Free shoes on FB (allegedly)

[sherrardk]

There is a link doing the rounds on FB for 200,000 pairs of free shoes from Van. Takes seconds to do but you might get a pair (unless it is some sort of horrible scam).

Now, according to the Vans Europe page on Facebook, you won't be getting a free pair of new shoes for `liking' their page. Don't know if this is going to show or not.....

Look at the Facebook bit on the right hand side of the page.

Did occur to me that giving away 200,000 pairs of shoes was a bit extreme! Thanks for the link.

Vans just posted up to say it's nothing to do with them and they've asked Facebook to take the page down. Thanks for thinking of us though :-)

Hey UK Vans family. Heads up. There's a huge scam gaining traction in your neck of the woods. This is TOTALLY BOGUS and has nothing to do with Vans. You'll not be getting free shoes for liking that page. We've asked for facebook to take down the page, but we don't want you getting bummed on us...so don't fall for it. Thanks!"
