Air Peace has issued warning to the public about a new fraudulent scheme involving a fake $800 'Victory Gift' linked to the airline.

In an official statement, on X(formerly twitter), Air Peace categorically dissociated itself from the message, emphasising that it is a scam with no affiliation to the airline.

The company clarified that it is not running any 'Victory Day Gift' campaign or any form of online giveaway.

The statement reads:

"Our attention has been drawn to a particular micro site with the title 'Air Peace Victory Gift', requesting unsuspecting members of the public to share a "WhatsApp link with friends" and stand a chance to claim 800 dollars."We hereby dissociate the Air Peace brand from the site as it is purely a scam."We are not running any Victory Day Gift campaign or any online giveaway."Members of the public should ignore the site as the 800 dollars reward is only a bait to achieve the authors' fraudulent purposes."

This is not the first time Air Peace has been targeted by fraudsters, highlighting the growing issue of cyber scams targeting individuals and businesses alike.
