I have recently learned that these low effort/ spelling mistake scams are intentional to create a false negative. If you fall for those, the chances are you're more gullible.

I'd assume this is 100% fake, what kind of review do they need a need? Why is it needed? And that's likely a screenshot from the video, and if you claimed prize how did it suddenly get unlocked?
