No, Hy-Vee isn’t giving away $150 in free groceries.
The Des Moines, Iowa-based grocer with a location on MacArthur Boulevard in Springfield says the Facebook and Twitter posting making the rounds is a scam.
The post on Facebook doesn’t even correctly use the word “groceries.”
“We want our customers to know this giveaway is in no way affiliated with our company. We also want to educate them on the dangers posed by sharing and clicking on the post,” says Tara Deering-Hansen, group vice president of communications at Hy-Vee, in a news release.
Deering-Hansen says you might want to scan your computer for viruses and malware if you mistakenly clicked on the link.
