A new internet scam is circulating, in which an email or text message purporting to be from Alfamart offers gift cards for up to PhP 7,000. All the victim has to do is complete a survey and register in order to “win” the prize.

Alfamart Philippines, on the other hand, categorically denies ever running such a promotion and advises customers not to participate in the phony survey. According to Alfamart Philippines Merchandising and Marketing Manager Cecille Sy, “we have received reports from numerous worried customers that they have received internet links to an Alfamart survey and raffle.” “Please be aware that such a promotion does not exist, and that clicking on those links may expose you to a potential fraud in which your data or cash may be compromised,” she added.

The shady link is disseminated to random persons via email or text messages. The link is also not on Alfamart's official website, but it purports to be a survey campaign for the "Alfamart 30th Anniversary Celebration," with a prize pool of PhP 7,000 in Alfamart gift cards.

Alfamart is now looking into the source of the erroneous promotion. “We strongly advise all of our customers not to click on any questionable links provided to them via email or SMS pretending to be from Alfamart,” Sy stated. She further reiterated that all official Alfamart announcements and promos are exclusively uploaded or distributed through their official website and Facebook accounts, respectively, http://www.alfamart.com.ph and www.facebook.com/AlfamartPHOfficial.

“Our official in-store promotions are currently running, and you can check them out on our website or social media pages,” Sy explained. She said, "We always have more in store for the communities we serve."
