I recently got a message from a Facebook friend , whom I really don’t know. Asking me have I heard information on me wining a cash prize.

They called the organization FFA, which stands for FACEBOOK FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. The Catch to this is when I found out that you have to paid them money up front in order to received you cash prizes.

there are two people involved in this operation and that is the friend whom message me on Facebook messager and the contact person who later text me from my facebook account. The facebook friend gave me this information on the contact person: ***** ** ************************************************************************ I need the ScamPulse.com To look into this , so I can know if I have been scam or is the company legit.

Here is a transcript of conversation:

10:08AM

You are now connected on Messenger.

Hello

11:59AM

Me: Hello friend. How are you?

I’m doing pretty good and you?

Me :Okay. I am looking for a Project Manager job and doing some open Mic nights in comedy. Are you still with the Women’s Foundation? If yes how is it going?

Yes I am its going great good to hear from you I saw your name on the FFA list have you heard about it

Me: What is FFA list?

It is About FACEBOOK FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE given randomly to all (working,retired,parents,disabled)to take care of kids,buy houses, pay rents and Maintain the standard of living for 2018,Have you heard from them?

Me: No. Wonder how I got on their list. Lol I am going now to find it.

I got $50,000 from them and I saw your name on the list, so I thought I would see if you have gotten yours did you get it?with their help I was able to continue with the foundation

Me: Lee I find this a little hard to believe. Why would Facebook be giving away money? Where is this list so I can see for myself? I have found no info on this.

I think you should contact them 4072552900 text their agent and ask that you want to know if your name is still on the eligible list

Me: Sounds good. I will do this in the am and keep you posted. Thank you for thinking of me. How is your son?

Please let me know when you get this

I have reported this to Facebook and alerted other friends on their list.

Smith Pellar Smith on Facebook private messaged me to tell me she saw my name on the Facebook Financial Assistance list and wanted to know if I had gotten my $$. She said she got $150K. She gave me the e mail address and said to send a friend request and to contact me right away. I’m almost certain this is a scam to get my personal information.
