  • They are now to enter the competition you need to make a purchase. I will unlike the page as they were trying it on, they never had 5 to give away and I doubt the first winner was genuine. I did think it funny that they never acknowledged their win the page. I was going to report the page but they have deleted all the old posts concerning the competition!

    On their website, the photo of the second fake satisfied customer "Josh Clark" was taken from here:

    The Ontario Ministry of Community and Social Services website.

    What do you report them under is it spam/fake?

    Do you think it's worth letting The Ontario Ministry know that their photo is being used?

    I'm sure they would love to know. :)

    The company on Facebook are committing copyright infringement to start with by using photos from elsewhere- unless they have paid for the image legitimately, or have permission from the image owner.

    Somehow, I doubt that very much...
