Ninebot & Amazon Promo on Facebook – Is It a Scam?

According to our investigations, it is all a scam. No, Amazon is not giving away Ninebot Scooter for such cheap prices. Far from it! You’re being tricked by a clever bunch of scammers.

Why do I say so?

The pages offering the Ninebot Promo are all fake pages without the verified badge.

When you click on the link, and visit the website, below is what happens –

  • You’d be taken to a different website that has absolutely nothing to do with Ninebot or Amazon.
  • You’ll be made to sign up for membership. This means providing your personal information and your credit card details
  • $79 subscription fee or more would be debited from your credit card
  • You wouldn’t be able to contact the customer service to request for a chargeback

We’ve seen this happen many times, like that of Dyson.

This is exactly how the scam works. Here are some of the websites offering the £1.78 Ninebot scooter:

  • imwatch.info
  • cozes.info
  • couplpai.com

On the other hand, beware of the following Facebook pages –  

As you can see, the scam targets people living in European countries. What these Facebook pages have in common is this – absence of Facebook verified blue tick, Fake £1.78 promo, Fake comments etc.

What should you do if you’ve already submitted your financial details to these suspicious sites?

  • Inform your Bank
  • Have your credit card cancelled
  • Report the Facebook page
  • Share this review to warn your family and friends
