NATIONAL Police have warned of a WhatsApp scam in which messages claim to offer €150 vouchers to spend in high-street chain Zara on its website.
If the phone user clicks on the link, he or she is asked to fill in an online form with personal data.
This then results in spam, adware and so-called premium-rate text messages, or SMS adverts which charge the recipient.
As part of its ongoing campaign to stamp out social media cons, the police has uploaded a picture of the so-called 'special offer' on its Twitter site under the hashtag #NoPiques ('Don't Fall For It').
