A rather carelessly cobbled together page on Facebook wants users to believe that they are looking for testers for Schogetten chocolate.

A site with the imaginative name “Chocolate” posts here:

“Answer questions and get a big box from Schotgetten!”

If you click on the link, you will be taken to a page (also carelessly designed) with various questions. It doesn't matter what answers you give, you are always of the select testers who are allowed to reveal their data.

You may have thought that the candidate search was organized directly by Ludwig Chocolate GmbH, which is looking for testers (" we need your help "), but on the next page you will find out that this is not the case.

“Ludwig Chocolate GmbH & Co. KG is neither the organizer nor sponsor of the competition and has no business relationship with 7sections GmbH. The organizer of this competition is 7sections GmbH. “

It remains to be seen whether there is actually any profit. However, the data is forwarded to 89 (!) companies that can be viewed in the “sponsor list”. In the future, you will be contacted by these sponsors by telephone, email and post.

To be fair, it is also possible to take part in this competition without giving consent for advertising. Then you send your data by email to “7 Sections GmbH”, a company that makes its money by collecting data and gave the impression in advance that it was an official search for testers. Not a good idea, in our opinion.

Conclusion

This is not an official competition or tester search by Ludwig Chocolate GmbH, but rather a campaign by a company that specializes in collecting and passing on data. So you should think carefully about whether it's worth hoping for a chocolate package worth €100 if you're bombarded with phone calls and spam emails in return.
