SHOPPERS are being warned to ignore a "fraudulent" Aldi voucher being circulated online.
The hoax voucher offers £65 to customers in a bid to get them to share their personal details online.
Visiting the website leads to a screen saying: "Congratulations! You won a free £65 ALDI coupon! Click here to claim it now!"
Then, customers are asked to fill in a survey in order to 'claim' the voucher – which is worthless.
But the supermarket giant – which has two branches in the city, with a third on the way – has warned shoppers the coupon is a hoax, stating on Twitter it would never ask customers to share their personal details via a website.
It said: "ALERT: We are aware that there is a hoax £65 Aldi voucher being circulated.
"This voucher is fraudulent and cannot be redeemed in store.
"Aldi UK will never ask you to share your personal details via a website to redeem a genuine voucher offer.
"This is being investigated."
