Morrisons is urging shoppers to remain vigilant over a potential scam that has been circulating social media recently.
The supermarket chain has sent a warning to shoppers over a Facebook page that claims to be offering free food boxes to Morrisons shoppers online.
A Facebook page called 'Morrisons Fans' has been reported by quite a few shoppers after they noticed it was asking for shoppers to fill in their personal details.
The page claims they are helping to support shoppers during the cost of living crisis by offering a free box of food worth £35, with a £15 voucher also being available in some of the boxes.
Shoppers are being asked to like and comment on the post sharing the free box of food, as well as being asked to provide their personal details to be in with a chance of winning one.
Multiple shoppers began warning others over the potential scam causing Morrisons to step in and confirm it has no affiliation with the page or the "free" offer.
The British supermarket chain released a statement to its official Facebook page asking shoppers to report the page and to take action if they have provided any details online.
The post read: "Hi everyone, we are aware of a page that is offering free food boxes if you provide your personal details.
"This is not our page as we only post from our verified Facebook account and we would advise reporting it on Facebook when you see it.
"If you are concerned about any details you have given via a link sent from this page, we would advise contacting Action Fraud. Thank you all for letting us know about this and have a lovely evening."
Action Fraud urges any shoppers to report any websites or adverts that "feel suspicious" to report@phishing.gov.uk - even if you're not certain it's scam. Any shoppers who believe their bank details have been compromised should contact their bank immediately.
