The Facebook page “MediaMarkt Returns” is not an official page of the company.

The Facebook page “MediaMarkt Returns” claims to be giving away 50 TV sets that can no longer be sold due to returns and minor damage. The page has only existed since June 29, 2020 and offers neither information about the organizer nor an imprint.

If you want to take part in the supposed competition, you must first like the page and share it. A small special feature: The page can only be viewed by our colleagues based in Germany. But we already know this type of fake Facebook page from countless fake competitions run by data collectors .

Here is MediaMarkt's official Facebook page .

In the end it's about your personal data and data brings money!

Unfortunately, the actual purpose of these sites is limited to one thing: collecting data, selling magazine subscriptions and sending spam emails!

Even if you take part and think to yourself “Oh, if I play along, it won’t hurt anyone” – data always brings money and these sites will continue to exist in the future. Facebook pages that deceive you and make money from your personal data. Even a mere like maintains this type of page and harms you and your friends.

Note : Competitions regularly appear on Facebook and captivate users. They hope for a really big win but in the end they come away empty-handed. In these cases, only the site operator “wins”. We check competitions for their seriousness! This competition is not serious and deceives the participants. It doesn't meet Facebook's criteria and uses fake elements!

Fake Facebook pages repeatedly claim to be giving away expensive kitchen appliances, campers or cars. Finding testers for a brand is also a popular way to attract users. This scam is not new .

Further information about such competitions can be found in our article “This is how fake competitions on Facebook work!" before.
