Attention BARA Family: The wannabes are back!

As we’re growing as a brand, many unethical people with bad intentions seize the opportunity to try and fool our amazing followers with fake Instagram accounts. We’ve got a number of reports from followers letting us know that they’ve gotten messages from suspicious accounts, claiming that they have won different giveaways etc.

Sadly, counterfeiters have become incredibly skilled at making some pretty convincing fake accounts, and that’s why we feel the urge to give you a heads up and what to look for.

These fake advertisements and sites not only mislead you into thinking you have won something, but they also want you to click on links, giving away sensitive, personal information and in some instances result in you falling victim to a financial scam.

2. If someone says that you have won something and that you need to click on a link to “claim your prize”, that’s not us. We always tell winners of giveaways to send a DM to our Instagram Account @bara, and we always tag the winner in either Instagram Story or in the actual giveaway post.
