Eagle-eyed shoppers have spotted suspicious details in an advert for a supposed Woolworths deal.
A video was circulating on TikTok showing a woman under a Woolworths sign making a special gift from a luxury tool cabinet for less than $50.
But viewers quickly realized the clip was fake due to some telltale signs, prompting Woolworths to confirm the ad was a scam.
The video showed a woman dressed casually, wearing a blue vest and a name tag, standing next to boxes of huge tool cabinets advertised for just $47.99.
It was under a Woolworths sign next to a bakery section and the label on the box also had the Woolies logo on it.
A video has been circulating on social media promoting a special on a luxury tool cabinet from Woolworths for $47.99. Many suspected the clip is a scam and Woolies confirmed it is fake.
Customers were skeptical that the images were legitimate, as the woman’s uniform and the bakery’s signs looked nothing like what shoppers typically see in Woolies stores.
“No Australian retailer uses scrubs like that, it’s a Walmart scrub,” one user noted.
“His fingers are a clear sign of AI,” said another.

Another pointed out that the Woolies sign on the roof was not connected to anything and looked overlapping.
A Woolworths spokesperson confirmed to FEMAIL that the post was a hoax and encouraged customers to be wary of offers they suspect may be fake.
“We would like to warn that this is a scam and is not run by Woolworths,” they said.
