In this case, the Speedway post asks users to "apply now" and answer a few basic questions. After clicking, it brings you to a row of gift boxes and tells you to choose a prize. From there, it asks you to turn over personal information to a suspicious website in order to "win." Don’t fall for it.  We rate this !
