"The Weekly Deal" Facebook Page - it is a Scam
an anonymous user from: Weston, West Virginia, United States

I have been contacted by Weekly Deals saying I won the sweepstakes, but I MUST send a cash amount to an agent to get the 10 digit number, so they can send my mercedes, 1,000,000$ and 50,000$. Plus, they need my bank info to set up payments. Also I CANNOT tell anyone about my winnings until I pay and they update their stuff. Who should I report them to. They guarantee the money and prizes will be here the day I send the money.
