Free $500 Mac kit

[KIT]

I got an email from "MAC" giving away a kit that is worth $500. It starts asking some info, and im scared to fall into a trap. Did anyone get an email like this? it came from MAC" <[email protected]>

That sounds iffy to me, I'm afraid.

Why don't you give MAC a call or send them an email to verify this promotion. That may help to clear things up.

Yeah I would call MAC to verify before I gave any personal info...the person's name on the front end is throwing me...never seen anything like that personally come from MAC

Note that the domain isn't really maccosmetics.com, it's maccosmetics.com-mac.info. It goes to some blog. Definitely not an official MAC promotion.

Just like someone mentioned, the domain to the email has info.com at the end, it directs to some lame blog. definitely fake.

I would forward the URL and possible a copy of the email to MAC.
