"Your prize is a free Samsung Galaxy A52. Follow the instructions on the next page to claim your prize. Share with 5 groups/20 friends (click the free icon below). Click continue and claim your prize, the message reads.

It has come to our notice that bogus people/agencies are promising prizes by organising fake lucky draws. The public is advised to not trust any such website, Indian Oil Corporation Limited said.
