We are currently receiving numerous inquiries about an Instagram channel that supposedly comes from “TUI”!
This channel, which was only published 3 days ago, on September 9th, 2018, and already has almost 50,000 followers, is an alleged channel from “TUI”. This Instagram channel is looking for hotel testers and bloggers. From September 20th, various hotel testers will supposedly be selected from among all the followers.
This is this channel on Instagram
In addition, TUI also confirms to us what we also suspected. The reference to the “Tui.com” website, which can be found on the Instagram channel mentioned, only serves to make the fake channel more credible.
Nobody here should become a TUI hotel tester or blogger!
Then what is the point of this Instagram channel?
We already know similar phenomena from various Facebook pages and events. Fake pages, fake events and fake channels on Instagram are published on a certain topic and thousands of fans and followers are collected. If you have enough together, then these types of pages and channels are SOLD, usually to other companies that are looking for “travel-loving” users.
Conclusion
According to information from TUI, the mentioned Instagram channel “tuihoteltester” is a fake channel that does not come from TUI. This was confirmed to us in writing by TUI Germany and TUI Austria. You should stay away from this channel. It is highly likely that the entire channel, as well as the associated followers, will ultimately be sold on to advertising companies.
