Hey guys

Someone is scamming your customers by posting a fake page and stealing your posts and videos to claim it's the official page.

When they click like they have to enter a mobile number and it signs them up to a subscription service

Just letting you know in case you can shut them down and avoid complaints

Page is called Kmart AU

If you need screen shots I have them your wall just won't let me attach :)

And, Kmart responded saying the following:

Kmart Australia: "Hey Ashley, thanks for getting in touch with us. It is a scam and we have reported it to Facebook. We appreciate you taking the time to inform us though! Have a great day, Bree"
