Just got a friend request from "Pets Love Scruffs" on facebook. Obviously this isn't really them, as they're a page not a person ... so if you do get any friend requests, especially over the advents (and especially from Pets Love Scruffs) then it's not really them, and they'll no doubt PM you at some point telling you won something but they need £2 for postage or something.
If you're unsure click through to their facebook page and check what's in the URL of your browser looks correct.
(ie this Pets love scruffs one had ida.zuraida.106 at the end of the url where you would expect it to say "Petslovescruffs" or something like that.

I got one yesterday from Gnaw-Chocolate when the official page is Gnaw Chocolate. I reported it to FB for being a fake profile and they messaged back saying it doesn't go against any of our Community Standards! It's really annoying they won't do anything about scams like that.Wins in 2023 - 35
