It depends! Some influencer giveaways are legit, but others can be scams or just marketing tactics. Here’s how to tell the difference:
✅ Signs of a Real Giveaway
- Hosted by a verified influencer or brand.
- Clear rules and deadlines posted.
- Winner is publicly announced (often in stories or posts).
- No weird requests (e.g., asking for credit card info).
❌ Red Flags for Scams
- Asking for money or personal info to “claim” the prize.
- Too many partners (some “loop giveaways” are sketchy).
- No real winner announced.
- Fake-looking accounts running it.
Are “Tag Your Friends” Giveaways Worth It?
Some are real, but they’re mostly a growth hack for influencers. If they’re backed by a brand, you have a better shot.
