The Facebook Freedom Lottery is a scam. Thousands of persons are receiving messages claiming that their names are on the Facebook Freedom Lottery (FFL) or Freedom Award Lottery Promotion Agency winners list. But, there is no Facebook lottery, and there has never been one. Therefore, Facebook users should ignore or delete any message that they have received claiming that they are Facebook lottery winners. And, Facebook users should never send money or personal information anyone in order to receive lottery prizes. Legitimate lottery companies do not ask their winners to send money or send personal information via email or social media in order to collect prizes.

Facebook User Luther Wright from Jersey City sent me that message and was very pushy about me not receiving my $2500,00 and when I told him to stop scamming and get off my page? He got very rude and cursed at me. I believe he is doing this to several other people. So beware of this scam cause it is real and he is pushing it...

"How to recover my Facebook account"

Oct. 20, 2018 at 7:22 PM by an anonymous user from: Washington, District of Columbia, United States

I receive a winner list name throughout Hangout App about the same thing together with Facebook, but this time is with Micheal Hanes talking through a text and he same me a picture of a FBI label called"Notice to all Facebook Lottery Winnners", where it said that the money extra is for the third party to send the money.

Can you let me know about this? because I was trying to find information about this and I found out that my friend put all my information without telling me and I do not want to be part of an Identity Theft or where another will use my information.

Aug. 13, 2018 at 4:11 PM by an anonymous user from: Denver, Colorado, United States

I got a message from a friend saying that we had won money and I should send a friend request to Mark Williams through a link. I soon received a message from Mark Williams saying that he would check the list to see if my name was on it. Sure enough, it was.

After a couple of more messages, said that I needed to send $1000 to a UPS manager that was in South Africa collecting money for starving orphans by Western Union and he would authorize the delivery of my $2000000 within 12 hrs. I started asking questions and he sent me pictures of PCH winners, how convenient.

He has gotten quite annoyed with me because I haven’t sent the money so that I can receive the delivery of my winnings. I asked why it mattered to him and he didn’t respond, just said, send the money. Of course, I am not sending any money. I just wish that I could let him know how ridiculous he is. I am not paying money to get winnings that I didn’t win.

I am being scammed. This lady said she works with Facebook. And she said I won $1.5 Million. She said the computer pick my name. Plus she won't give me the right FedEx company. She gives me the drivers number. And I know they don't give their numbers out. Does this lady work for Facebook?

The lady is using this name Marissa Nicole Ostrander. Is she real or fake. They want me to send money to FedEx $750.00 . She said she works for general Agent in facebook. I am sick of scammers and hackers on my Facebook page.

Jun. 11, 2018 at 4:45 PM by info

She is a fake. There is no Facebook lottery or promotion, so please do not send your money to the scammers or thieves.

Apr. 21, 2018 at 11:44 PM by an anonymous user from: Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

They asked me to pay $650 dollars on iTunes to be approved & then another 2 thousand to process the Certificate. That is a scam. A lady I don't know at all kept asking if I received my winnings & I said no because I have to pay for it.

It has left me short on rent. Keep away from Michael Lane they kept promising me after I pay 650 of itunes. Guess what a hidden cost of $2000 dollars to process Certificate. Don't trust this B*****d & saying he is trying hard for me what utter rubbish.

Mar. 22, 2018 at 2:55 PM by an anonymous user from: Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

They just got me, my address and my drivers license. Now I’m so upset.
