The scammer used a name of a Facebook friend of mine (with a picture of the friend that was altered to make it look like the actual friend), but when I realized this Trust Community Foundation Trust was a scam (thanks to Google search), I checked the facebook page of the one who messaged me about this scam, wondering why I was not a part of it (supposedly I was on a list to get some trust funding...but the scam claims you have to pay for the shipping of the check..the scammer claimed he got over a hundred thousand dollars!) I did not fall for the scam and told "him" that I would investigate this foundation. The scammer messaged me on facebook using a fake account based on a facebook friend of mine. It started out with a friend request (since I had forgotten I had already friended this actual friend), then the "friend" asked me if I got money from this foundation and I said never heard of it, so this "friend" scoffed about it. Told the "friend" I would investigate, and after investigating finding out it was a scam, I unfriended this "friend." Then I tightened my facebook page/account privacy and security. Thing is, I did not fall for the scam, but the fake scammer pretending to be a friend of mine ought to be investigated.

I was selling an item on Facebook marketplace and he tried to get $700 through Zelle. He was supposed to be sending me $200 which I never received then I received a email supposedly from Zelle saying that they needed $500 as proof of who I was and that I was supposed to send back the $500 to Mr Milan after he deposited it into my account. And it had a logo from Bank of America on the top of the email but it was supposed to be from zell however I never received any funds. Not the initial $200 nor the additional $500.

I messaged them to schedule a appointment to look at the apartments. since the one potential people continuously was responding I thought they seemed eager to show the unit. Once they were more needing with needing a security deposit and application fee I thought a lot of people were interested in signing the lease. I sent one payments $100 though Venmo that's attached to my wells Fargo checking acct to each person to secure my spot. This was for the application fee. Then after an hour or so they said their attorney will review the documents and fill out residential application form. I also made couple payments through zelle wells fargo of $500. I called wells fargo claims dept an told them the situation and to file claims an have ref #'s to those payments. Impersonators said these payments would be refundable and would be sent back if you decided not to pursue the apartments. I request the money to be refunded within two of making the payment.

Attempted to sell me a dog agreed to meet and us only pay a pet deposit of 250 now and rest in person. Then the next day said I needed to pay rest right then because someone else wanted the dog for more. I told him we will do what was originally agreed then he offered to give me my deposit back. I said ok and never received it, he said he sent it but couldn’t show me proof then stopped replying back to me.

The owner takes a persons cans and bottles for redemption and does not count every can they are given so that they do not have to give the customer back what they are supposed to be paid in return.

Was to receive 100 postage stamps. Never received I have tried 4 xs in the last year communicating through email. They said 4xs that product was sent never received yesterday tracking number said I picked up in Fairbanks, AK. That would be difficult to do since I live in Pennsylvania and have never been to Fairbanks.. it was not a large amount of money lost less than 100 dollars but it is the principal of the scam.

The person who contacted me via text on Messenger is Bob Lutrick. He refers me to Glen Landry, who has a Facebook web page called "PAS Program". PAS = pandemic assistance program, ???? ?????? Mr. Lutrick. Supposedly the federal government will pay out grants in five or six figures to individuals with few restrictions. I am to contact Glen Landry to determine whether we qualify.

An online query for this program in my state indicates it is available specifically to small businesses, not to individuals. We are not a small business. It appears the funding is administered by the states, and how it is allocated therefore varies by state.

I also found a federal government website indicating these grants are limited to lower-income families with children. We are neither.

https://www.acf.hhs.gov/ofa/faq/pandemic-emergency-assistance-fund

To virtually guarantee that my wife and I as individuals are eligible for a 5 or 6 figure payout sounds too good to be true, and you know what they say about that. I smell a rat, but I do not yet have the documentation to prove it.

I went on Upwork to find employment and I was contacted and subsequently interviewed by a company claiming to need a proofreader. The interview was on Skype only. I filled out a questionnaire online, then they said they would have something posted on Skype in an hour. Later I checked and was informed I had gotten the position. Then I was sent a contract about my position and the wage I would receive. I signed it and sent it back as a PDF. The next day I was contacted by my "supervisor" who sent me a list of items I needed to do the job, such as a Mac Book Pro, an HP printer and a few kinds of software, including Microsoft Word, which I found strange since they wanted me to work on a Mac. I asked if I was expected to buy these items and the "supervisor" informed me that they would send a check to a vendor and then let me know where to pick the items up from. I told them that my brand new Surface computer had specs far superior to those they were listing, and so did my Canon printer, but they insisted. It was then that I realized that this might be a scam since no one is just sending out Mac Books. I looked online and found out on the Upwork site that there were posts about this same scam, which was under the company name of SandVIper (this was on the contract I signed) and how it was a scam. I then went to the SandViper websites (Facebook and the organic site) and realized that there was very little for sale on those sites (they are supposed to be a athletic clothing company) and virtually no contact info. I think this company is being used as a shell company to collect the information of unsuspecting victims and use it for whatever reason. Thank goodness I did not fill out a W9, but there was another victim on Upwork who was very afraid since she actually did give them lots of info. At the very least I want someone to figure out if this is a legitimate company, or if scammers are using it. I would also like for Upwork to be contacted and do a lot more to take the scammers off of their site. Their attitude is that it's basically the problem of the victim. I think all of this is unacceptable. This is the Upwork community post where all the victims are talking about it: https://community.upwork.com/t5/Freelancers/edited-scam/m-p/1144202

There is also a secondary site: https://sandviper.com/

This site looks photoshopped. This is the original posting: https://www.upwork.com/jobs/~01acb0c48969211dee

I also have screen shots of the Skype conversations with the initial contact person and the "supervisor" who came on later.

A person of HHS official to issue a government grant to issue Grants post on Facebook and text me from a friend's acct hacked his and my account. He said that if I gave him $250 I could get it within a day and he would take a Google Play card I did $50 in Google Play and ask for the rest and I noticed all the messages were erased thank God I took screenshots of everything and I told Facebook that it was a scam and he had my account locked. Then it got deleted he deleted it because he changed my email and password linked to my acct. He even had you take a picture of your id for verification it was you for the grant and sent me a authentication paper. The authentication with an eagle in the American flag on it and send that as proof of the grant there was housing repairs and others..

Miriam Ackerman from Louisiana made a post on the Facebook page Saitama Token (Official Cryptocurrency) of which he is a moderator and operator of the page Saying quote:

"To make the deal sweeter! ONLY community members who hold Balloon Fiesta NFT's will be eligible to the 2 Million dollars giveaway I promised when Saitama hits $1.00. This is to show appreciation to those who support our project. Get yours today! #saitama"

My understanding that giveaways/raffles/sweepstakes of this magnitude are illegal in the United States when a person is forced to pay for entry. The cost to purchase the Balloon Fiesta NFT through Saitama Realty is roughly $43

In the comments of this post he included the Saitama website with a link to more information about this raffle/giveaway. No where in the original post on Facebook nor on the link to the official Saitama website does it offer entry without purchase of the Balloon Fiesta NFT.

This person is a Con Artist pretending to help people with their rental needs but pocketing the money & making excuses about her services. I paid her for he services & she hasn’t completed the job & when I complained about it she refused a refund,then her & her spouse went on to belittle me & get rude & unprofessional. After speaking with other displeased customers I’ve learned that they’re scammers. Their company is not legit & they’re stealing money from hard working people.
