"Outdoor Play House Giveaway" Facebook Like Farming Scams

Facebook users, be aware of fake Facebook pages or posts created by cyber criminals that claim that you can like their pages or posts, or comment the word "Done" for a chance to win an Outdoor Play House. The fake pages or posts are a like-farming scam. The scam gathers up thousands of likes, comments or shares to promote unwanted products or trick Facebook users into disclosing their personal information on fraudulent survey websites. And, the prizes offered do not exist and those who participate have no chance whatsoever of winning anything at all.
