I WAS CONTACTED ON MESSENGER BY AN OLD HIGHSCHOOL FRIEND USING HER FACEBOOK PHOTO BY WISHING ME A HAPPY BIRTHDAY. A FEW DAYS LATER SHE ASKED ME HOW I HAVE BEEN AND WE EXCHANGED SOME SMALL TALK. SHE ASKED IN THE CONVERSATION IF I HAD RECEIVED HER PREVIOUS MESSAGE REGARDING WORLDWIDE GRANT ORGANIZATION. MY RESPONSE WAS NO AND SHE EXPLAINED THAT SHE HAD RECEIVED $100k AND MY NAME WAS ALSO ON THIS GRANT LIST TO RECEIVE THE SAME. I LAUGHED ABOUT IT AND CALLED IT A JOKE, SHE RESPONDED BY URGING ME TO CONTACT THE PERSON LISTED ABOVE AND THEIR PHONE NUMBER. I DIDN’T RESPOND AFTER THAT AND CONTACTED MY FRIEND DIRECTLY. SHE OF COURSE SAID THAT WAS NOT HER AND POSTED ON FACEBOOK WARNING OF THE SCAMMER. HER FACEBOOK PAGE IS TONI NUNES THISSEN.
