Facebook Free Airline Ticket Scams Run Rampant on Facebook

Posted on December 16 2018

While the lure of free money from Microsoft may finally have been put to rest, digital scams for freebies aren’t going anywhere for the foreseeable future. These days, it’s the lure of free travel that runs rampant, turning otherwise reasonable internet citizens into spammers. The problem has become so out of control, many major airlines have had to release official statements warning users that the scam is not endorsed in any way by the airline. In the past two weeks alone, such statements have appeared from many of Asia’s top carriers, including Air Asia, Emirates, Philippines Airlines (PAL) and Singapore Airlines.
