There is an offer for a free pizza cutter from Original Presto's Pizza
*http://www.facebook.com/pages/Prestos-Pizza/294816017273462?sk=app_190322544333196

So why is this a fake?

1) You can submit the form without entering any info.
2) They just joined Facebook on Tuesday May 8

This is a real business but it looks like someone made a fake fan page.

I called the West New York, NJ location at 201-861-2000 and the employee there contacted the owner who said he does not know anything of this promotion.

Another fake from this place - "free apron"  (scroll up to see our findings and why it's fake)

What's even more interesting is the same dropbox account is used to house images on all of these fake freebies!  That indicates that the same phisher is doing all of these fake offers, to steal your info and sell to spammers... plus they have popups, so they're hoping you fill out the form and they'll get paid.

Free Head Massager from Virginia Beach Massage
Free Set of LancrOne Cosmetic Brushes
Free Nail & Pedicure Kit from United Foam
Free Aloe Vera Sample on Facebook
Free Soap Dispenser from Birdsall Bath
Free Pizza Cutter From Original Presto's Pizza

Find out all the info by searching the dropbox account number (76503990) in this forum.

Another fake from this place - "free pasta server"  (scroll up to see our findings and why it's fake)
*https://www.facebook.com/PrestosPizza/app_203351739677351

Plus, after you submit the form (even blank/without info), a pop up offer opens in a new window.

This is because they are hoping you will complete the ad offer, earning them money.

Thanks Marilou A. for the update.

apparently not giving away freebies has gone so well, they're now NOT giving away a lobster oven mitt

Scroll up to read why this will not come. It's fake.



Thanks The Daily Goodie Bag!

Another fake from this one. This time it's a "free wine corkscrew opener". Scroll up to see why these will NOT come.

Thanks Bethany S.

One more fake to add to the list. A free knife sharpener sure would be nice, but see above to learn why it WON'T come. :/
