PS5 and Nintendo Switch are proliferating suspicious games before closing. Sweet trap of easy present campaign

It seems that a tweet that performs a suspicious gift lottery of PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch is rampant with a Twitter account that claims to be a game store just before closing. Each account is encouraged to add LINE friends to contact the winners. Such actions seem to be suspicious by users on SNS.

There are various gifts' lottery, from an account called a hobby shop and an account that claims to be the manager and deputy manager. Neither of the stores or contacts are not described, and even if you search the store name on Google search and Google Maps, only the Twitter account is displayed as search results. At least within the writer's observation range, there seems to be only information on the store that has been lottery in the account.

For example, there is also an account of a retail store that claims to be the Game Shop Atlas Yokohama store. The relevant retail stores do not seem to exist in other areas, let alone Yokohama store. Game shop Atlas itself is a lie. There is an intention to misunderstand that the chain is being deployed and try to enhance the credibility. In addition, as a result of my survey, some suspicious parts were found.

When I searched Google images on the header image of Twitter on a certain account, I was able to confirm that it was a trimming image of another real store that appears to be irrelevant. It's a deceit that seems to be a real store. In addition, the account of the dubious gift lottery confirmed by our magazine was all opened in September. In other words, each store has opened an account just before closing. It's full of suspicions.

As an item that claims that an account will be presented by lottery, the main game console, such as PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch Organic EL version, is the center. On the other hand, it seems that they are making careful preparations to make them look plausible as a small store that handles cards and games, such as posting a lottery tweet of Trek BOX in advance.

It seems that the image of the gift lottery is not only official images, but also a real photo. By using real photos, it will be a soul to increase credibility. Also, after searching for Google images, some real photos were confirmed that they were the same images used in personal blogs that seemed to be irrelevant to this case. In addition, it may be seen that multiple accounts that should be unrelated are performing a gift lottery using exactly the same real photo. As a trick, it would be the same as the fake store.

Each account presented the account follow-up and retweet of the lottery tweet as a condition for the gift lottery. Furthermore, the post following each tweet describes the URL that guides the addition of LINE friends as the contact information to the winners.

A gift lottery that is a suspicious store that is a real store that reprints images from various places. The lottery will be held, and the possibility of reaching the item you want will be extremely low. It seems to be the purpose of collecting personal information such as a LINE account.

The gift campaign is a popular project in that both parties have the advantage of being able to easily acquire followers on the present, and the applicant can apply for a sweepstake without any hassle. Therefore, in recent years, various companies are developing present campaigns. There is also a trick that uses the account that is often a gift campaign to fake personal information. This example is the development form of such a trick. If you see a dubious gift lottery, please be careful.
