In 2019, Lady Gaga's Little Monsters created a fake Starbucks promotion called #SHALLOWBUCKS where they tricked twitter users into streaming Shallow from A Star is Born (2018) for a free Starbucks drink, to help the song reach Number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, after Lady Gaga's live performance with Bradley Cooper at the Oscars. The iconic scam went viral and created a legacy on stan twitter, where stans would attempt to trick locals with similar scams.
Here is the video that Mike's Mic created on the topic when it happened in 2019. I highly recommend you watch it, as well as all the other videos on their channel! • The iconic #SHALLOWBUC...

I agree, I don't mind them tricking the locals or anything but the starbucks employees had to go through people constantly asking about the drink, tweeting about it multiple times and I also heard that some were harassed, there's nothing funny and iconic about that.

As soon as I saw fknico's bio as "graphic designer" I knew immediately that he was the one started the fake poster. Graphic designers are known to make mock posters of an existing brand for practice. I know this while studying graphic design in college. Despite being a fake poster, he really did a great job artistically imo.

Agreed! Although something I've observed in myself (and am assuming others might as well), is that when something is shared by a friend, I presume they've done their due diligence or that they have more information than I do. So even if something is shared that's not by a verified account, it's just an example of something that's really happening. I could easily see myself sharing this post saying "I haven't tried yet, but in case it's real" and then a mutual of mine assuming it was indeed a real offer.

No! I used to have a Stan Twitter account and it got suspended. All Stan accounts on Twitter have to make it clear they aren't impersonating a celebrity and aren't affiliated with a celebrity and even then, they might still get suspended. So many popular stan accounts get deleted and they have to gain all their followers back.

I just wanna enjoy artists I like and I am proud to see them in a position higher than other artists that I don't really listen to, but then I have the knowledge that their number of streams was very inflated by people playing it on numerous devices while probably not even listening to the songs at all. But that's kind of what they have to do because that's the exact same thing being done for every artist :/

I feel bad for all the Starbucks employees (and anyone else this has happen to) who had to deal with assholes about this. And also, maybe it’s just me but if I had a song and it got number one this way I would feel like I didnt actually earn it. It was scammed to the top and we will never know how well the song actually would have done with people just sharing it.
