Description

I was message on Tic Tok in box. It came from Keem (@ma.nuel_franc.o) The message said, "Congratulations to you, your profile was selected as a winner part of my giveaway program and hereby you have been awarded a case prize of $30,000. Are you ready to claim your winnings now.?? I asked why me and why my profile because there was nothing on my profile. The individual continued, " You were selected randomly to benefit from my charity project aimed of touching lives and helping people as god as blessed me and am giving back to the needy as givers never lack. I want you to know that am not here to hurt anyone because winning the Powerball lottery felt like a blessing to me and I'm eager to give some of the money to others. is it wrong to help others though.? The individual continued and finally asked for my name and where I am from, I gave the individual a nick name, I am still skeptical at this point. Then the person asked "Ok, So tell me what are your plans to do with your $30,000 winning money when you get it? I shared what I would do. They then replied, "Alright, that's good, Roman 8:18. The pain you're feeling now can not compare to the joy that's coming. Ok, I just wanna be sure you make use of the money properly like others. You are to provide this informations because your winnings will be sent to you through FedEx. Full name....... Address....... So I probably should not have but I did provide my address and my nick name... They then said, "Alright your details have been forwarded to the agent all you need to do now is send a text message to the FedEx Shipping agent online at 1-269-985-6674 Write your name, winning amount and tell them you're from Mr. Manuel Franco's Charity Project. OK I haven't done anything after this. It feels sketchy, so I google information and was led to this.
