UPDATE: Target has officially confirmed that they aren’t affiliated with this $1000 gift card text scam, or any other online Gift Redemption Program. Read their statement and find out what to do if you get this text message in our follow-up post.

 

Walmart $1000 Gift Card, BestBuyWin.net, BestBuyContests.com and now TargetContests.com! The weather might be getting colder, but text message scammers are heating up. Have you received a text message that says, “Your entry last month WON! Go to TargetContests.com enter winning code 3847 to claim your FREE $1000.00 Target gift card within 24hrs.”?

If so, you’re not alone. We received our first complaint about this bogus gift card text message on November 8, but this text spam (aka smishing) scheme has exploded on Scambook within the past two days. We anticipate that the numbers will continue to grow exponentially.

 

Click here to see the Target Contests group page on Scambook.

 

This is still breaking news, but I compared our TargetContests.com data to the statistics we’ve been collecting about Best Buy gift card smishing (BestBuyWin.net, BestBuyContests.com, etc). The earliest numbers for the Best Buy scheme were very close to what we’re seeing for TargetContests.com.

User reports about TargetContests.com are coming in from all over the US, but the attack seems to be concentrated on the coasts. (Source: Scambook.com)

That means over 100,000 cell phone users could be, ahem, targeted by this phony text within the next three months.

So far, Scambook members have reported 149 complaints about TargetContests.com. But more than 100 of those complaints arrived overnight between November 12 and 13. We’ve rarely seen a single complaint subject get so much activity in such a short time period.

As with the other smishing cases, Target isn’t affiliated with this scheme. We’re reaching out to Target for a comment and we’ll update this post as soon as we get an official statement.

 

New Twist, Same Scheme

It’s a new twist on the same mobile fraud we’ve been tracking from the very beginning of the Scambook Blog. Spammers select thousands of cell phone numbers, usually via randomizing computer software, then blast a text message promoting the bogus $1000 gift card prize.

They use stores where most people shop, like Target and Walmart, then create websites that mimic the real company’s brand. TargetContests.com looks like this:

TargetContests.com uses Target’s real brand logo as well as their iconic red and white color scheme, but don’t be fooled. They’re not actually affiliated with Target. (Source: Targetcontests.com)

At first glance, it’s pretty convincing. And who wouldn’t love to win a $1000 Target gift card, especially so close to Christmas? Unfortunately, just like the Walmart Gift Card Scam and BestBuyWin.net, this gift card prize isn’t real. Target has nothing to do with this.

 

The Truth Behind the Text

It’s a cross-promotional marketing scheme known as a Gift Redemption Program. TargetContests.com redirects to DailyGiftCard.com, which seems to be affiliated with DailyDealFinder.com and looks eerily similar to RewardHubZone.com, the real website behind BestBuyWin.net.

You’d have to complete over a dozen product trial offers — and get 3 friends to do the same — before you even get a glimpse of your gift card. In the meantime, TargetContests.com will give your personal information to all sorts of affiliate companies and marketers. It’s stated clearly in their Privacy Policy, but it’s easy to overlook that tiny link.

Read the fine print: “We will share any and all personal information you submit to our Company with third parties who may have products or services you will find of interest. We will share your information without your additional consent.” (Source: TargetContests.com)


In all my research on this subject, I’ve never come across anyone who has completed one of these Gift Redemption Programs and actually received a $1000 gift card, or any prize. Have you? After thousands of reports from users who have received these gift card smishing texts, we’d love to hear from someone who actually got one. Personally, I think these text message winners are like unicorns or Santa Claus. Prove me wrong in the comments.

If you receive a text for a free $1000 gift card prize at TargetContests.com, ignore it and contact your service provider to report the sender. Your cell phone company may also be able to block unknown numbers for texting you and charging your account.

UPDATE: Target’s Response

We reached out to a Target representative, who confirmed that Target isn’t sending you these text messages. They’re not affiliated with TargetContests.com or any other website affiliated with a smishing text. In fact, they’re just as ticked off as you are. Target is working hard to get fake “Target” websites, like TargetContests.com, permanently removed and blocked.

The official word from Target:

 

Recently, there have been reports of automated text message scams that prompt unsuspecting phone users to click on a link to “win a $1,000 gift card,” among other offers.

Target takes the security of its guests and consumers seriously and works to disable and block fake “Target” websites and links as soon as they’re discovered.

If you receive such a message [as TargetContests.com] it is most likely a scam. Indicators that the offer is suspicious include sloppy language, typos and an informal style, such as multiple exclamation marks.

