The fake ALDI voucher scam fooling shoppers

ALDI are warning shoppers not to fall for a 40 per cent off coupon that has been doing the rounds on Facebook.

The deal that promised shoppers 40 per cent off everything in store has been outed as a hoax by the German supermarket chain.

Aldi chiefs have told customers the discount, purporting to be valid during the Christmas period, cannot be redeemed in any of its stores.

They also told shoppers not to give away any personal details that are asked for when trying to access the voucher, or take part in the competition linked to the discount.

Aldi are now investigating the suspicious coupon, reports Sunday Express.

A post on the supermarket’s Facebook page says: “We have been notified that there is a hoax 40% off Aldi voucher being circulated online.

“Please be aware that this post is fraudulent and cannot be redeemed in our stores.

“We strongly advise that you do not complete any personal details or enter the competition that is running as part of claiming the voucher”.
