We have seen an increase in the number of “free tickets” promos on our personal Facebook news feeds recently; 99% of the time these are scams designed to:

• Capture your email so they can spam you with more scams
• Install malware or viruses on your computer

Here’s an example for two “free business class” tickets from KLM Royal Dutch airlines — this is a scam!

Before you click on a promo and give away your information (we recommend this for all “free” promos) check the following:

• Does the promotion sound or look fishy? (In this case, the URL is not the official KLM website).
• Confirm with the providers’ official Facebook or Twitter account to see if there is an active promotion
• Check the providers’ official website

Validate the promotion before clicking!
