I keep receiving email scams claiming that I have won prizes from ASDA. The fake emails are being used to steal personal information or money. ASDA said they are aware of the email scams and have posted the notice below.

Notice from ASDA Regarding the Prize Scam

There are a number of messages circulating by text messages and emails that are nothing to do with us and may be an attempt to capture your personal details.

Recent messages include supermarket voucher giveaways, prize draws, reminders to collect a package and money off promotions.

Please always read a message carefully before clicking on it and check the link before you enter your details. An official Asda competition or giveaway should link to an Asda website such as asda.com or george.com. Spelling mistakes or grammatical errors are also clues that a post could be a fake.

Unfortunately we have no control over third party websites and can only warn you not to be taken in by them and to warn your friends if they share these posts with you.
