REV advised today that it has been informed of an Internet ad that is currently being distributed that falsely appears to be originating from the company and is targeting REV customers.
REV wishes to inform all of its subscribers that this ad, which claims that the company is offering a free Apple iPhone X and other gifts and provides an unauthorised and fraudulent link for customers to complete a survey and provide personal information, is not from the company and warns that no one should click on the link or follow any instructions contained in the post.
