Email Starbucks coupon: All grounds, no coffee
If you fell for this one, you might be one of those people who bought that email about AOL acquiring Microsoft and sending you money. Coffee conglomerate Starbucks says that an email coupon for one free beverage that's making the inbox rounds is a hoax. The realistic-looking coupon promises recipients one free 12-oz. Creme Frappuccino, which is one of the chain's most recently introduced creamy, caffeinated concoctions. The emails started being passed around earlier this week. Starbucks Seattle headquarters got word of the jig on Tuesday and notified all of its outlets to quit honoring the coupons. Still, that was too late to stop a fair number of East Coast Starbucks shops from distributing free drinks, thanks to the time-zone difference. The coupons were based on actual coupons sent out earlier in the Washington, D.C., area.
