Airlines send out warnings on phishing scams

Within the span of a week, three airlines have sent out scam alerts about surveys falsely advertising free air tickets as prizes.

Singapore Airlines said on its Facebook page that there’ve been contests, emails and calls that claim to be Singapore Airlines offering free air tickets, before requesting personal data.


The statement read: “We advise customers to exercise discretion when revealing personal data to unverified sources. Singapore Airlines also wishes to advise customers to be cautious of social media posts and phishing websites that appear similar to our official website singaporeair.com.”

Thai Airways also clarified in a statement that it has no connections with the scam website that asked readers to answer a questionnaire for a chance to win a free ticket with the airline.

AirAsia warned of a similar survey circulating on social media offering 268 free tickets in conjunction with AirAsia’s 28th anniversary.
