Approached to become a brand ambassador on TikTok, is this a scam?

I post pet videos, only have a few hundred followers.

some pet company messaged me and said I could be an ambassador for them. So they say I can choose a free bed or blanket, I’ll get a code for 30% discount I can post that people can click on and use, I will get £100 deposited in my “ambassador account”. All I have to do is post a video of my dog with the product and tag them.

I get these and I barely post! I just ignore them.

With only a few hundred followers, yes, I would assume there is some catch.

Scam. I get those messages all the time on Instagram.

That was my thought.

I used to get them a lot on Instagram it always looked like mass produced crap for tiny dogs. I don't allow messages or comments from people I don't follow now so they can't pester me anymore

I have posted five pictures on instagram. I get these too.

That’s a good idea, will investigate my settings.
