These fraud ads, social media posts or messages are not from any genuine companies but are from scammers to get your personal information so that they can scam you. They may ask you to click some link and submit the personal details on the fake website posing the real ones or call them or message/reply to them where they will trick you to submit your personal details. So, you should not participate in such activities or click any link or download anything (if provided any) or follow any instructions. The links or files provided there may also contain some viruses or malware or spyware that can hack your device as well.

Once these cybercriminals get your personal information, they make money by selling those details. If they get your credit card information, even they can steal money from your credit card. So, you should not follow any instructions provided on these kinds of ads/social media posts/messages.
