Did anyone receive the Free Google Nest Mini? I received it BUT...got charged on my Credit Card for it.

I would assume it is because there is the slight chance that there could be fake emails copying this promotion. If they give a definite "yes" then the company would look bad to anyone who got tricked by a fake, legit looking, email.

So I took the risk after reading these posts - when I clicked, it took me to the Google store - my name and address were already there - no need to enter a code or a credit card as I am linked via PayPal - this was what my receipt looked like:

Subtotal:

$49.00

Promotional Discount:

-$49.00

Estimated Tax:

$0.00

Shipping:

$0.00

Total:

$0.00

I received an email regarding the free nest mini as well.  Will you let me know if it is legitimate?

[BariVaz]

Same - none of the choices are appropriate. Is the email I received legitimate? Need to be sure before entering credit card info.

[Poochkers]

I just received mine in the mail. Checked my bank account and there was nothing taken out for it. So it is legit.

Everytime I try to redeem this offer I get an error code from google. I have tried to put different payment options but it always fails.

I received an email about getting a free google mini. Is this legitimate or phishing?

Hi Pandora team,

I also received this email and reached out to the support team for confirmation. Unfortunately no one has replied to me. What should I do now?

Received the same offer on the 27th October. with a confirmation code etc.  Yes, it looks legit , but ,it has a different feel to Pandora emails I frequently get.  The email has a  domain of " ac.pandora.com" so it is either a phishing domain or a legit third party.

I read on another post that this offer can neither be confirmed or denied via this format.  Do not know the purpose of the CIA/NSA top secretiveness of whether the advertisement is legit or not.  It is either a valid promotion to subscibed Pandora listeners, or, it is a scam by an unknown party, to phish information.  It is within the rights of listeners to know either way. For example, if there was a data breach and listener informmtion was compromised.   I certainly would like to know where and who this originated from.  Certainly if legit, from Pandora or a Pandora affiliate / contractor, I would like to take advantage of the offer, but do not feel comfortable at this time without proper confirmation, from Pandora, of its validity.

Thank you.
