A post currently being shared on Facebook claims that US-based airline, JetBlue is giving two free tickets to everyone who shares a link. Supposedly, the giveaway is to celebrate the airline’s anniversary.
The post includes an image that appears to show two JetBlue flight tickets.
However, the post is not associated with JetBlue in any way and those who participate have no chance whatsoever of getting any free flight tickets.
In fact, the post is a typical Facebook giveaway scam designed to trick you into divulging your personal details on bogus websites. There have been several versions of the JetBlue ticket giveaway scam in recent years.
The company posted the following message in response to a very similar 2019 version of the same scam:
