  • March 31, 2022 at 9:25 PM by an anonymous user from: Chelan County, Leavenworth, Washington, United States

  • January 31, 2022 at 3:10 PM by an anonymous user from: Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States

    I got a message from Dave Johnson, and from Mike Weirsky saying that I've been chosen to win money... and they said they are sending money through cash app. The number that texting is 214 area code... thats Dallas, Texas. I got excited at first because my grandson has a tumor in his brain and I really could use the money for his cares . If this is a scam- I just can't even believe people could do this 😭 but I have no money in my cash app that they could even steal . I don't know, this is all just very strange.

  • July 11, 2021 at 9:23 PM by an anonymous user from: Youngstown, Ohio, United States

    I have someone on Twitter telling I was chosen to win a cash prize if I sent my name, address, phone number & email address. That I just needed “to trust the process”.

  • April 23, 2021 at 6:55 AM by an anonymous user from: Downtown Redmond, Redmond, Washington, United States

    How can we report this, they contacted me yesterday.

  • April 21, 2021 at 11:00 AM by an anonymous user from: Loudonville, Albany, New York, United States

    This "Mister" contacted me on Twitter, told me I won 10k$

    Asked me for my name address, phone number and email.

    Then told me a Fed Ex will be sent and someone else will contact me...

    Then a certain John Mitchell, FedEx agent of Mr. Johnson sent me an SMS from the number (336) 505-8093

    Asking me to choose between different FedEx Options from $100 to $300.

    Of course, I have to send the money before and probably will never receive anything in return!

    Reported to Twitter, the know the account and are investigating.

  • August 25, 2020 at 2:22 AM by an anonymous user from: White Plains, New York, United States

    I got an ig message from Dave.johnson_1 on ig... he told

    Me I was going to be tested to win 30,000... the test was asking me what I would do with the money, I figured it was bull but I can’t sleep and I entertained it... he told me he was impressed with my answer... basically I said I would pay down credit cards and put a down payment on a home... 😆 he then told me “Go ahead message the online FedEx Agent by clicking on this link @fedexdeliveryy Follow and message saying ( I AM READY TO CLAIM MY MONEY TODAY. Do you understand me?”... still playing along I sent the message and the reply read “ Go ahead and fill the required informations below for my team to get the blessings to you.

    Full name:

    Full home address for delivery:

    Text number:

    Occupation:

    Cash receive amount”

    I asked if I can have it sent to the FedEx location because “you’re a stranger online and women are abducted daily” he said no... but later told me I can deliver it anywhere I want... when I told him I had researched this and that I knew it was a scam... they bother blocked me 🤣 so now where do I get my free $30,000?

  • July 10, 2020 at 5:42 AM by an anonymous user from: Buffalo, New York, United States

    Dave Johnson on Instagram wants the following information by Direct Message:

    Full Name

    Age

    Marital Status

    Full Contact Address

    Mobile Phone Number

    Occupation

    Nationality/Country

    Your Email Address

    Seems that the only thing he hasn't asked me for so far is my DOB and SSN..

    He is right now sending me Direct Messages as well as trying to get me to accept a Video Chat with him.

    He is now claiming that he posted this article online (direct quote)

    "Yeah I posted this online

    Because they are a lot of scammers out there

    Who will be trying to use me as imposters

    I want you to know that you are with the right agent and the right office

    so everything disclose to you here is from the reliable source"

    I tried to have a little fun with him and told him that he could just send the $50K to my PayPal account using paypal.me/MyNameGoesHere and thus didn't need any other information from me.

    He told me he had to have all that information to ensure that I was the rightful owner of the $50,000 funds and that the agent would be delivering the funds to my door.

    I then reported his account to Instagram as spam and as a result his account was immediately blocked.

    Don't be naive or gullible. Be smart and safe.

    • July 20, 2020 at 7:59 AM by an anonymous user from: Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada

      Well I just received the same, he told me I was randomly picked and won 30,0000. Agent ask for

      Name

      Address

      Phone number

      Age

      I ask why would I have to pay if I won that. I told him how do I know for sure? Then he said it’s legit.

  • June 29, 2020 at 4:39 PM by an anonymous user from: Enon, Ohio, United States

    Just a heads up to everybody. The scammers are also using Instagram to scam people. Just received a follow request from "Mr. Johnson" and figured it was fake. Stay safe, be smart.
