We have been made aware of a scam event being shared across Facebook encouraging students to sign up to a fake puppy petting event. This event and the page it is hosted by are in no way linked to Lancaster University or Lancaster University Students' Union (LUSU)

The event and sign up is being used to capture student’s personal information. The form being used to capture student's personal information is hosted by Google and can also be reported using a link at the bottom of the form. You can also report the Facebook page and event as a scam.

We encourage everyone to remain vigilant and question the source and validity of events like these that hint at being linked to the University or Union. If in doubt, check the official University or Union Facebook Page for confirmed official student events or feel free to contact the Union on help@lusu.co.uk. Please share this information to prevent the event spreading further.
