It has recently been brought to our attention that our readers are receiving disturbing telephone calls from individuals claiming to be conducting a sex survey on behalf of COSMOPOLITAN. Our readers are being asked very intimate questions by these individuals who are promising them stays at five-star resorts.
We are shocked that and appalled that these scammers would abuse the COSMPOLITAN brand, and we sincerely apologise for any inconvenience or discomfort this may have caused our readers.
Please be aware that these individuals are in
no way associated with COSMOPOLITAN or Associated Magazines. We will never ask you intimate questions telephonically; the only place we will request private information from you is in the form of online surveys on
www.cosmopolitan.co.za.
Also, the only time you will receive a telephone call from us is to inform you that you have won one of our competitions.
We would like all readers to please be aware of this scam and not divulge sensitive information telephonically.
Once again, to the readers who have been subjected to this scam, we sincerely apologise.
