Scamming - Fraud
If you receive an email which appears to be from Lowe's, claiming you can win a DeWalt Power Station by completing surveys, delete and do not follow the instructions in it. This is because the email is a scam being sent by scammers attempting to trick potential victims into visiting spam or phishing websites that trick online users into buying unwanted services or products, or steal their personal information.

I got to accredit card and stopped right there anytime you see free or a little ant it's a scam
I received the same email except it was for Harbor Freight Tools. It was a survey to receive a DeWalt Power Station. I looked at the comments and all of them said they got the product and no problems detected. But I just didn't feel comfortable putting my bank info in. The only way I'd do this would be buying a loadable Visa card and use a PO box to receive the product as well as not putting in real personal information. But to be safe.. it's probably best to stay clear of these sites.
I keep getting these at least weekly - How can I stop them all?
Well I took the survey I paid the $5.95 I like to know where my battery charger is
Almost did it, decided to see if it was a scam. It was
same here. thought if this is free from Lowe, why ask for a master card number, why not bill the shipping on the lowes card.. gone in a flash.....
