I found a Facebook page for the Foundation, copied the email, and got a reply to contact his PA at philiptalor12-gmIl.com.

Thank goodness I keep my FB page accessible to only friends and friends of friends.

I got one of those and when I asked him “Why me”,he said he cannot make anymore money and wants to help people. I received two e-mails after that, but they don’t ask for money. Not yet anyway.

yes I also got this mail

I almost felt for this. They have my name address and phone number but nothing else. This site save me from going forward their need to be serious consequences for these fraudsters

I received an email from a guy from Houston Texas claiming to be a friend of Stefano Pessina. But I questioned him when he needed me to deposit bank charges before receiving donations. Why are people scaming poor people who barely can't afford food on their tables? I wonder what has gone wrong with humanity

Be careful guys. It is a big scam. It is US$3,000,000.00 Now.

The new scam is for $3 mil now. Bozo's

You'd think if Mr. Pessina was worth $10 billion he could afford to hire someone who knows proper grammar and spelling.

Here is current scam info:
