A SURVEY circulating online via social media promising free AirAsia tickets is a hoax, warned the Malaysian budget carrier in a statement yesterday.

The survey, which also asks participants to share the post in order to qualify for the prize of a pair of free air tickets, is not one initiated by the airline.

AirAsia warned in the statement that “this survey is not conducted by the airline or any of its affiliates, and confirm that this is a scam which uses the AirAsia brand without authorisation.”

It added that they are not liable for any claims pertaining to the false scheme and cautions the public against taking part in the ploy.

“AirAsia would like to once again reiterate that it does not enlist third party services in organising activities and any announcements are made via official channels such as credible mass media and our official social media channels at all times,” the statement continued.

“We will not hesitate to take legal action against individuals or groups who organise illegal schemes using the AirAsia brand, and a police report has been lodged with regards to this scam.”
