Cadbury has issued a warning after a potential scam aimed at accessing people's personal information has came to light. The company was in-turn alerted to posts being shared on social media, promising consumers a free Easter chocolate basket.
Parents across the UK were among those to receive the posts from other social media users, who thought they were benefiting from a treat free of charge. Stating 'Cadbury FREE Easter Chocolate Basket' the link actually took people to a website where they were asked to submit their personal information - The Manchester Evening News Reports.
However, this afternoon, the company has issued a notice warning people around the world about the scam - urging them not to share any private details.
