Who doesn't eat at McDonald's? Especially here in the US, there's a McDonald's restaurant on every corner, and a Big Mac is a requirement for many people at least one night a week. So, it comes as no surprise that McDonald's customers are being targeted by a phishing scam.
The scam is an email that claims you'll be paid $80 for filling out a survey about McDonald's. Sorry, it's a phishing attempt. If McDonald's could afford to pay out $80 for every person that took that survey, our hamburgers would cost a whole lot less. Of course, there are other clear indicators that it's phishing too. For example, there are spelling errors in the message, and the fact that they're offering $80 is too good to be true.
McDonald's has confirmed that this is a phishing scam. So, use caution, and always remember when you see something like this that sounds unbelievable...it probably is. When in doubt, contact the company directly.
