Scam Warning: Fake Coupons Making the Rounds

By Fernando
A couple of coupons promise big savings from Lowe's and Bed, Bath, and Beyond but beware. They're bogus!
 
A $75 off coupon for Bed, Bath, and Beyond can look like a real blessing to anyone hoping to snag a deeply discounted gift for Mother's Day but alas... it's too good to be true. The chain took to Facebook to share the disappointing news:
Lowe's is also dealing with fallout from a similar counterfeit coupon offering $50 off:

CBS News recently posted a story about these false offers (plus, scary info about those "10 Concert" posts) and provided helpful tips for spoting them, from Facebook:
  1. If you suspect a post is fake, whether you simply believe it is false or click through it and notice something seems off, report the actual post to Facebook so the company can learn more about it.
  2. If you click on one of these posts and realize it's not real, exit the page. Be wary of pages that ask you for credentials, and never put in personal information on sites that pop up unexpectedly.
