Air Peace Limited has released a firm warning about a fake social media post claiming a “30% off Africa flights” promotion.
In a statement issued by its spokesperson, Osifo-Whiskey Efe, the airline clarified that it is not conducting any such offer, calling the advertisement “fraudulent and entirely unrelated to Air Peace.”
The spokesperson urged the public to ignore the false post and refrain from interacting with those behind it, who are reportedly trying to scam unsuspecting individuals.
The airline said, “Our attention has been drawn to a sponsored post circulating on social media, advertising a purported ‘30% off Africa flights’ promotion and requesting members of the public to sign up to access this offer.
“We wish to categorically state that Air Peace Limited is not running any 30 per cent discount promotion. The said advertisement is fraudulent and not affiliated with Air Peace in any way. We therefore urge the public to disregard such posts and refrain from engaging with the promoters, as they are only attempting to defraud unsuspecting individuals.”
The airline also raised concerns about reports of customers trying to book tickets through the domain airpeace.com. Air Peace clarified that its only official website is www.flyairpeace.com and that it has no association with airpeace.com or any other unauthorised sites promoting false offers.
The statement added that, “For your safety and to avoid falling victim to scams, passengers are advised to use only the following official contact channels: Call Centre: +234 201 343 8133; Email: callcenter@flyairpeace.com; Website: www.flyairpeace.com
