A friend messaged me about winning $90000. From a government grant and she told me to contact them. I only did because I new her from church. I desperately need money to help my family. She gave me the contact address and I messaged her.

And I had to pay $2000 for the release of the money &Fed X. Almost every gift card was compromised. I had to keep getting gift cards to replace all the compromised previous cards. Something was always going wrong. By the time she told me FedX was on the way she messaged me that the IRS stopped them on the highway and said I’d have to pay another $1800 in taxes. Grants are not taxed. I never contacted her again. I’m including a picture of her Facebook
