Aldi Bonus Box Scam Robocalls and Text Messages
Aldi Bonus Box Scam Robocalls and Text Messages

The website alibonusbox.com (also operating as alibonus.com) is a confirmed phishing scam. The site is actively used in automated text message and robocall scams. The fraud works by sending messages claiming you have been selected by a major brand—such as the "Aldi Shopper benefits team"—to receive a complimentary gift, like an "assorted meat box" or a holiday food package. It then directs you to visit alibonusbox.com to claim the reward.

Aldi Shopper Scam Message

"Hi this is Lauren with the Aldi Shopper benefits team your phone number was selected to receive a complimentary Aldi assorted meat box before our Thanksgiving grocery allocation closest to claim your holiday box for home delivery just visit www.ali bonus.com again that's www.alibonusbox.com"

How the Scam Works

  • The Bait: You receive an unexpected text or automated call promising free groceries or a high-value holiday box.
  • The Phishing Link: Clicking the link takes you to a lookalike website designed to mimic trusted brands.
  • The Trap: The site will ask for personal information, delivery details, and credit card numbers (often under the guise of paying a small "shipping fee").

What You Should Do

  • Do not click the link or visit the website.
  • Do not provide personal or financial data if you have already opened the page.
  • Block the sender and report the text message as junk/spam on your phone.
  • Verify independently: If you think a company like Aldi is actually giving away prizes, check their official verified website or customer service line directly. Never trust links sent via unsolicited text messages.