 

Target is advising users to ignore the text message. If you’re unsure about a promotional offer, Target urges consumers to contact them directly by visiting www.target.com/contactus

    I just received another text message. This is the third one in the last two days. First was the WatMart gift card message, then one for Actors wanted, and now this one from TargetContest. I am tired of these texts and I want them to stop now. I hope someone can catch up with who ever is doing this and STOP them once and for all.
    Thank you

    Got a text just like the one described except my code was different. Besides the fact that winning $1000 is extremely unlikely, the tip-off for me was that I never entered any contest at Target. I don’t even have a Target near me and have not shopped at one in probably over a year. I’m glad I came to this site before I responded, out of curiosity, to this text.

      Hi Amanda, thanks for your comment. Just to be clear, Target isn’t responsible for this. The people who are texting you are affiliated with DailyGiftCard.com, a website that uses the brand names of trustworthy companies like Target to lure consumers into participating in online surveys and special offers. They do not have any official relationship with Target.

      It’s easy to miss, but if you read the fine print on TargetContests.com, it states that “This Gift Redemption Program is an independent rewards program for consumers and is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by any of the listed products or retailers.”

      We’re reaching out to Target and we’ll update the Scambook Blog with an official statement soon.

      Hi Kristen, thanks for your comment. Generally, the people behind these smishing schemes use computer software to select phone numbers at random, or they acquire phone numbers from dishonest companies you may have done business with in the past. If you’re concerned, contact your cell phone provider and let them know what’s happened. They may be able to block unknown numbers from texting you.

      Hi Becca, we’re seeing a few different codes based on what our members are reporting. To see some examples, you can visit the Scambook TargetContests.com complaints page here. However, as part of my research for this blog article, I visited TargetContests.com in a secure web browser and entered several random codes, like 1234 and 0000. They were all “approved” because the code is simply another trick to make consumers believe they’ve won a real contest. Thanks for your comment.

      Hi Isabella, the best thing to do if you receive a TargetContests.com text message is simply ignore it. Although this text message scam is being sent out in record numbers, it can’t really hurt you unless you participate. Do not reply back and do not go to TargetContests.com or any other website mentioned in the text. If you have extra concerns, I suggest contacting your cell phone provider about this.

    I want to know why the feds don’t do something about this! These type of scams are in direct violation of FCC regulations. Tracking down the perpetrators is SUPER SIMPLE. Fine them, freeze their assets, whatever it takes — shut them down.

    I’m sure the FCC has some lame excuse of how “hard” it is. Just like the feds have a million excuses why they don’t shut down other Internet crimes. Excuses that show they don’t know how to hire good technical people who can find ciber scumbags in a matter of minutes or hours at most.

    I think it is time for us to exercise some vigilante justice. We can shut them down. All of you smart people out there, quit screwing around with legit services like Amazon, Google, MSN, etc. Let’s go get the scumbags!

    Thanks for the info in this article Miranda; all the research on this topic in one place! I too was an unlucky recipient of this particular smishing scam last night, and it’s interesting to see how widespread this one seems to be.
    Towards the end of your article, you mused upon successful Gift Redemption Program stories. Well, actually, I have one. Now this was a good while ago, back when Free iPods were king, and maybe success there was more widespread, but I simply completed the requisite ~8 offers (signing up and canceling). After about a month of waiting and ~$60 bucks total, they sent me a check in the mail for ~$350. Again, not sure if it’s just the giftcard scams that never succeed, but that one surely did for me!
    Anyways, thanks again for a great article.

      Hi Christopher, thanks for sharing your story! I’m glad that other Gift Redemption Program worked out for you. You might be right, perhaps these programs were more legitimate in their early days. The rise in texting and smartphone/mobile internet technology most likely opened up dozens of new avenues for these shady businesses to exploit people. Besides, even if you could receive a Target gift card by jumping through all their hoops, it’s unethical to get someone’s hopes up by telling them they’ve won a “FREE” $1000 prize, especially when it’s so close to the holidays and so many families are struggling due to the economy.

    I received this scam this morning in Lebanon County, PA. I really had hope it was real because #1 I shop at Target using their REDcard and thought maybe it automatically entered me into a contest. #2 How would they (whoever “they” are) get my number?

    I followed your advice and forwarded the text to Verizon 7726 and followed their instructions. I’m sure whoever does this kind of thing uses several different phone numbers and probably throw away phones.

They might generate your number at random using a computer program, purchase a marketing list that contains your number or even hack into legitimate websites that store your information. You can read more about this in our Target Contests update post. Thanks for your comment.
