Type of a scam Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes

I'm getting texts and phone calls from a phone number and the person claims to be Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Facebook. They told me I won $100,000 but I need to go to Walmart and purchase 2 iTune gift cards for myself for my wife for $35 each. He told me to scratch off the cards and give him the numbers on the back. Then he had a man call with a foreign accent and he told me he was coordinating the delivery of my money. I get texts all of the time.

Today, my husband was on Facebook, and he got a message from someone pretending to be his friend. The message was that Publishers Clearinghouse had teamed up with Facebook to give away money. The message said that within 15 minutes of receiving a copy of his drivers license, they would be at his house with a check. The same person messaged me, she asked how he was doing, while he was talking to him on Facebook. I asked her if she was scamming my husband, and she said no, she swears on the Bible it's not a scam. I said send proof. She said she couldn't, she was on vacation.

Jane Johnson contacted me on Facebook messenger saying I won 600,000.00 on a random Facebook drawing and to claim prize I had to buy 4 $100.00 I Tune cards and call them back . I actually googled Facebook support and got the same story from them that I did win, but the 4 I tunes cards would help verify my identity. This has to be a scam, why do I have to spend money to collect lottery winnings NOT

was supposed to call them back after purchasing my cards, not gonna happen

I was on Facebook started yesterday at about 1:30pm 11-9-17, I finally stopped about 1pm this afternoon 11-10-17, the picture wouldn't upload and I went on Google to find the number for Facebook customer service. I found the number 1-877-250-5999 online and a man answered he said his name was Kevin, then he said Jeffrey and Keith, but when I would call it was the same man. He sounded like he had an arabian accent. When I called I told the man I couldn't upload my picture profile on Facebook. And he said that someone had hacked into my Facebook account and used my identity in Uruguay, Uganda, Colorado, Illinois and California. He said I was going to go to jail and be found guilty and he said I had to buy an I Tunes Card and give them the code and they would be able to protect my account from hackers and block them. He asked what did you spend, I said I didn't spend anything, and he asked what did Kevin ask you to do, and I said I shouldn't have to pay to upload pictures to Facebook and he hung up me. He hung up on me every time I called. I went to my bank to get an I Tunes Card and they told me it was a scam, and I told him that and he hung up on me. He has me my name, where I was from, what school I went to, he asked me for my date of birth.

I have various business pages and have used the boost function to boost my postings. I have spent a lot of money in these and when I go to see who supposedly likes my page I got wierd names. After looking into each of those name they look like they may be real but 99% of them only post an updated profile picture and they all look like they were staged. You can’t tell me that EVERYONE only post an updated picture and that’s it? I have spent $100s in boosting

I called a number for Facebook that I found on google search engine as I was locked out of my account. The person said that I needed to go buy a $50- iTunes card and he would b able to get my account back up so I did but then he said I needed to buy 2 more for my phones because I had a virus that was spreading to everything He didn't do anything to help of course and I gave him the number on the iTunes card which he said was used to allow " teamviewer" into my account. . He got irate when I said I don't have the $ and I got really suspicious so I went into task manager and kept deleting his connection then I called ATT and they had a service for $15- a month that takes care of your computer when you have a virus or what ever your problem is so she was able to restore my account for me and my google email account.

When I tried calling the number back it was a time sharing business. I knew better but desperate and fell into a stupid spell! I have lonely friends on Facebook that have been scammed from men however I have my settings locked down tight. I now have 2 step verification on all my accounts.

I am locked out of my Facebook account stating that I have malicious software on my computer however I do not. I have used several applications to scan my computer, not to mention that friends and family can log into their accounts using my computer. I also get the same message if I attempt to use my cell phone for this account. They are trying to force me to download software onto my personal computer.

I was contacted thru Facebook by Mary James who asked me to befriend her. She told me I was picked by Facebook to receive a $600,000 in winnings. She wrote, hello, I am Mary from the Facebook head office. i was authorized to pass some information to you thru your Facebook account. but before I proceed I would like to know if you have heard about our ongoing Facebook promo 2017 and have any of our staff contacted you about your winnings. So i will connect you with CEO himself, Mr. Mark so that he can help you claim you winnings and guide you through while you confirm this information in order to forward it down to his office. What is your name, gmail and phone number so that i can forward it down to his office. Okay good and you can also contact him on his office mail [email protected]. Kindly reply to your email now, sir. The CEO has left you a text now on your hangout. I went to the hangout and there was a picture of zukerbarc, I guess that was him. She wrote kindly reply to your hangout now, okay? You have been contacted on your gmail account, so kindly reply to your gmail okay? Go to your hangout, go and check it. I get a text that I should call 1 913 214 1517. They told me the package would be delivered today by Fed Ex but it did not come.

This morning, the Fed Ex office person will contact me to deliver the check. Fed Ex driver was on route. Got called by Fed Ex said the check is official.I called the Fed Ex guy and he said there was a glitch with the financial institution and I would need to give him $800 within 3 days or the offer will be removed. The documentation they showed me shows the presidential seal and official looking government documents. I contacted the number they gave me and the guy there does wood working and has gotten several calls. I did try to call Facebook through Google and it sounded like it was in Indonesia.

I have a face book account and for the past few days I have been harassed by "friends" whom, I suspect, have been hacked. They urged me to contact a Stephanie Yvette George, who claims to be a Harvard Lawyer. It is, supposedly, to collect government funds, tax free, in exchange for my sending her a hunk of my own money! Having heard of such scams by Today Show's Jeff Rossen, I was on the watch for such things. Ms. George appears to be in cahoots with a Deborah Bearden West.

I just tried to access Fcebook from my desk top computer. I was on it less than an hour ago. It was fine. Facebook wanted me to log in again, and then will not let me on. Says I have malicious viruses, and I need to download THEIR virus protection. Of course I won't. I'm not going to, because my computer is fine. I'm a nut about keeping it clean. I did a full scan after a fresh update. I don't have any viruses. I'll have to use my phone until this is resolved I guess. I don't download anything....ever. I'm not having any luck resolving this issue.
