Description

I was approached Via Twitter DM. She said her name was Julie Leach the Michigan Powerball Power play winner. And that she is doing a $50,000 giveaway and then linked a YouTube video of the real Julie Leach talking with local news about her winnings. I was supposed to give my name, phone number and address. And then message the number 1-859-691-9504 thru WhatsApp that I'm ready to receive my winnings. At that point I realized. I guess it's due to the holiday season and money being a blessing but I fell for it.
