Fake Sky Poker Group on Facebook? (???????????for Tikay)

Seems a new Sky Poker Group has opened on Facebook alleging a £10,000 giveaway. Looks fake, surely some pretty serious grown up laws are being broken?

    It looks like it's probably fake to me too. The same page has promised Freeroll passwords in the past then not delivered.

    I'd recommend holding back on likes and shares unless it gets verified as genuine.

    The person running the page showed his/her location to be 'near Paignton' on 30th August. As far as I'm aware Sky don't have any representatives in the Devon area.

    Thanks Graham.

    I don't have Facebook access these days, so I've not seen it, but it's likely to be bogus, yes.

    I have sent a note Upstairs so that they will be aware.

    It's definitely fake and I agree, some proper laws must be being broken here.

    Hi,

    This is indeed a fake Sky Poker page. This happens from time to time unfortunately.
    We have informed Facebook who are taking the necessary actions.

    https://www.facebook.com/SkyPoker is the only official Sky Poker Facebook page.

    Thanks
    Lee
