What's the catch, a Samsung Galaxy for 68 Baht?

[giddyup]

Scrolling Facebook and see an ad for a new Samsung mobile for 68 Baht. Just fill out name and address and give credit card details. Supposedly comes from Powerbuy. Too good to be true?

Definitely a scam.

The catch is you..

"Just fill out name and address and give credit card details."

Did they ask for your security question like "what is your favorite pet" too? Or did you give this earlier on one of those many FB questions like " your rock band name is ...."

I found that paying the 68 baht by cc automatically signed you up for a dodgy recurring charge membership with ambiguous info about costs and no doubt difficult to cancel so of course I didn't go for it.

Possibly with personal info and cc info they are selling to identity thrives who would try to drain bank accounts.
