Description

I was contacted by a "Julie Leach" https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61580541539734 on facebook messenger stating that she was looking to give away $100,000 to a number of people. She instructed me to contact her agent ( "Agent Linda E Smith" https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61577706786218 ) for arrangements of collecting my information and delivery options. When asked for my full name, I requested a meeting stating that Michigan wasn't far away from me, and details can be discussed further in person. There was no response after stating to both of them I would come to them and deal with the specifics of this matter in person.
