I believe there may be another scam going around. It's from Miss Mackenzie's Facebook page. I sent a message through Facebook asking how I would go about asking her foundation for a donation. She responded advising me to contact her P.A. He came back and said I needed to join her foundation in order to receive a donation. $1500. for a membership. Since the article above stated the foundation will never ask for money, I'm curious if it was legit. thanks
