Fradulent Coupon

One of my nice readers told me my coupon I posted earlier is fradulent.  :(  I removed the coupon.  Here is the link to the site  http://www.fritolay.com/real-vs-counterfeit-coupon.html  The only reason I posted the coupon earlier is because I actually used it at the store and it worked.  I had no idea this was fraudulent.  This came off the Frito-Lay website:

Real vs. Counterfeit Free Doritos Coupon

A counterfeit coupon for a free bag of Doritos chips up to $5 is still circulating, primarily through e-mail. It was not created, authorized or distributed by Frito-Lay. We have notified retailer customers of this fraud and are working with authorities to identify the source of the fraudulent coupon. You should not knowingly use a counterfeit coupon. We sincerely apologize for the disappointment and confusion this has caused. Please watch for valid coupons and sales in stores, magazines, Sunday newspaper ads, and on our credible websites. The image below shows the difference between a Real Free bag of Doritos coupon and Counterfeit Free bag of Doritos coupon.

I guess I am safe because I didn't know about it before.  I am sorry for the bad coupon.  Boo!

  1. That is so crazy! I was just given these fraudulent Doritos coupons as well as ones for a free 12 pk of pepsi and free Perdue chicken. I didn't use the chicken one or the Dorito one and I'm so glad I didn't. I'm throwing them all away now! I had no idea!
