Cadbury issues warning over cruel Easter egg scam spreading over WhatsApp

Cadbury has warned its customers of a cruel Easter scam circulating on WhatsApp and social media.

Many app users are receiving links promising a "free Cadbury Easter Chocolate Basket". After opening the web page, there are some questions to answer before the recipient is prompted to enter personal details including their name and address.

People that fall victim to the scam assume that they are entering these details in order to receive their prize, however this is not the case. Cadbury is now warning people not to open the link, or share any details on the form it presents.
