Aldi customers urged to stay away from fake £65 vouchers - how to stay safe

Aldi customers have been warned to stay away from hoax vouchers circulating on email and social media which trick shoppers into thinking that they can save money. The German retailer said the £65 vouchers, that circulated on platforms such as Facebook and Twitter, are worthless and will not be accepted as legal tender at their stores. Aldi said it was investigating the scam and urged customers not to share their personal details, which could help scammers to commit identity fraud. "We advise customers to ignore these adverts and not to share any personal information," the supermarket said in a statement sent to the Independent. On Twitter, the supermarket said: "We are aware that there is a hoax £65 Aldi voucher being circulated. This voucher is fraudulent and cannot be redeemed in store."
