Trader Joes Scam: Fake Voucher, Gift Card, Coupon, and Discount Offerings

Trader Joe's do not offer coupons, discounts, or gift cards online. Therefore, online users who have seen fake posts like the below on social media or other websites are asked not to follow the instructions in them. This is because, on April 15, Trader Joe’s posted an announcement regarding misleading gift cards, online coupons, and discount offerings floating around the internet. Trader Joe’s stated that they have zero association with the organizations using Trader Joe’s name.
