I was asked if I wanted a free grant I didn’t have to pay back I had to buy google play cards totalling 150.00 and take pictures of them send them to him with my identification it was fake they took my money and stole my Facebook account and now are sending the same scam to all my people on Facebook please help
Today I was on Facebook and this guy posted to his story saying that he received a grant from David Bernhardt grant program, he told me to like the page and then inbox him and tell him that I am interested in the program and to keep him updated on everything. Once I had gotten to the page I go a weird vibe just based off (. Why would I be filling out anything regarding government funding through fb ) BUT okay lol . Proceeded to inbox the David B page and I knew just from him telling me to send my information separately that it was a complete waste of time and scam. ( I blocked both pages btw ) then when I told the guy who received a check that it could be a scam he replied and told me ( I got mines anyways) people know that we are living in crazy times right now and everything is just chaotic. People losing jobs, money low, families becoming homeless so they take advantage of people because of course once we hear or see something about money we hop on it. Please be careful and do your research before giving anyone your information! & PLEASE TRUST YOUR GUT. Everyone be safe and I hope this helped along with the screenshot I got of the persons fb account and the supposed check
Someone message me talking about a grant where they gotten 8000 back from and told me to like the page then message Agent David Bernhardt and ask about a grant. Page seem fake since all the pictures was uploaded 10 hours ago so I didn’t know even try to message the page. Im just here to warn people

They used agent David Bernhardt page who has all types of grants that you can apply for. The person said that they had got a $9500 cash grant from that person and showed me the check.
