Today, October 2, Ukrainian Facebook users began mass posting information about the drawing of free tickets from the airline "International Airlines of Ukraine". This information turned out to be a fake, as UIA reported on its official Facebook page.

"Dear passengers, today on the Internet was launched a viral, false advertising that the UIA airline is playing free tickets. Information is absolutely untrue, "it was informed..

The press service of the company stressed that the site on which users were offered to take part in the action is in no way connected with UIA.

"Information on current promotions and proposals is published only on the official website of the UIA and in the Facebook social network," UIA stressed..

In the tape, the link to this "share" is as follows:.

"There are only 332 tickets left, so hurry up! "- the credulous users were motivated by speculators.

At the same time, it was necessary to answer the following questions:.

1) Have you ever traveled with us?.

2) Why did you choose UIA?.

3) Are you satisfied with the UIA service?.



As if the user did not answer the questions, he automatically became a participant in the action after sharing the link with his subscribers and leaving a comment "Thank you" with hashtag # UIA ".

Experts in the field of IT security say that, most likely, intruders want to deceive users with the sending of paid SMS. After the user has shared a link on his page, scammers get access to his personal data, including phone number. Further, they can ask to send his message to the paid number, after which his account will be written off a certain amount of money.
