FYI scammers are catching on to Instagram contests and reaching out to users who signed up for contest with a fake profile. Got contacted this morning that I won a head cover from Swag Golf. When I click the link it takes me to a movie site and they say they are partnering with the film site to get my info lol. The poor grammar gave it away immediately but just letting everyone know to be aware. Report them to Instagram for being spam. Apparently the official Swag Golf Co put a notice up on twitter about it as well.

Thanks for the heads up. I had heard about these types of scams. Whenever I receive a DM, i click on the profile of that Instagram user to make sure it leads me back to the main account of the expected user.

Seems odd that swag golf seems to be the main one having this problem. They post on their story a couple times a week about scam accounts
