“This is the online registration number. Today, quite a few parents came to register for admission directly," said the representative of the production unit Lightning fast kids season 5 for Youth Online know.
Perhaps this is a reluctance to register after many incidents of scamming parents on fake fanpages?
Carefully register Lightning fast kids
Ms. Lan, who lives in Binh Duong, brought her 7-year-old daughter to the casting Lightning fast kids from noon. She said she wanted her child to participate in such game shows so that he would be more intelligent and learn many things.
She said she was also almost fooled by fake fanpages of child talent competitions on television.
She said: "When I saw that page posting enrollment information, I went to ask and they directed me to Zalo or Telegram and told me to follow the instructions. At that moment, I knew I had been tricked, so I got out immediately."
She shared the secret to recognizing fake fan pages: "Next time, when reviewing a candidate recruitment page, I will look at when this page was created, are there any comments, and what is the content?
I tried writing a comment to see if my opinion was posted. From there, we will be able to filter out which ones are real and which ones are fake."
Lightning fast kids is a playground for children from 4 to 8 years old. Season 5 of the show returns after a 2-year hiatus.
It is expected that season 5 will have many changes to create something new and attractive to the audience.
As soon as the admission announcement was made on March 24 in Ho Chi Minh City, on the program fanpage, scammers continued to release information calling for casting nationwide.
The posted information is mainly copied from official information and purposefully adjusted, easily causing confusion for parents.
