Super Pharm comes out today (Thursday) with a stern warning about a sting message, after it was sent to many people and allegedly offered to win NIS 2,000.
A statement issued by Super Pharm states that "in the last day we have witnessed a malicious message impersonating the Super Pharm website and simulating a page that in the end can allegedly be won in the amount of NIS 2,000. We emphasize that this is advertising fraud and impersonation, .

In a message sent to many, it was written "Congratulations! A 45th anniversary celebration for Super Pharm. Through the questionnaire, you will have the opportunity to receive a gift card worth 2,000 shekels."
Then questions appear.
For example, the first question out of four questions is - "Do you know Super Pharm?".
It should be noted that many companies in the economy suffer from thermal notifications.
Shufersal has experienced such messages several times, as well as the Rami Levy chain, Cellcom, McDonald's Adidas and more.
In order not to fall into such scams, it is important to pay attention to a few things.
Idan Abramov, from the service and support department at the information security company ESET Israel, says that "the rule of thumb that will help everyone not to fall into the trap is to understand that gifts worth thousands of shekels do not circulate online, nor do they arrive in a WhatsApp message. The companies will not be in a hurry to give us gifts worth thousands of shekels, and certainly not so easily. "
He adds that "Collaborating with this type of scam can lead to various damages, including transferring credit card details, bouncing annoying advertisements that serve the attackers for monetary gain, downloading battery-hungry apps and allowing access to device storage that also allows access to personal data such as photos and files. A message of this kind, it is worth deleting it and certainly not opening it, not cooperating or spreading it to friends. "
