It looked ligit.I have uploaded the screen shots of the conversation.I ask for more information. He just assured me it was safe. I was alerted when he did not send me to an official

approached through Facebook to give social security number and other ID information to get access to cash

He claimed to be from the Department of Heath & Human Services.

A friend of mine told me about her. That you can get a government Grant that you don't have to pay back. Well I signed up for it and she said I had to pay for a delivery so I ask how much is that going to cost she said $200 so I sent it to her and than she needed more money so I sent it and she said FedEx was going to deliver it to me I said okay. Now she is send me a fake picture and saying they got stop by the FBI and she said I need $300 more to have it release from IRS and I told her I don't have it it was supposed to be a $50,000 in a box to be ship to me so I ask her for a refund and she said because that was to activate my winnings. So what can I do about this? Thanks hope to hear from you soon and I still have got nothing yet.

Someone on messenger acted like my mother even used her account on messenger to give me a website saying they were giving grants for people in need when I contacted the person he asked that much a questions said he was filling out my application then he said I qualified. Then he asked for money $5,000 would get you 50,000 10,000 would get you $100,000. The all the way up to 50,000 would get you a million dollars that's when I knew I was being defrauded but what really bothers me is somebody has hacked in to my mother's account on messenger to lure me to that person. And it is clearly a scam. The person who acted like my mother gave me a website to contact which was a person I'll give you the website http/m.me/agentdunlapmark

Well it all started about a month ago. One of my Church sisters ask me about a free government grant that I really knew nothing about. Well I went for it but not being told about the money that I had to pay out. All together $3,000 dollars and yet no money . Suppose to be free. Now this the catch here, I called American Express to see the balance on the last gift card which was $500.00 and found out the card had already been used for a purchase at The Coach Factory in Jacksonville Fla. I can’t believe how deceitful people really are.

Called me and left a voicemail saying they were my student advisor and that my eligibility for the student loan forgiveness program was going to expire if I didn’t call back and verify some information.

Phone call. When we asked to be removed from the call list, he began cursing at me. 2028914734
