This link claims Naivas Supermarket is allegedly giving out shopping allowances as part of its 32nd-anniversary celebration.
Background
First, to receive this voucher, the link requires you to answer questions about the supermarket. Attached to this link are testimonials from accounts claiming to have supposedly received this voucher.
Verification
A search of one of the accounts claiming to have received this voucher leads to a Facebook account whose user lives in South Africa. Registered as Per’cie Shabba IX, this account’s profile photo is the same as the one attached to these testimonials, as well as the name. However, this account’s description shows the user lives in South Africa- Middelburg, Mpumalanga. Naivas Supermarket is only in Kenya.
ßlxck Felow IX (Toffee) is another account attached to this alleged offer. But a search on Facebook shows that this account is linked to a user in South Africa, with the same name; ßlxck Felow IX (Toffee). Both the name and profile photo match the ones attached on the Naivas Supermarket promotion.
Naivas Supermarket has over 80 branches in Kenya, but has not expanded to South Africa.
This advertisement was flagged as a scam by the supermarket.
Moreover, a search on WhoIs shows this website is registered as harvestallusion.cn. A comparison with the website registered under Naivas, shows the supermarket’s official website is registered as naivas.online. The former was registered on June 12, 2022, about a year after Naivas’ official website was registered.
Verdict
Naivas is NOT giving out shopping vouchers.
