Are Instagram Giveaways a Scam?

<p>Are Instagram giveaways really worth your time—or just a scam for companies to gain followers? In this episode of Shank Outdoors, I dive into the rise of giveaway contests on Instagram and Facebook, where users are asked to like, follow, and tag friends for a chance to win.

I share my personal experience winning a set of Novsight LED lights, and why smaller mom-and-pop shops often feel more transparent with their giveaways. Let’s talk about whether these big brand contests are legit or just engagement bait.</p><p><br></p><p>If you’ve ever entered a giveaway online, this one’s for you—don’t miss it!</p><p><br></p>
