The internet and social media have scams aplenty, and one of the most common types we encounter consists of offers for “free coupons” to major retail or restaurant chains.

The hot scam this week is a $100 coupon supposedly offered by Kohl’s department stores in celebration of their 57th anniversary. But while it’s true that Kohl’s marked its 57th year in business this year, Bethania Palma reports, the company is not handing out $100 coupons to people who fill out a Facebook survey.

A good rule of thumb to follow: If an offer seems too good to be true, it probably is.
