Is the Facebook MacBook giveaway legitimate?

Of course it is true. You can get a MacBook if your birthday is in January. You can get a MacBook in February, March, or any other month. Yes, Apple will provide it. You just have to pay for it like everyone else.

Of course it is not true.

This is 100% a scam

You’re welcome.

Be careful, the internet is riddled with such scam attempts.

Do not fall for free Apple product scams including common ones like:

• Fraudulent emails and other messages that look like they're from legitimate companies, including Apple
• Misleading pop-ups and ads that say your device has a security problem 
• Scam phone calls or voicemails that impersonate Apple Support
• Fake promotions that offer free products and prizes
• Unwanted Calendar invitations and subscriptions

For more information: Recognize and avoid phishing messages, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support

Definitely not true.

At best, a sleazy attempt to get you on some advertising list(s), by dangling the promise of a valuable prize that few – if any – of the people being spammed will ever receive. Like those "claw" machines in restaurants and in arcades that make it look so "easy" to get something valuable; where on closer inspection, you find that the "claw" machine is stocked with cheap knock-offs and that the odds of snagging even one of them are close to NIL.

Or worse, the prelude to the type of scam where once the scammers have your information, they clean you out …

is it possible to remove all these kinds of ads?
