Detroit Zoo warns of discount ticket scam

The Detroit Zoo said a post offering a pack of tickets for a discount is a scam.

The scam, which appears as a sponsored post on Instagram, advertises four tickets for $9.95 in celebration of the zoo's 100th anniversary. The post includes a link that directs to a third-party website not affiliated with the zoo.
