The senders claim that they have won a voucher worth 750 euros for Mediamarkt.

A new attempt at fraud is currently underway. As the State Criminal Police Office Lower Saxony warns that this time the fraudsters are targeting users of the messenger service Viber.
This is rather unusual as such campaigns mostly target WhatsApp. Since WhatsApp has recently lost millions of users to other messengers due to the controversial terms of use, the fraudsters now also seem to be expanding their machinations to these messenger alternatives.
750 euro voucher
In the current campaign, the fraudsters pose as competition operators. They promise a voucher for Mediamarkt in the amount of 750 euros. All you have to do is fill out an anonymous questionnaire on the “Viber Gifts” website.
