Description
It claimed I had been selected randomly to win $500,000 from a foundation I have never even heard of, nor applied for “assistance” from. The scammer wanted personal information that if they were truly legitimate, they would already have. Why do you need my photo to give me money? Be careful. I didn’t give the scammer anything so they ended the conversation, but be aware.
