Facebook has become too big for its britches and has taken their social media platform to a new level, they have taken the Nigerian scams and moved the scams to their social media, advertising scams from fake Chinese scammers, laptops of all makes and models that go for several hundred dollars for less than $100, Samsung flat screens that for go for several hundred dollars for less than $100, alleged Amazon returns in the form of a pallet full of merchandise supposedly worth hundreds of dollars, thousands of dollars, for a tiny fraction of the cost, mystery camera box with hundreds of dollars worth of gear for a fraction of the cost. I was stupid, purchased two items, a mystery camera box, supposed to be a large box, for around $50, took a month to receive two tiny packages no bigger than a pack of cigarettes, with nothing at all what they advertised on Facebook, also purchased a 17 inch Dell laptop for $99, made this purchase nearly a month ago, have never seen anything on this purchase.

Both of these purchases were made through Paypal, and those folks are as guilty as Facebook for being willing to make bogus payments to these Chinese scammers! Both Facebook and Paypal need to be held accountable for these scams out of China, and I want Facebook to pay me my money back with interest, and stop running these false bogus misleading scams countless times every single day, you report one, another one pops up somewhere else on the social medias platform. Mark Zuckerberg is a [censored] and should lose every dime he has being complicit with these Chinese scammers!!!

I received a text saying that I won money from a Facebook representative last night. She messaged me this morning and stated that I would need to send $425 as soon as possible. She told me if I contacted anyone that I would not be eligible for any winnings. I believe this is a scam.

My Facebook account was hacked. Someone was impersonating me on Facebook Messenger. They posted my picture next to the message. Several of my friends received messages that appeared to be from me. The message stated I received $50,000 from the Government. The money was free. Call phone number 917-503-9997. Three on my friends called me and asked if I sent them this message. None of my friends sent money..

I called them thinking it was Facebook. Someone answered the phone as a Facebook employee. They had me to go to Walgreen's and Schnucks and spent a total of $500 on gift cards. They tried to get more money out of me also. This was a scam and I want to inform everyone about it. I looked them up on Google.

Claimed to be Facebook customer service. But when they asked for banking information, the consumer became suspicious. Then they started to text her claim that they had deposited money into her account she told them that she was going to report them. They responded with profanity.

I got a message from my friend on FB saying she got a grant and I could get one too. They are asking for $500 to get $20,000. My mother got the message as well. They even lowered the amount to $200. They want us to buy a giftcard and once the giftcard number is confirmed, they would deliver the money to my door in cash. I said I was scared, I'm 3 months behind. They said not to be scared.

Was trying to help a friend who is a new business owner and was having problems and looked up the customer support number for Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/help/community/search/?query=facebook%20support There is a (866) 380-3888 listed to contact. I called them and they answered as facebook. The woman asked for my name, which I gave as all fb accounts have a user name associated. She made me repeat it a second time so it was clear. She then started talking about how I qualified for a $100 Visa card and that I only had to pay a processing fee. I told her we were not interested and that we only needed support with my friends FB Shop and she hung up on me. No other personal information other than full name was given but was worried about her possibly having recorded my name in my voice as she made me repeat it.

Pretended to be facebook customer service. needed my credit card information in order to assist for .95. They then proceeded to want to send me vitamins for 4.99 shipping and I know this leads to subscriptions which I told them I do not want. I was charged and disputed it with mu credit card company. My credit card company provided the company actual name as LWA Wellness Solutions, based out of Illinois.

Madison Morris claims I won $600,000.00 & a Facebook SUV. To claim the winning I must send $400.00 through western union or moneygram outlet.

Sense I can only upload one File, I uploaded the request to send it to.

I had to provide her with My TDL. Later when I asked her about it, She stated she did not have it, I have copies of every thing.

I was on Facebook and I saw winners of DHHS Facebook Empowerment Program. Part of the FBI. It is in conjunction with Bank of America. Offer $150,000. I would have to go to a Bit Coin machine and pay $550. Receive some type of certificate that you keep private. The money will be dropped off the same day by UPS. I received a text from my long list cousin that he received the money. Tommy Williams called me this morning. Phone number is 629-637-8792 He is an agent with the Department of Health and Human Services Facebook Foundation Empowerment Program. I did not know if it was a scam. I did not make a move on anything.

If you submit the payment tomorrow morning, by the end of the day, the shipping will start and will take about 3 days max to get to you, then you have 5 days to inspect it and decide if you want it or not, it will take about 20 minutes to see what kind of trailer it is ! Please let me know once payment is made and also once you get it and give me your first impression ! Thanks again for being solid on this.

Joe,

I just got an email from eBay saying that they have sent you the invoice with all details you need in order to complete this deal. Please check your messages, also check your bulk email folder (junk,spam), as a filter may have prevented it from reaching your primary inbox and let me know if you got it. Also, on the payment notification you will find their phone number where you can call and get more more info from their operators.

I will wait for your reply.

Thanks

I confirm receipt of your details and I'll start the official procedure through Ebay. They will contact you about this, you'll receive important guidelines + instructions in order to have a hassle free deal. At this point this is reserved for you.

Keep me posted, I will do the same.

Hello,

The 2015 PJ DUMP D2122 is in excellent condition, very clean. The Trailer has 500 miles, 5,200# Axles, 9,899# GVWR and I own a clean title under my name, with no accidents, loans or liens on it. The Trailer has good tires & brakes, needs nothing. It looks great inside-out, was never hit in and doesn't have any visible dings. The Trailer was recently fully inspected. The price was reduced to $800. Due to my divorce I owned this Trailer so I don't need it and I'm trying to get rid of it as soon as possible. If you have any other questions, or need more info, please feel free to ask. Please confirm that you received my email.

Best regards

Received a text from a scammer identifying self as Sheryl ******** notifying me that I had been selected as a Facebook Lottery winner in the amount of $6M. The scammer informed me that I should receive a text from a FedEx Courier with details of how to collect the prize. I then received a text from the FedEx Courier the following day informing me that I needed to purchase a $400 STEAM card. I verified that once purchased, I would supply him with the card's number. Once I received an affirmative response, I indicated that while I was born in the day it was not yesterday. The Courier asked me to trust him and that no one was after my money. He even sent me a photo of a mailing label with my name and address (I provided to the first person who texted me) and a box filled with stacks of $100 bills. When I indicated that I would not purchase nor provide the $400 until I received the prize money, which they promised would be delivered the following day @ 10AM, he indicated he would have to "hold" my prize until that request was fulfilled. I then sent the statement from ScamPulse.com re: legitimate lotteries do not ask for fees or payments. He then followed up with no one was after my money and the $400 was to cover expenses involved with delivering the prize. I again insisted that the $400 would be provided upon receipt of the $6M. I then blocked their numbers.

Below is verification information provided by the scammer of the prize:

Firstly your award is attached to lucky number ( ***********) Ticket number (*** ****** ), batch number *** * ******** ) and serial number * ********* **** * The code is ***********

I haven’t used Facebook for four years. I called Facebook to get it reinstalled. They had to go through security checks. I had to get them eBay cards. They were going to pay me back. I lost $290. They are very tricky because I’m extremely smart. They said my face was compromised by porn and all my pictures had been used. I felt I needed to go through the system till it was too late. Then I realized it was a scam. This is a major issue. I have no money to lose. Hopefully all of them will be judged properly when the time comes.
