …PLEASE REPOST!!! so all parents are aware of this …Thank You! This is happening all over the country” …. :(
