Just Got An Attempt At A Scam on Facebook

Recommended Posts

 
 

I've said it before, but will repeat....

 

If these scumbags put 1/2 the effort into making an honest living, as they do trying to scam people, they'll probably be legitimately well off!

It was easy.  If they would have kept going I could have just ignored them.  Also I unfriended the fake account, so that stopped the messages.  And really, they are looking to make the scam work with minimal effort, so they are not going to keep going past a certain point.  THIS scam, anyways.

Not sure what there is to be "done" with.  It's a profile of a person I know that had been faked, and I accepted the request.

well, did ya do it?, has to do with fanatics. got a few in the family. Social/Citizen says it all. those at the top/those at the bottom. not necessarily political, in the sense that Charlie Manson was a fanatic, an those that followed him were stuck in a world that was fanaticism. following a loony-toon. See "Jim Jones".
