The Facebook Jackpot Lottery Scams: Beware
The Facebook Jackpot Lottery Scams  Beware

There is NO Facebook Jackpot or lottery. Therefore, Facebook and other online users are asked to delete messages or Facebook posts, which claim that they have won the same jackpot. Also, they should not follow the instructions in the messages or posts. This is because the messages or posts are being sent by lottery scammers. Every month, thousands of the same lottery scamming messages or social networking posts are sent out by scammers to trick their potential victims into sending their personal information and money to claim bogus prizes or lottery winnings.

Victims of the Facebook Jackpot lottery scam should report it to the police and should know that legitimate lottery companies will never ask their winners to send them their personal information, or send them money in order to receive their lottery winnings.

The scammers are currently using this email address: facebookjackpotuk@outlook.com

facebookjackpotuk2-outlook.com - rec'd similar message from 656566 on phone and advised to contact. Although I don't have any Facebook or email account to communicate with them. It appears to be 0.00000000001% genuine, the rest could be fake. I am leaving the whole text here, if anyone finds them interesting or has some money to spare.

YOUR FACEBOOK ACCOUNT USER HAS AWARDED 6OO,OOO CASH TO GET YOUR AMOUNT SEND YOUR NAME ADDRESS NUMBER AT OUR EMAIL: facebookjackpotuk2-outlook.com

However blessings to all involved, that is least I can say. And will pray on Sunday, that should BE LESS (BLESS) of these folks.
