AirAsia warns of ticket scams


- AFP

PETALING JAYA: AirAsia is warning the public of a scam using its brand name on social media.

In the scam, free tickets are offered through an online survey and participants are directed to the website www.airasia.com-2017-givea.us where they are required to answer a few questions to redeem vouchers.

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

In a press statement released yesterday, AirAsia stressed that the two social media posts are scams.

“The public is strongly advised to ignore those posts and not click on any link or provide any personal information, as AirAsia is not held liable for any claims pertaining to the false schemes,” said the statement.

All official announcement will be made through AirAsia’s official channel and credible mass media, it added.

Should the public encounter any suspected scams or would like clarification, please access www.facebook.com/airasia, www.twitter.com/airasia or www.airasia.com/ask.
