AirAsia warns of free ticket scam


- Reuters

KUALA LUMPUR: AirAsia Bhd has issued a public warning about a social media post, claiming to offer free flight tickets through an online survey.

The post asks participants to answer several questions to redeem vouchers, the low-cost carrier said in a statement on Monday.

"There is also another scam circulating on Facebook, offering 268 free tickets in conjunction with AirAsia's 28th anniversary.

"Both scams used the AirAsia brand without authorisation and aim to lure the public to participate in it," it added.

The airline said it will not be held liable for any claims pertaining to the false scheme and will not hesitate to take legal action against individuals or groups that organise illegal schemes using the AirAsia brand. - Bernama
