"Another fake promo has been making rounds in the social media site Facebook about free ticket giveaways from the Philippine flag carrier, Philippine Airlines.  The fake post says anyone could win 2 out of 268 free tickets as an anniversary giveaway from PAL. It looks like the image shown above. If you click the image, it will redirect you to a page that looks like this.  As you can see, based on the website it used, it is not the official website of PAL. It says www.tt291ma.us. Clicking further on the site will bring you here. A page where it will ask you to type a certain message and share it to your wall.    It even has a comment section with over 80,000 comments to make it look legit and lure people to Share it and make them believe that they can actually win, but the truth is, you won't because it's a hoax.     The PAL management has released an advisory that the said promo is not a legitimate promo from the airline company. They also clarified that the Philippine Airline has been operating for 76 years and not 28 years as the fake promo said. They reminded their patrons that PAL promotions and announcements can only be found legitimately in their website www.philippineairlines.com and their official social media accounts. PAL also said that they had reported the fake ad to the proper authorities, citing that "" under the consumer act of the Philippines,any person found guilty of false advertising shall be subjected to fines and imprisonment of not less than 3 months or not more than 2 years or both upon discretion of the court.""  Be extra careful when sharing anything on social media. You might become an accessory  in spreading fake news."
