Outline:
Facebook Page that calls itself “Big Wheels” claims that you can win a variety of valuable prizes including bags of cash, cars, utility vehicles, and even refrigerators just by liking the Page, liking and sharing promotional posts, and commenting “done”.
Analysis:
The Facebook Page is fraudulent. It is not giving away any prizes of any kind. Those who participate have zero chance of winning anything at all.
The fake Facebook Page is designed simply to gather large numbers of Facebook likes. Once the bogus Page has collected a great many new likes, it can then be used to launch survey scams or other types of fraudulent activity. Or, it may be sold on the black market to other scammers.
Unfortunately, this is just one of many similar like-farming scams on Facebook. New scam Pages appear on Facebook everyday. Please do not help the scammers who create such Facebook Pages by liking, sharing, and commenting.
