Outline:
Facebook Page calling itself “Mitsubishi 2016” claims that, “for the first time in Facebook History”, you can win a Mitsubishi Mirage just by liking the Page, sharing the prize promotion post, and adding a comment specifying what colour car you would like should you win.
Analysis:
The Facebook Page is fraudulent. It has no connection to Mitsubishi and those who participate have no chance whatsoever of winning a Mirage. The Page is not giving away any cars.
The fake Facebook Page is a scam designed to accumulate large numbers of Facebook likes as quickly as possible. Once the Page has collected a large number of likes, it can then be reused to launch other types of scam. Alternatively, it might be sold on the black market to other scammers.
This version attempts to add some credibility to its claims by linking to a press release about the results of a genuine Mitsubishi promotion in which a customer of the company won a car. And, the post uses an image stolen from this genuine promotion, which took place several years ago and has no connection to the current scam.
Like-farming scams like this one are very common.
