The grocery stores are one of the few constants in the corona pandemic.
Apparently, fraudsters want to take advantage of this.
They target Aldi customers.
Munich - In the
Corona crisis
, negative headline follows negative headline:
Infection
numbers are still far too high
.
Tougher restrictions on daily life.
Lockdown
extension
after lockdown extension.
These
vaccine
bottlenecks in
.
And no solutions for the many problems.
We long for glimpses of light that make
life appear more colorful and perfect
again.
And if it's just the news that you
've
been
drawn as the winner
.
Whatever.
Even the
trip to the sun
will be possible again at some point.
Aldi becomes a victim of fraudsters: customers are suggested profit - discount giant goes on the offensive
With all the joy about the positive notification, it is easy to overlook the fact that you
did not take part
in the said
competition
.
This is exactly what
scammers
who are currently
abusing the
Aldi brand
aim
to dupe unsuspecting citizens.
That is why the
discount giant
warns
urgently on its homepage against taking the wrongdoers on the glue.
A customer information sheet states: “There are currently more and more
fake competitions
.” Notifications would be distributed
by email or telephone
.
For this reason, customers contacted by suspected crooks are asked "not to respond to the requests (...), not
to
click
any
links contained
therein and
not to
enter
any personal information
or give them on the phone".
In these apparently not uncommon cases,
distrust
is appropriate.
“
We have no connection
with these
competitions
,” Aldi continues.
If customers have
any
questions,
customer service is available
at the email address kundendialog@aldi-nord.de or the
contact form
.

Various salads from the Aldi range were recalled due to the threat of health damage.
The group participates in the “Veganuary” initiative - we explain what is behind it.
Does Aldi have the fastest cash registers in the world?
Then the branches would be right on trend.
