Lottery Scam - There is No "Multi-State/Island Powerball and Facebook Grant(MUPFG)"

There is no "Multi-State/Island Powerball and Facebook Grant(MUPFG)," therefore, online users who have received email or text messages that are being sent by lottery scammers, claiming they are winners in such a lottery or promotion should delete them. They should also not follow the instructions in the fake email or text messages. Remember, every month, lottery scammers send out thousands of lottery scamming email messages in an attempt to trick the recipients into thinking they have won the lottery.

Once potential victims respond to the fake lottery scamming email messages, they will be asked by the lottery scammers to send thousands of dollars, which the scammers will claim are for taxes and other fees that the potential victims must pay in order for them to receive their so-called lottery prizes. But, once the lottery scammers receive the money sent by their victims, they will disappear, leaving the victims disappointed, frustrated and thousands of dollars broke.
