For the past few years there has been an illegal trend where persons are tricked by unscrupulous individuals claiming association with particular products and services.
The most recent scam is preying on the Magnum Tonic Wine brand. Jamaicans are constantly b****arded with fraudulent calls informing them that they have won prizes from Magnum Tonic Wine and should send cash through Western Union or other organizations in order to receive these prizes.
It is unfortunate that persons are being deceived in this manner and the public is being advised to exercise the strictest of caution.The management of Lascelles Ltd, distributors of Magnum Tonic Wine constantly urges the public to be aware of such unscrupulous persons.
Theyre advising the public that Magnum Tonic Wine is not and will not conduct any competition or promotion which requires persons to send cash to claim prizes. They value their loyal customers and have always ensured that the details of any competition or promotion are properly communicated.
Lascelles urges the members of the public to take care and be vigilant in conducting daily activities as they will not be held responsible for compensating persons who suffer losses in any scam
