Facebook 10th Anniversary Lottery Award Scam

There is no "Facebook 10th Anniversary Lottery Award," therefore, Facebook and other online users are asked to delete messages or Facebook posts, which claim that they have won the same award, lottery or promotion. 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 Online Award Promo" 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.
