With all Asia Oasis’s prize-winning activities, please note that if you are the true winner, we will:
1. Make an official announcement on our Website and Facebook account so that you know it is genuine, not scamming.
2. Ask you to make contact with our official contact details (email, phone or website etc) instead of us making contact with you.
3. Not ask for your bank account details
With the Registration to win prizes announced on 21 September 2022, please note that the registration is still open for everyone until 30 November 2022. After this deadline, we will use a system to randomly draw numbers and announce the winners before the Festival with the method described above. The winners can only claim these prizes in person at the Festival. Asia Oasis will not ask for your bank account details in any way.
Please take extra care to check our official account, content, status, or any suspicious request before taking any action. This morning the scammer used our logo to make them look genuine, which is a common identity fraud for most scams.
If you have any queries on this matter, please do not hesitate to contact us via info@asiaoasis.com.au; or go to our website and click on Contact: https://asiaoasis.com.au/contact/.
Thank you for your understanding and support to Asia Oasis, and please share this information widely with your network and community to stop these horrible scams.
Yours sincerely
Asia Oasis Management
