MENOMONEE FALLS, Wis (MetroSource-WSAU) – It’s a deal that sounds too good to be true – and it is. There is a Kohl’s coupon circulating on social media for $75-off any purchase of $80-or more. It’s fake.
The coupon looks legit at first glance. Signs that it isn’t real include a reference to the company’s 56th anniversary. Kohl’s first started as a supermarket 70 years ago. And the url on the coupon does not say kohls.com but rather kohls.com-customer.com.
There are two concerns. Since it’s an on-line coupon, scammers could be collecting personal data on people who try to use it. Fake on-line coupons could also be used to put malware onto your computer.
