Baselift IG competition

Got a message asking me to 'register' to claim my prize, and give a credit card number.  Looks very dodgy to me.  Is this a genuine company?

Lots of companies running competitions on facebook and instagram at the moment are falling victim to fake pages created to look like the original. 

Do not register. Do not give any details. Report the account, let the proper company know then block the dud account

If you look closely at the account that has sent you a message you will probably see a spelling mistake  or similar in their handle

Also looking at the competition post it says it will be drawn on 19th April - we aren't even there yet  so they would not be announcing winners

The competition I entered closed on 13 April and was for £200 Zara vouchers + beauty products.  they seem to post regular competitions.
