Lottery - Donation
Lottery scammers are using several social media and email scams like the one below to impersonate Cristy Davis to obtain personal financial information and money from potential victims. Cristy Davis will never ask you to share your financial information electronically. If you have received the same emails please delete them, or social media messages when you receive them. And, Cristy Davis, who won $60 Million in the Powerball, will never ask you to send money in order to receive a donation from her.
Remember, once you are asked to send money in order to receive a donation or lottery prize, it is scammers or thieves attempting to trick you into sending them your money.
