I am from Holland now retired in Lagos, Portugal. I received messages about the so-called Online Facebook Lottery 2019 in September from a woman named Linda R. Joseph, who said she was in charge of assisting the lucky winners how to claim their prize. She presented a winnerslist of 20 people from around the world that were promised $500,000 and more. Some of them had already cancelled the receipt of the money for obvious reasons. In order to have the money transported through FedEx I was instructed to purchase Google Play Cards worth $500. She warned me several times during the lengthy conversation on Messenger that I was not supposed to tell anyone about the whole thing because otherwise scammers could come in and take away the money. When I finally decided to advise her that the lottery was non existant and a Scam, she replied that the FBI and the Security Dept. of FB had put out warnings on internet to ”protect the winners from being scammed” ! Besides I informed the CEO of FB Mark Zuckerberg and the second in command Mrs. Sheryl Sandberg about the scam trusting they will start an investigation real soon and one day later I noticed that the writings of Linda Joseph were removed from Messenger as well as the announcement of the prize on top of my FB pages. Moreover, the account of Linda is also temporarily removed. The main office of this fraudulent business organisation is chaired by a Mr. Steven Patterson and his email address was [email protected] He also tried to convince me that there was nothing to worry about and that the lottery is real not a scam ! Let us hope and pray that the perpetrators will be dealt with accordingly thanks to Mark Zuckerberg and his collegues.
