Received message from Lydia Gord saying "I was lucky winner of $100,000 in the International Lottery in conjunction with Facebook" she posted a "list of winners" and when I Googled the supposedly chairman the only listing was an obituary for this person in April of 2015.

She repeatedly messaged me late at,early morning and even on Sunday... assuring this wasn't a scam. The supposedly "cashier" was a man by the name of Calvin Reece from Ferndale, Washington...this AM she messaged that she was forwarding me to a woman from Alberto,Calgary (Canada) this person posted a picture of a "winner" holding an oversized "check" which was dated 2015 and a package of a recent "winner" with no return address that supposedly contained his "winning" when I told her I was reporting this her reply was I have nothing else to say.

Both these individuals used very poor Grammar and had a lot of misspelled words

It is not fair to say that you won a lottery by your e-mail on Facebook. It is just cruel. I think I will get off Facebook and go elsewhere, as they are slimy worms.

A Rachel B Jones sent me friendship request. I only took it because it said in her profile she works for Facebook. Know she wrote to me over the messenger that I am the winner of 500.000,00$
I do not believe this so I thought to check if this could be real and found it is not. That is why I am writing to you. You should know about this scam.

What is going on here on facebook? Someone from "Facebook Lottery contacts me saying I'm a winner of 500,0000. To send money to release my money. I sent 500$ and am still being asked to send more. I don't understand if this is real or not. Some Facebook said it's real and the other said no its a scam. my problem here is that why is it so complicated to get a proper answer to my questions. Either there is or is not. Of course, I didn't want to miss out on money if being true. But at the same time, I'm out of money I sent. 500$ I COULD HAVE USED. I feel if this is a scam that facebooks, Mr, Zuckerberg should be held responsible. To pay back stolen money off his company's site.
