Fake Żabka Halloween survey promising a 1,000 zł gift card if you share it with friends

A Polish-language page posing as Żabka Polska, the convenience store chain, opens with "Gratulacje!" and offers a chance to get a 1,000 zł gift card for answering a four-question Halloween survey. Its banner lists three steps: take part, fill in a short survey, and share the page with friends on social media, shown with Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Messenger icons, before you "collect your Żabka gift card". Below it, comments posted minutes apart say the writers already won. It was first observed in Poland on November 1, 2026, at biqbo[.]com, an address that does not belong to Żabka. The same page code and analytics ID were used on 13 other addresses since August 2026 for gift quizzes in the names of Pick n Pay, La Colonia, Mi Comisariato, Alfamart, Indomaret and SilverQueen.

What’s different in this version

These traits set this message apart from the usual pattern.

  1. The lure is Halloween instead of a store anniversary. The banner reads "HALLOWEENOWA NIESPODZIANKA od ŻABKI!" (a Halloween surprise from Żabka) and "ZRÓB ANKIETĘ, ZGARNIJ KARTĘ!" (do the survey, grab the card), over a picture of young people in costumes holding green Żabka cards.

  2. The banner spells out sharing as step 3, "PODZIEL SIĘ z przyjaciółmi w mediach społecznościowych" (share with friends on social media), with Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Messenger icons, and only then shows the gift card.

  3. The prize is a 1,000 zł gift card. The page shows the date 11/1/2026 at the top, the same day it was observed, which makes the offer look current.

  4. The comments are in Polish but most of the names are not, and each one says the writer won or got a gift. One says the writer told friends so they could win too.

  5. The address is biqbo[.]com with a long random-looking path. The Research Inbox links it by the same analytics ID and page copy to 13 other addresses used since August 3, 2026, for the same kind of quiz in the names of retailers in Ecuador, Honduras, Indonesia and South Africa.

  6. Only the first of the four questions was captured, so the share step itself, and anything asked for after it, was not recorded.

How this scam works

  1. 1

    Step 1: You receive or open a page that uses a well-known brand name and says you have won a prize.

  2. 2

    Step 2: The page asks you to share it on social media or with multiple groups or friends through messaging apps before you can claim the prize.

  3. 3

    Step 3: The shared link may use an unrelated web address and take recipients through another prize or reward page.

  4. 4

    Step 4: The page may later ask for personal details, payment information, or additional actions to release the supposed prize.

✓ Do this

  • Close the page and verify promotions through the brand's official website or app, opened independently.
  • Warn anyone you may have sent the link to so they do not open it or share it further.
  • Report the message or page through the service where you received it, then delete it.
  • If you entered information or payment details, contact your bank or card provider and change any reused password through the official service.

✗ Avoid this

  • Do not share the page with groups, friends, or family to unlock a prize.
  • Do not enter personal, account, or payment information on an unfamiliar prize page.
  • Do not trust a brand logo, countdown, comments, or claims that other people already received the reward.
  • Do not use links from the page to verify the promotion; find the official brand website yourself.
